Health Infrastructure is planning to redevelop Bathurst Hospital, to meet the healthcare needs of the community now, and into the future.
OVERVIEW
The Bathurst Hospital Redevelopment will ensure the local community and wider Central West region will have access to high quality care now and into the future.
The NSW Government has committed $200 million to the Bathurst Hospital Redevelopment. The redevelopment is in addition to the NSW Government’s support for the purchase and construction of a new MRI, at a cost of over $4 million, which is now complete.
BENEFITS

- Redevelop the existing hospital to provide patients, carers and visitors with modern health facilities which can offer first-class care as close to home as possible
- Expand clinical services
- Improve the experience of hospital for patient, carers and visitors
- Grow Bathurst as a major health hub for surrounding communities including Blayney, Oberon and Rylstone
- Help attract and retain valuable health care staff by delivering fit for purpose, contemporary working environments
- Boost the local economy through construction and health jobs, and business opportunities.
SCOPE
The project includes:
- A mix of new and refurbished areas
- An expanded Emergency Department and maternity unit
- A new mental health inpatient unit (Panorama Clinic),
- Improvements to inpatient, outpatient and community health services, operating theatres, and a new integrated paediatrics zone.
