Frankston Hospital redevelopment: Drop-in information sessions
About these events
The Frankston and Mornington Peninsula community was invited to information sessions to learn more about the Frankston Hospital redevelopment in March 2023.
About the Frankston Hospital redevelopment
The Frankston Hospital redevelopment will deliver a new 12-storey clinical services tower and main entrance. It will include 130 more beds, new spaces for mental health and oncology services and 15 new operating theatres.
With more families choosing to make Frankston home, the redevelopment will also deliver expanded women’s and children’s services. This includes new maternity, obstetrics and paediatric wards, a women’s clinic and a special care nursery.
Once completed, the redeveloped hospital will have the capacity to treat approximately 35,000 more patient episodes each year - cutting wait times and reducing pressure on other Melbourne hospitals.
Construction is underway, with main works expected to be completed in 2025.
Learn more about the Frankston Hospital redevelopment via our dedicated project page.
Drop-in information sessions were held in March 2023, providing the Frankston and Mornington Peninsula community the opportunity to meet the project team, builder and design team delivering the Frankston Hospital redevelopment.
Residential alcohol and other drugs treatment facility for Mildura and the Mallee
We're building a $36 million alcohol and other drugs treatment facility for Mildura and the Mallee.
The residential rehabilitation facility will be located at 13 Jenner Street in Merbein.
The new residential rehabilitation facility means people seeking alcohol and drug treatment and support in Mildura and the Mallee can get the help they need without needing to travel long distances or leave the local support networks they rely on. It will be the first facility of its kind in the region.
University Hospital Geelong children’s emergency department
The Victorian Government invested $20 million to deliver a dedicated children’s emergency department at the University Hospital Geelong.
The new paediatric emergency department includes 28 treatment spaces, including fast-track and short-stay beds. A separate triage system and waiting area was delivered along with new treatment rooms and support areas.
The facility was designed to provide a private, calm and reassuring environment for children and their families.
