Facilities for patients and visitors at Adelaide’s Flinders Medical Centre are much improved following an $185.5 million investment.

The public teaching hospital and medical school has a new rehabilitation centre; a new centre for the Older Persons’ Mental Health Service; a dedicated orthogeriatric service; and new space for Southern Adelaide Palliative Services. A new multi-deck carpark provides 1,220 additional car spaces and brings visitors and patients closer to the hospital.

The upgrade has enabled improved patient safety and privacy. New gyms, a hydrotherapy pool and access to shared garden spaces add to patient wellbeing, aiding recovery and rehabilitation. Air Design MINItherm, MODUtherm and SM series air handling units optimise the indoor conditions and occupant comfort.
