Since its establishment on the current site on 9 July 1914, Bundaberg Hospital has grown into the major medical centre of the Wide Bay Hospital and Health Service providing high quality care within an environment of continuous improvement.

In recent years Bundaberg Hospital has undergone a major redevelopment totalling in excess of $50 million. The redevelopment has delivered new beds, improved services in the rehabilitation unit, as well as a new emergency department, maternity unit and special care nursery.

In the coming years, Bundaberg Hospital expects to benefit from the establishment of a new Oral Health facility, Cancer Care Centre and UQ Teaching and Learning Centre.

Services available currently at the Bundaberg Hospital include intensive care, coronary care, obstetrics, gynaecology, paediatrics, orthopaedic surgery, general surgery, vascular surgery, 24-hour emergency medicine, pharmacy, medical imaging, pathology and comprehensive mental health services. Allied Health services include physiotherapy, occupational therapy, dietetics, speech therapy, psychology and social work.
