Client Background

Ramsay Health Care has been providing patient-centered care for years, and the Northside Clinic at St. Leonards is an extension of their vision for good patient health. The new multistorey facility at Northside Clinic is a purpose-built mental health facility with 112 single rooms, day services and on site consulting suites, replacing The Northside Clinic in Greenwich, which was the second hospital to open under Paul Ramsay in 1973.

Scope of works

Our Australian partner, SMI National, approached Northside Clinic with the purpose of helping improve their patient's experience in the hospital. 2 living walls were requested for the dining space, where SMI used a combination of species and colour to create a vibrant addition to the space, bringing nature closer to the patients and allowing them to experience the benefits of biophilic design first-hand.
