Location
As part of the National Covid-19 response, Leighs, and an expert project team collaborated to deliver a fast-tracked urgent expansion of Christchurch Hospital for the CDHB. This project was delivered in a tight time frame, within a busy acute live hospital environment.
The ICU Pod 4 project consisted of the fit out of a 615m2 shell space to create 12 additional beds for Christchurch Hospital’s Intensive Care Unit (ICU), bringing the total to 48 beds. This was completed in an expedited 15-week construction programme, with the new ICU space handed over on 29 April 2022, rather than late August as estimated in the initial business case. The collaborative and innovative approach has been recognised at industry Awards.
