The Minderoo Children’s Comprehensive Cancer Centre, which is redefining children cancer research and care in Australia, claims to be the first institution that operates in the nation.
The hospital’s design prioritises family-centred care and support, with expanded private spaces, recreational areas, kitchens, and the installation of single patient bedrooms throughout the service.
Its interior design was designed with feedback from almost 2,000 patient families, staff members, and community members, and was influenced by the nearby shoreline and indigenous flora.
