The new hospital aims to offer residents closer access to healthcare and reduce travel time to other major hospitals in South-East Queensland.
Minister for Health, Mental Health and Ambulance Services Shannon Fentiman expects the project to be a ‘game-changer’.
Fentiman noted: “This major milestone is yet another example of the Queensland Government’s commitment to delivering a world-class public health system for all Queenslanders.
“The new Coomera Hospital will make a significant difference to Gold Coast locals by bringing healthcare closer to home and taking the pressure off the Gold Coast University and Robina hospitals.”
With the population catchment of Coomera Hospital anticipated to double by 2036, the master plan allows for future expansion of services to meet the growing community’s needs.
Preparatory works have already begun, with the project scheduled to complete in H2 2027.
