New health facilities for North West communities

The Palaszczuk Government’s Building Rural and Remote Health Program is an initiative established to improve infrastructure critical to the delivery of health services in rural and remote communities.

Normanton Hospital, Camooweal Health Centre and Doomadgee Hospital are the health facilities in the region that will be replaced. The existing facilities have served the communities well, but they are ageing and in need of replacement.

Members of the North West HHS Executive Leadership Team visited

Normanton and Camooweal to share the initial plans with staff and community members. Feedback was provided on the plans and marked another step in the planning process.

These new replacement facilities are very welcomed in the North West and will improve both the staff and patient experience across our rural and remote areas.

We look forward to keeping you updated as things progress with these exciting capital projects.
