Milestone reached at Mullewa Community Hospital redevelopment

The $19.6 million Mullewa Community Hospital redevelopment has reached a major milestone, with slab pours complete, and structural steel installation soon to get underway.

Western Australian-owned and operated EMCO Building is delivering the main works package of the new facility, which is adjacent to the existing hospital.

The main works phase follows the demolition of the ageing nursing quarters and a forward works program to prepare the site for footings and formwork. 

The new hospital will offer modern, purpose-built facilities to support a wide range of health services including 24/7 emergency care, an ambulance bay, respite and palliation, outpatient treatment, and community health programs.

Treatment spaces will also be equipped with the very latest in virtual healthcare technology, providing greater patient access to specialist care close to home.
