Description
PURPOSE OF GUIDELINEThis Health Planning Unit (HPU) has been developed for use by project staff ‐ architects,
planners, engineers, project managers and other consultants, and for end users, to
facilitate the process of planning and design.
It is intended to assist with the planning and design of a unit that will be fit for purpose in
accordance with its designated service delineation / capability and defined catchment
population.
It is a new HPU issued for Australasian use in 2013. Its development has been informed by
an extensive consultation process.
