The new children's hospital and ambulatory and urgent care centre is being planned and designed to conform with all disability regulations for buildings. A Family Forum, consisting of parents and guardians of children accessing existing children's hospitals, has been established to work with the design team on the detailed hospital design. Representatives from families of children with physical, intellectual and sensory disabilities are members of this Forum.
