Rockhampton Hospital is the main base hospital within Central Queensland with a population
pool of about 200,000. The first stage of major redevelopment of the hospital commenced in
mid 2007 and includes a new Emergency Department, Rehabilitation Unit, Maternity and
Paediatrics Units, Dialysis Unit, and Learning and Development Centre, together with the consolidation
of a number of outlying services into the main hospital complex.
These improvements will enable the establishment of a new general ward which will increase the hospital's capacity by 30 beds. Stage 1 is scheduled for completion in early 2011.
