Temporary Moves to Accommodate Earthquake Repairs: CHOC, GAU
The Child Haematology Oncology Centre (CHOC) And The
Gynaecology Assessment Unit Temporarily Move To Accommodate
Earthquake Repairs
The Child Haematology
Oncology Centre (CHOC) and the Gynaecology Assessment Unit
are on the move to allow for earthquake repair work
scheduled from this week. Child Health Service Manager Anne
Morgan says CHOC will temporarily relocate from Riverside to
the Gynaecology Assessment Unit in Christchurch Women’s
Hospital and the unit will temporarily move to the
Gynaecology Ward for about two weeks.
The move will also see the Paediatric High Dependency Unit temporarily move to some unaffected CHOC rooms and Ward 21 and 22 combine. “The temporary relocation is a result of the need for earthquake repair and strengthening work to be carried out around doorway entrances to the children’s wards,” Anne says.
“We apologise for the disruption this causes to
staff, patients and any visitors to the hospital. The repair
work is part of the scheduled repairs and seismic
strengthening work that are being undertaken across
Canterbury District Health Board sites.” To learn more
