Community and Staff Open Day
Join a tour of the St George Hospital Acute Services Building at the Open Day.
Community and Staff will be able to tour the Acute Services Building and see the new state-of-the-art facilities and equipment.
The Acute Services Building will improve St George Hospital’s ability to meet the needs of the community. Some of the key additions include eight new additional operating suites, a new integrated Intensive Care Unit (ICU) with 52 beds, and an additional 128 in-patient beds.
Our community has the opportunity to visit the new facilities before they become operational. Registrations for tours are now open. Book a tour through www.eventbrite.com - search for “St George Hospital Acute Services Building Open Day”.

“Today - after eight months of construction and over 269,000 worker hours - the centrepiece of the redevelopment, the Acute Services Building, has reached its full height of nine storeys, which includes a new helipad,” Mrs Skinner said.
Building for our community.
The redevelopment will include a new seven-storey Acute Services Building above the new Emergency Department.

History Wall – a new feature
A much-travelled corridor in the St George Hospital now has a new feature – a history wall of historical images of the Hospital.
The images have a strong architectural theme, honouring the physical facilities that have constituted the Hospital over time, including contemporary photographs of the new Acute Services Building – the tallest building in Kogarah.
Now open
The new Kensington Street access is a welcome addition to St George Hospital.
It includes a new 55 space street level car park, new hospital entrance and a new drop-off zone.
This will improve access to and from the Kogarah town centre, and provide better access for patients and visitors to the hospital.
