The newly opened $1.5 billion Lady Cilento Children’s Hospital in South Brisbane, Australia, has been under fire for lacking basic comforts such as convenient access to food, microwaves in kitchens, washing machines and adequate transport, according to an article on the Courier Mail website.
“Not surprisingly, we’re not as efficient as we can be just yet but with more than 3000 staff and 3800 rooms, it was always going to take time for us to reach our peak,” Children’s Health Queensland chief executive Dr. Peter Steer said.
Steer said all family kitchens now had microwaves and the two public laundries were fully operational.
A second coffee cart is now operational and a fruit vending machine was installed near the main entry.
“Transport services are also running more smoothly as families learn our shuttle timetable and alternatives outside shuttle hours or for transporting immunocompromised children or children in wheelchairs,” Steer said.
