The Victorian Government is investing more than $800 million to build community hospitals in growth areas including Phillip Island.
Phillip Island Community Hospital will be a small public hospital providing a range of important everyday health services including urgent care, dialysis, chemotherapy and day surgery.
Once complete, the new community hospital will help take pressure off nearby major hospitals, including Wonthaggi Hospital. It will also enable more people to manage their health needs closer to home with links to specialists, community health providers and social support services.
Managed by Bass Coast Health, the Phillip Island Community Hospital will be an expansion of the current Phillip Island Health Hub.
