New Mullewa Community Hospital progressing

Construction of the new $25.1 million Mullewa Community Hospital continues to make strong progress, with the building now fully enclosed, weatherproof, and secure following the installation of its windows and doors.

External brickwork and wall cladding have now been completed, while internal works including electrical, mechanical, plumbing, insulation, and wall lining continue to progress.

Once complete, the new hospital will enhance access to health care for the Mullewa community by providing 24/7 emergency care alongside a range of health services under one roof, including:

• state-of-the-art virtual health facilities;
• group therapy rooms;
• respite and palliation;
• allied health consultation rooms and treatment spaces;
• multi-purpose consultation rooms; and
• an ambulance bay.

The project is part of the State Government's record $5.5 billion investment in health infrastructure that includes significant investments across the Midwest region such as the redevelopment of Geraldton Hospital and a new radiation oncology unit at the hospital, ensuring regional Western Australians have access to modern health care close to home.
