Our hospital and healthcare facilities are expanding!
Our new wing will open mid-August 2024.
We know the difference that being treated closer to home can make
It’s with this in mind, and the growing needs of our local community, that we have invested in the expansion of our facilities.
Did you know that by 2030, the Flat Bush area will be home to over 70,000 people. That’s a city the size of Tauranga! In addition to our growing community, demand for health services in the Counties Manukau area is growing at a rate that is exceeding the development of services. Ormiston Hospital & Healthcare is located within a high population growth zone with a diverse socioeconomic landscape.
Our new hospital wing is crucial in preparing for this growth. The expansion of our services ensures that the community has the healthcare infrastructure necessary to support our growing local population.
Our new facilities
The increase in capacity will mean many local residents who require endoscopy services will no longer have to travel to the central city or North Shore for their treatment.
Here’s what our expansion means in numbers:
An additional 4,500 square metres hospital wing
Double the capacity for Endoscopy services
Three new procedure rooms
Fifteen additional beds
An additional 900 square metres of consulting space
And scope to further expand our surgical capacity
da Vinci Surgical Robotics – now at Ormiston Hospital
In addition to the $38m invested in the expansion of our facilities, we have invested a further $3m in surgical robotics.
Our vision is to be healthcare hub of excellence, chosen by our communities. Part of bringing this vision to life is investing in innovative healthcare solutions that improve patient care and outcomes.
The addition of da Vinci surgical robotics to Ormiston Hospital increases our scope to offer minimally invasive procedures with improved recovery times for patients. This investment in innovation is also a great opportunity for us to attract leading healthcare talent to join our team.
Our Whakawātea te Ara (blessing)
On 26th June, we had the honour of blessing our new building.
This spiritual and cultural blessing, led by a Manawhenua Kaumatua pre-dawn, cleansed and purified our new wing.
