(b) The additional staff will commence over the next two years.

(2) The enhanced urology model of care at Calvary Public Hospital will be implemented in a staged manner from 1 July 2020. There will be a phased introduction of procedures and outpatient clinic services, in line with additional theatre capacity brought on line at Calvary and in collaboration with Canberra Health Services. The number of procedures, and volume and nature of outpatient clinic services at Calvary, are yet to be determined but will reflect Calvary’s role in a territory-wide urology service.

(3) Outpatient services under the new model of care will be consistent with Calvary’s roles in a territory-wide urology service. The capacity of the service will be sufficient to provide timely and high-quality treatment and care for patients requiring elective and emergency urology services at Calvary.
