Construction of the Mullewa Community Hospital now complete

The State Government has delivered the new Mullewa Community Hospital, with construction of the hospital building now complete.

Part of the government's record $5.5 billion health infrastructure investment, the purpose-built hospital will give Mullewa and surrounding communities access to modern facilities that support care closer to home.

The new building has reached practical completion just over 12 months after main works began, with WA Country Health Service now developing operational commissioning plans to transition services to the facility in the coming months.

The $25.1 million hospital will include a new 24/7 emergency department with one acute bay and one resuscitation bay, alongside a flexible inpatient bed for patients requiring respite, palliation or an overnight admission.

Equipped with the latest virtual care technology, the facility will also feature:

• more consulting spaces for primary care, outpatient and population health services;
• a community home supported dialysis chair in a dedicated fit-for-purpose space; and
• a new ambulance bay, administration areas, laundry and kitchen.

Remaining project works, including demolition of the old hospital, are expected to be completed in early 2027.

The Mullewa Community Hospital build forms part of the State Government's investment in modernising hospitals and health services across Western Australia.
