3:30 PM Leading by Example: Strategies to Ensure Planning and Commissioning Success for the Refurbished $270 Million St George Hospital

The newly refurbished St George Hospital is not only the largest hospital within the South Eastern Sydney Local Health District but is among the leading centres for trauma and emergency management in the State. With over 200 patients successfully transferred into the new build, this is equivalent to one third of the hospital community and was no small feat. Learn how to ensure planning and commissioning success for large change management projects by:

Planning change management very early on to ensure your commissioning is a success
Identifying, understanding and addressing the different expectations of risk across the project, construction and operations teams in the lead up to the transition
Involving relevant staff in the process for a constructive inter-disciplinary approach
