The facility will include an expanded emergency department, operating theatres, intensive care, surgical and medical services, maternity and paediatric services, mental health, outpatients, aged health, and a Research and Education Centre. Located in Bankstown CBD with strong connections to bus, train and the future Sydney Metro, the new hospital aims to transform healthcare for the fast-growing south-west Sydney community.
