Completed in August 2015, the redevelopment of the Launceston General Hospital Specialist Clinic brings a contemporary, patient focused outpatient clinic to the Northern Tasmanian public.

Developed in conjunction with the hospital user group, the design adopted a POD model of delivery to increase patient privacy and create a better care experience. The POD layout incorporates a series of smaller, more private patient receptions each with their own private waiting area and views to the new garden entry. These external views, paired with the use of natural materials and colours actively reduce the clinical feel of the space.

The POD design also allows for flexibility in service delivery and supports contemporary workflows, offering 4 patient receptions and waiting areas, 20 consult rooms, 4 treatment rooms, 2 observations rooms and a fast track, which can be used dynamically based on demand for particular clinic types.
