Maryborough Hospital
 |
Maryborough Hospital provides an extensive range of health services to the local community and works in partnership with Hervey Bay Hospital in addressing the needs of the population. |
 |
The hospital provides health services, including sub-acute inpatient care, acute care, inpatient, mental health as well as community based services, such as mental, allied and oral health. |
 |
A new $1.8 million specialist rehabilitation unit provides rehabilitation care in an appropriate setting. |
 |
A dedicated elective theatre will open four days a week to provide orthopaedic surgery—this will increase Fraser Coast joint surgery throughput by 24-32 completions each month dependent upon demand. |
 |
A $2 million Fraser Coast endoscopy blitz reduced waiting times from 130 weeks to four weeks by November 2013. |
 |
The hospital has 66 designated sub-acute beds. Palliative care patients occupy 18 per cent of the beds on average each year at any one time. |
 |
Hospital in the Home was initially funded from the community dividend. Planning is underway to expand the service in the 2014-15 financial year to allow eligible patients to be treated in the home. |
