Serving the population in the eastern part of Singapore, Changi General Hospital is a 800-bed facility that offers a comprehensive range of medical and paramedical services housed in a nine-storey building.
The hospital is designed to optimise the use of land, energy and manpower. The wards are located in tower blocks of north-south orientation to minimise direct sunlight and capitalise on prevailing wind directions. The H-shaped ward tower sits on top of a podium that houses the general diagnostic and treatment facilities, specialist clinics and other supporting departments. The hospital's design also creates a clear segregation among the circulation of visitors, in-patients, out-patients, emergency cases, mortuary and other services. Tapping on the benefits of technology, the hospital has implemented the Automatic Guided Vehicle (AGV) system, Pneumatic Tube system and Pneumatic Chute system for greater efficiency.
Besides its colourful, non-institutional-looking interior, the hospital is also decorated with landscaped gardens, water features and colourful flower motifs throughout the premise to create a vibrant, cheerful and friendly ambience.
This project is a winner of the Building and Construction Authority Energy Efficient Award.
