Contractor appointed for Hedland MRI suite
The State Government has engaged ADCO Constructions under an Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) procurement process for the $15 million Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) suite at Hedland Health Campus.
The ECI process allows contractors to participate in a collaborative approach, enabling early engagement of the builder to progress the design alongside project teams.
Once complete, the suite - which is designed to house specialised MRI equipment - will include:
- MRI scanning room;
- control room;
- anaesthetic preparation room;
- plant and equipment spaces and support facilities; and
- reception and sub-wait areas with changerooms and amenities.
The suite will be a standalone facility adjacent to existing diagnostic services provided by the Hedland Health Campus Medical Imaging Department, including Computed Tomography (CT), X-ray, fluoroscopy and ultrasound.
The new facility is expected to provide more than 2,000 occasions of service to residents in South Hedland, Newman, Karratha, Dampier, Tom Price, Onslow and Paraburdoo each year.
