Satellite hospital locations identified

New satellite hospital sites announced in Caboolture, Pine Rivers, Redlands, and the Gold Coast to help take the pressure off our health system. In addition to these, satellite hospitals will also be built in Brisbane Southside, Bribie Island and Ripley. A $2 billion Hospital Building Fund is being established to pay for these health facilities.

Construction is expected to take around 12 months following completion of the business case and acquisition of land.

Investing in health and infrastructure will help create jobs, increase the capacity of the health system, and strengthen the economy.
