The Victorian Government is investing $384.2 million to deliver the Warrnambool Base Hospital redevelopment.

A new multi-storey clinical services building will deliver a bigger emergency department, more operating theatres, an extra 22 inpatient beds and dedicated areas for medical imaging and dialysis.

With more families choosing to make Warrnambool home, a dedicated 10-bed paediatric unit will provide specialised care to children and young people.

Construction of a new off-site Regional Logistics Distribution Centre (RLDC) was completed in January 2024. The RLDC was purpose-built to provide commercial linen services and a modern healthcare supply and logistics warehouse. Relocating these services will free up space at the hospital for the new multi-storey building.

The redevelopment will transform services at the hospital, giving Victoria’s south-west community access to world-class healthcare facilities, close to home.
