Ryde Redevelopment News Consumer Reference Group site tour On Wednesday 18 June, members of the Ryde Hospital Redevelopment Consumer Reference Group (CRG) joined members of the Integrated Project Team on a sunny winter’s day for a site tour to view the latest progress on construction works. During the visit, the group was guided by members of the project team through several key areas of the hospital campus. This included the interim kitchen located on the rooftop of Denistone House, the newly completed Intensive Care Unit, and areas for upcoming construction. The site tour provided an opportunity to explain anticipated construction impacts, gather feedback, and to help ensure the project continues its commitment to keeping the CRG, staff and the community regularly informed as construction progresses. Following the tour, AW Edwards, the project's lead
contractor, delivered a construction update, outlining recent achievements, upcoming milestones, and their ongoing efforts to ensure a safe and accessible environment for staff, patients, and visitors.
The session also gave CRG members the chance to ask questions directly to the builder and to share their lived experiences accessing health services. This kind of real-time, two-way feedback is instrumental in helping the team deliver a hospital that meets the needs of the local community. As construction continues, the CRG will play a vital role in shaping the future of Ryde Hospital, providing a valuable link between the community and the integrated project team. Their valuable insights influence key aspects of the redevelopment, from campus signage and wayfinding to furniture selection and the hospital’s arts strategy.
