I believe the Sunshine Coast needs a new Satellite Hospital.

To date, the Queensland Labor Government has built seven new Satellite Hospitals in South East Queensland.

These Satellite Hospitals have been accessed for over 130,000 free healthcare visits and have been highly successful in reducing pressure on local hospital emergency departments.

Our Satellite Hospitals provide free walk-in, urgent care for illnesses and injuries not anticipated to be life-threatening in nature and outpatient services such as mental health services, kidney dialysis and other allied health services.

That’s why I want to see one delivered here on the Sunshine Coast.

So our community can have access to more free, quality healthcare services and experience the benefits that these Satellite Hospitals bring to our local communities.

If you want to see a Satellite Hospital here on the Sunshine Coast, please sign my petition and share your thoughts.
