Taylor, Health Infrastructure (HI), and Western NSW Local Health District (WNSWLHD) recently came together for a Sod Turning Ceremony to mark the start of construction at the Blayney Multipurpose Service (MPS) Redevelopment.
To commence the afternoon, a Welcome to Country was performed and then attendees heard from HI and WNSWLHD representatives. The traditional ‘turning of the soil’ then took place, with tea and cakes enjoyed afterwards with the aged care residents who call the MPS their home.
This project will be delivered by our Regional team, Project Manager George Stegnjaic, and a special mention to Site Manager, Tim Fitzgerald and his family who have relocated their lives away from family and friends to deliver this important project for the local community. Tim’s children stole the show as they enthusiastically participated in the sod-turning ceremony, engaging with the community and adding a personal touch to the event.
The redevelopment will provide a one-stop hub for services featuring a new residential aged care wing with all single rooms, an Inpatient Unit supporting palliative care, an expanded HealthOne, and emergency and ambulatory care services. These significant improvements will create more modern, fit-for-purpose facilities that enable a seamless care experience and will meet the growing health needs of the Blayney community for years to come.
Team Taylor looks forward to delivering this redevelopment that will provide improved access to health and aged care services for the Blayney community.
