The NSW Government has announced $260 million to build a sustainable, modern and purpose-built hospital to support the needs of the entire Eurobodalla Shire from Narooma to Batemans Bay.
The new Eurobodalla Regional Hospital will include:
- An emergency department
- An eight bed Intensive Care Unit (ICU) /Close Observation Unit (COU)
- Increased capacity for chemotherapy treatments and increased access to renal dialysis
- Surgical and operating theatres and a day stay surgical unit
- Expanded medical imaging, including MRI
- Ambulatory care for community outpatient services
- Paediatric and maternity services, and a special care nursery
- Mental health beds for short term admissions, and
- Enhanced education and training facilities, including a simulation laboratory.
The new Eurobodalla Regional Hospital will be larger than both Moruya and Batemans Bay hospitals combined, designed with the capacity to grow as demand for services changes.
Using the latest technology and models of care, the new hospital will deliver patient-centred health services closer to home.
We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of Country, the tribal groups that make up the Yuin Nation, on which the New Eurobodalla Regional Hospital will be built.
