Ballarat Base Hospital – ED Clinical Decisions Unit

Ballarat Base Hospital - ED Clinical Decisions Unit

Morton+Co is working collaboratively with Lyons Architecture to deliver the Ballarat Base Hospital Redevelopment projects. As part of this redevelopment, Morton+Co recently completed the Emergency Department Clinical Decisions Unit within the live hospital environment, including both demolition and new internal fitout with specialist equipment.

The design of the emergency department (ED) was primarily guided by the ethos of functionality and rapid responsiveness. This space was designed to accommodate a high volume of patients with varying degrees of medical issues, efficiently and without delay.

The layout is strategically planned to optimise workflows, safety and accessibility, while minimising travel distances between critical areas. The design incorporated resilient materials and surfaces that are easy to clean and maintain.

BADAC

Ballarat and District Aboriginal Co-operative

The Ballarat and District Aboriginal Co-operative (BADAC) was established by members of the Ballarat and district Aboriginal community in 1979.

The staged development of the existing BADAC site in Armstrong Street North, is comprised of the significant development of this two storey medical facility along with allied health, linked to the existing structure.

The purpose-built facility was designed to create a culturally welcoming environment and provide a range of services for indigenous and non-indigenous people in Victoria’s greater Western region.

The building design and layout reflects the needs and input from community members and staff. The result is a space which is culturally sensitive and promotes understanding, respect and celebration of indigenous culture while enabling efficient service delivery.
