St John of God Subiaco Hospital redevelopment

A staged transformation of our hospital that will enable us to meet the future health care needs of Western Australians.

St John of God Subiaco Hospital is embarking on a major redevelopment to ensure the campus remains a world-class private hospital of clinical excellence into the future. 

The redevelopment will build on the hospital’s 126-year legacy of delivering quality, patient-centred care consistent with its Mission

The redevelopment will: 

  • Create an eight-storey new clinical building featuring a dedicated Mother and Baby Centre, Heart Centre, six new operating theatres and Chapel;
  • Create hotel-like facilities and amenities with spacious, single rooms;
  • Replace critical engineering infrastructure currently at or nearing end of useful life;
  • Deliver a new site energy plant to reduce energy consumption;
  • Connect the hospital to the wider community; and 
  • Provide additional clinical capacity required to meet forecast future demand. 

The redevelopment consists of four key stages of work, which were presented to the St John of God Health Care Board in 2020. 

The master plan for the site was approved by the Western Australian Planning Commission in May 2023.

Stage One was completed in late 2023. This includes:

  • A temporary caregiver carpark, to increase parking options for patients and visitors;
  • Upgrade and expansion of kitchen and installation of modern, state-of-the-art equipment. Implementation of hospital wide a la carte dining;
  • Expanded and upgraded Sterilisation Services Department with improved functionality;
  • North main distribution board replacement;

  • A new, six bed, negative pressure isolation ward.

  • Secondary and tertiary engineering upgrades

  • New site energy plant and site water plant;
  • High voltage switch relocation;
  • Multi-storey carpark remediation; and
  • Upgraded hospital entrance and lobby refurbishment, including new reception counter, floor finishes and digital signage.
