St John Urgent Care Centre, Cannington

Swan delivered a full medical centre fitout for St John at 1472 Albany Highway, Cannington, turning a retail tenancy into a compliant medical centre for general practice, dental care, allied health, urgent care and specialised medical services.

Location: Albany Highway, Cannington
Designers: Modus
Size: 1,200 m²
Duration: 14 weeks
The team closely coordinated with stakeholders and consultants to integrate clinical infrastructure while meeting strict medical facility standards. By managing this complex scope, Swan hit program targets and kept services running with minimal disruption.

Fitout scope and technical upgrades

A major component of the medical fitout involved significant hydraulic and structural modifications. This included trenching works throughout the site to accommodate new plumbing systems, along with major hydraulic upgrades necessary to support medical operations across multiple health disciplines. These services were planned and staged to allow for concurrent installation of structural framing and internal linings. Specialist areas, such as the radiology suites, required targeted construction solutions. Lead lining was installed in the X-ray rooms to ensure compliance with radiation safety standards. These installations were carefully managed to meet health regulations while maintaining the program schedule. Additional attention was paid to acoustic treatment and shielding requirements for high-sensitivity treatment areas. The Swan team coordinated the installation of essential clinical equipment and support infrastructure across the facility. This included mechanical services, electrical and data systems, medical gas points, and other integrated services required for the medical and dental practices. Clinical joinery and fit-for-purpose furniture were installed to meet the functional layout of each practice type, supporting optimal patient flow. The fitout also addressed energy efficiency and durability through the specification of commercial-grade finishes and fittings. Floor coverings, wall protection, and ceiling systems were selected based on hygiene, maintenance, and regulatory requirements. The internal configuration incorporated staff amenities, administrative zones, consult rooms, procedure rooms, and waiting areas to align with operational workflows.

Delivered ahead of relocation

Swan completed the project in January 2021, ahead of the scheduled six-week relocation period into the new premises. Final commissioning and equipment calibration were carried out in coordination with St John’s medical teams and specialist providers. The result was a fully operational medical centre inside what had been a retail space, supporting urgent care and allied health operations with treatment spaces, administrative zones and compliance-ready service rooms. All aspects of the fitout were aligned with regulatory and clinical performance standards. Swan delivers medical centre and healthcare fitouts for operators across Perth, and this project shows that capability applied within an active commercial precinct. Every stage of delivery was aligned to St John’s requirements for medical compliance, service integration and program certainty. The outcome is a medical hub that delivers community health services efficiently and sustainably.
