The Vision for the Estate
Improving our hospital for tomorrow’s patients
We aim to deliver compassionate and safe patient care to the people of Great Yarmouth and Waveney, from premises which are fit-for-purpose for the delivery of high quality healthcare. This is why the Trust has a ‘site strategy’ which aims to create a health campus over the next 5 to 10 years, to help meet the needs of patients, visitors and staff in the years ahead and make maximum use of our land. The main hospital site was designed and built c. four decades ago and with sustained increases of demand in services across the region and an aging estate it is crucial that a new health campus is delivered to support the healthcare needs of the region. The Trust has been selected under the Government’s £13bn Health Infrastructure Plan (HIP) to develop plans for the new health campus with an aim to secure c. £300m of funding to realise these ambitions. Key deliverables include: • Co-location of all outpatients departments to a new dedicated facility • The redevelopment of the A&E department • Extensive redevelopment of ward facilities to ensure high levels of patient care and experience • Increased car parking capacity delivered over an efficient footprint • The redevelopment of a purpose built accommodation village to replace existing ageing accommodation • The creation of new dedicated research, education and training facilities • Investing in leisure, fitness and wellbeing facilities to benefit both patients and staff • The creation of a new administrative building • The development of facilities to support generating of commercial income, such as additional food retail and consumer retail space and conferencing and events space.
