Senior Director of Operations and Sustainability Tony Gill on the importance of sustainable hospital infrastructure for delivering better patient outcomes
In healthcare, small margins matter. Gone are the days when delivering the best possible outcomes relied solely on highly skilled clinicians, industry leading research or the most innovative medical devices. Instead, every aspect of the healthcare experience, including the very infrastructure within which patients are treated, needs to be optimised. Even down to details like air quality, natural light volumes, how comfortable the environment is or its energy dependence.
Tony Gill and his colleagues at Northwest Healthcare Properties call this‘ properties that serve a greater purpose’. Their work involves delivering healthcare real estate that looks to be resilient, highperforming and sustainable to enable the best possible health outcomes for the global communities that rely on them.
Tony has spent more than 20 years in building management and technical operations across the retail, commercial, industrial and health sectors. Over this period, he has worked with some of Australia’ s leading companies.
Tony joined Northwest Healthcare, which is part of a global healthcare real estate trust, in 2021. In his role as Senior Director of Operations and Sustainability for ANZ, he is responsible for leading the region’ s operational performance
