The redevelopment of Whyalla Hospital, is a critical project that will enhance healthcare services for the regional SA community. 

 

  • 70% increase in treatment bays in the Emergency Department, with 12 new bays added. 
  • New facilities including a negative pressure isolation room, behavioural assessment rooms, and a triage and assessment zone. 
  • Upgrade of the High Dependency Unit with beds relocated closer to the Emergency Department for quicker, more efficient care. 
  • Improvements to waiting rooms, reception areas, and patient transfer pathways, ensuring better functionality and enhanced patient care. 

 

Staged work will continue throughout the redevelopment, with all hospital services operating as usual. Sitzler has a long history of working in regional Australia and contributing to the community, and we look forward to delivering this vital project for Whyalla.
