The $135 million Casey Hospital expansion project aimed to increase the range and capacity of services Casey Hospital provides to one of Victoria’s fastest-growing regions.
This major expansion included six new operating theatres and two upgraded theatres. It also provided 128 new multi-day beds, 12 intensive care unit beds and 12 day surgery beds.
This means Casey Hospital will be able to treat more than 25,800 extra patients a year, and perform an extra 8,000 procedures and support an extra 1,300 births each year.
The expansion will allow Casey Hospital to meet the soaring demand for healthcare in Melbourne’s outer south east.
