The facility, as part of the over $538m Shellharbour Hospital and integrated services project, will feature an expanded emergency department, increased surgical capacity, and renal dialysis. The design also includes provisions for a future rooftop helipad.
Moreover, the hospital will offer rehabilitation and aged care, outpatient care, and acute medical services.
