Wyvern Private Hospital is a contemporary surgical and rehabilitation facility situated in bushland on Sydney’s Northern Beaches. The 85-bed hospital offers an advanced clinical environment that balances state-of-the-art medical infrastructure with a design approach centred on care, calm and connection to place. The project was designed with direct input from clinicians, and includes eight operating theatres including a hybrid theatre, a cardiac catheter lab, 56 surgical inpatient beds, 20 rehab beds and nine intensive care beds. It also houses a hydrotherapy pool, physiotherapy suite, radiology, pathology, pharmacy, specialist consulting suites and on-site rehabilitation services. This 13,600 sqm facility is unique because it is designed as a series of separated pavilions which allow natural light to penetrate deep into the building. Inpatient rooms have views through full height glazing to bushland and the flat roofs are landscaped as green roofs. Hacer Group have successfully delivered a well-crafted building that sits well within its bushland setting.
