The Dr Peter Thomas Helipad

Artists impression of helipadThe first stage of Princess Alexandra Hospital's Emergency Department Expansion will be the construction of a roof-top helipad on the south-east corner of the main hospital building, due for completion in March 2010

The helipad features a "hot lift" from the roof directly to the new Emergency Department's resuscitation room, allowing timely transfers for critically ill patients.

Currently, the helipad is being built and will be shipped to Brisbane where it will be assembled and installed on the PAH site.

In March 2009, the helipad was officially named the Dr Peter Thomas Helipad.
