Werribee Mercy Hospital has undergone an $87 million redevelopment to expand critical care services to meet soaring demand in Melbourne’s west – one of the nation’s fastest growing communities.
This project means that more patients will now have access to high-quality health care, closer to home.
Address
300-310 Princes Hwy Werribee, Victoria, 3030 Australia
The expansion has built four more levels on top of the existing Catherine McAuley Centre, expanding acute services by providing:
56 additional inpatient beds
8 new critical care beds
6 new operating theatres
a new central sterilisation supply department and staff support areas.
The expansion has also provided a new back of house kitchen and loading dock, and a 370-space multi-level car park.
The hospital expansion addresses the rapidly growing demand from the Wyndham community, with the local population predicted to increase by another 193,000 people by 2031.
