The current estimated end-date for the proposed upgrade of Kalgoorlie Regional Hospital is the financial year ending June 2012. However, due to the volume of construction work occurring in Western Australia, there may be some variation to this estimated end-date, which cannot be seen at this point in time.
The estimated cash flow for this project is as follows and is predicated on a completion date of June 2012:
· 2007-2008 - $ 0.30 million;
· 2008-2009 - $ 2.80 million;
· 2009-2010 - $10.72 million;
· 2010-2011 - $ 17.43 million;
· 2011-2012 - $ 8.68 million; and
· 2012-2013 - $ 0.07 million.
The project is subject to a comprehensive business case submission to the Department of Treasury and Finance. Detailed costings for each stage will form part of the documentation work within the final business case, which is yet to be approved. The preferred option in the business case includes building a new clinical block incorporating Emergency Department, High Dependency Unit, Medical Imaging and Medical Records, and enhancing the Day Surgery Ward, Theatres and sterilisation areas. In addition, a new palliative care unit will be constructed and the old Emergency Department will be partially refurbished for use by Allied Health.
A Forward Works Package of approximately $2.8 million is proposed in 2008/09 and will include urgent work to address drainage issues near the Emergency Department, construction of a new lift between the Emergency Department and Medical Imaging; and replacement of the emergency generator.
