RM475mil facilities to complement Cyberjaya’s offerings as a Global Tech Hub
CYBERJAYA: The community of Cyberjaya will see the completion of its first hospital in the area by 2020. Spanning 12.8 acres in the vicinity of Cyber 11, the 288-bed facility will serve the residents of Cyberjaya and also those in Puchong, Dengkil and Sepang.
The public hospital will consist of a nine-storey complex and will be complemented by an eight-storey carpark with a total of 965 parking bays.
“Hospital Cyberjaya is an example of efforts by the government in providing smart facilities and solutions for the rakyat as the country forges ahead in increasing the standards of our healthcare system,” said Minister of Health Malaysia Datuk Seri Dr S. Subramaniam at the groundbreaking ceremony of the hospital.
According to the Health Minister, this hospital will be built with attention paid to environmental sustainability and energy-efficient design features.
“Apart from Hospital Cyberjaya, approximately ten other hospitals are being built in the country that is designed with green features, adhering to the Green Building Index (GBI) certification standards of sustainability. On that note, I am pleased to announce that Hospital Cyberjaya will be the first hospital in the country to achieve Platinum Rating under the GBI certification standards,” he added in the statement.
The sustainability features of the RM475mil facility include optimal solar orientation and solar energy harvesting technology. Upon its expected completion date in November 2020, the hospital will also help to reduce congestion at public hospitals in nearby Putrajaya and Serdang by serving a broader community beyond Cyberjaya.
“Announcement for Hospital Cyberjaya could not have come at a more significant time as the city celebrates its 20-year journey of transformation,” said Cyberview Sdn Bhd acting managing director Mohd Najib Ibrahim.
Hospital Cyberjaya will be the pioneer hospital to use full modules under HIS@KKM, a government hospital information system platform used to efficiently manage systems including the Pharmacy Information System, Patient Management System, and Critical Care Information System.
