Work is underway on the $154 million Calvary Bethlehem Health and Retirement Precinct in Caulfield South. The integrated development will bring retirement living, community care, GPs, other primary health care services, residential care, and Calvary Bethlehem’s existing specialist care services together in one location.

The development will include 69 independent living units; an 83-bed residential care facility; specialist services for palliative patients and people with progressive neurological conditions; GP, allied health, and related services; and community care services. There will also be a library, business centre, gymnasium, and pool; retail space and cafes.

Construction is expected to be completed in late 2022. The precinct is being built on the site of the former Calvary Bethlehem hospital on Kooyong Road. Construction began late last year.

For the fit out of the Calvary Bethlehem Health and Retirement Precinct, Armcor were pleased to provide state-of-the-art, energy efficient solutions as per the specifications of the project. The Armcor equipment selected for this project included the XEC Chilled/Hot water coil unit, XEP External Mount units in the economy cycle and XCM Compact Multiflow ERV Unit.

Each of these units were manufactured and produced to optimise the fresh air requirements and provide the comfort levels that the elderly community deserves.
