The NSW Government’s $1 billion commitment to the Nepean Redevelopment means a significant boost in health services and facilities for local communities.
Bringing first-class health care to the booming populations of Penrith and its surrounding areas, the expansion and upgrade will occur in two stages.
Stage 1 will deliver $550 million of contemporary, integrated clinical and community-based health services.
Centre-piecing Stage 1 will be a new 14-storey clinical services tower housing:
- a new, expanded emergency department;
- over 12 new operating theatres;
- 18 new birthing suites;
- a new neonatal intensive care unit;
- expanded and upgraded medical imaging;
- new community health services;
- over 200 overnight beds; and
- a new helipad.
Stage 1 will also expand the cancer centre and deliver a new $26 million multi-storey car park. This will double chemotherapy chairs to 30 and provide over 600 extra parking spots.
Construction commenced in 2019, and is being delivered in partnership with the Nepean Blue Mountains Local Health District.
Planning of Nepean redevelopment’s $450 million Stage 2 is underway and construction will follow Stage 1 completion.
