The New Dunedin Hospital will benefit generations of people across the Southern region. The state of the art, fit for purpose facility is currently the largest ever health infrastructure investment in New Zealand.
The New Dunedin Hospital will be a modern, efficient and patient-centred teaching hospital. With a five Green Star sustainability rating, the building's design and use of latest technology will mean greater efficiency, including patient flow around the hospital and better access to diagnostics and treatment spaces, reducing unnecessary delays.
