NEW HOSPITAL BUILDINGS
Tenders are being called for extensions to the Lyttelton Hospital, and tenders will be called within the next few days for a chapel at Burwood Hospital. The chapel at Burwood is to be built with funds collected by public subscription last year. The extensions at Lyttelton involve the present hospital being joined by two new single-bed wards to a neighbouring house, which will be converted to provide three staff bedrooms and staff sitting-room, bathroom, and kitchen, and a dayroom, lavatory, and small private garden for the patients. The existing hospital building will be extensively rearranged internally and a staff dining-room built on. The extensions will increase the capacity of the hospital from five beds to seven.
