Mona Vale Hospital Update

Building Upgrades

Renovations to the facade of Mona Vale Hospital are now underway after more than $700,000 was allocated by the NSW Government to undertake the works. This funding will enable urgent repairs to the hospital's main building to be completed, windows to be replaced and cleaned, and the temporary safety fence surrounding the hospital to be removed.

Maternity Services

From July 1 2009 maternity services were temporarily re-located to Manly Hospital whilst asbestos removal renovations were carried out on the maternity ward. Following an allocation of $1.7M by the NSW Liberal Government in the 2011/12 State Budget, work is now underway to comprehensively refurbish Mona Vale Hospital's maternity ward, with birthing expected to recommence by Easter next year.

Medical Air System

Funding has been allocated to upgrade the hospital's ageing medical air system, which disperses oxygen to bedsides throughout the building. This is an important improvement to the hospital's essential medical equipment and an investment in the hospital's future.

Dental Services

Mona Vale Hospital's Dental Clinic has received a welcome revival after two new full-time dentists were appointed to help cater for increasing demand. This news comes after a period of prolonged uncertainly for the clinic and will help ensure eligible patients aren't redirected to other Sydney hospitals for treatment.
