Health Infrastructure is planning to build the new Eurobodalla Regional Hospital, providing a modern and purpose-built facility to support the needs of the Eurobodalla Shire from Narooma to Batemans Bay.
OVERVIEW
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.
The NSW Government has committed $260 million to the new Eurobodalla Regional Hospital Development.

- Help attract and retain high-quality staff in a modern working environment that supports excellence in clinical practice and education
- Provide positive economic and social benefits within the Eurobodalla and surrounding communities through employment, skills development, and local expenditure, during construction and into operation.

The project includes:
- Emergency Department
- An eight bed Intensive Care / Close Observation Unit
- Increased capacity for chemotherapy and increased access to renal dialysis
