Health Infrastructure is delivering a new hospital within the Wentworth community to provide comprehensive, accessible and consumer friendly healthcare services close to home.
OVERVIEW
A contemporary health facility will improve the community’s access to health services and deliver additional inpatient and community outpatient health services, reducing the need for residents to travel to Victoria to access services.
The new hospital will provide a significant improvement on the current 80-year-old Wentworth District Hospital facility.
The NSW Government has committed $30 million to deliver the Wentworth Health Service Redevelopment.
BENEFITS
