Rockingham Hospital

Overview

Rockingham Hospital is a major metropolitan healthcare facility serving the rapidly growing southern corridor of Perth, Western Australia. With approximately 300 beds, the hospital provides a comprehensive range of services including emergency care, intensive care, general medicine, surgery, obstetrics, pediatrics, mental health, and rehabilitation. Operating as part of the South Metropolitan Health Service, the facility offers 24-hour emergency care, elective surgery, maternity services, cancer care, renal dialysis, and specialist outpatient clinics. Located approximately 40 kilometers south of Perth’s CBD, the hospital serves a catchment population of around 300,000 people across the Rockingham, Kwinana, and Peel regions. Rockingham Hospital has undergone significant expansion in recent years to meet the needs of this fast-growing area, developing into a major tertiary facility that reduces the need for residents to travel to central Perth for specialised care. The hospital also serves as a teaching facility with affiliations to several universities, supporting healthcare education and workforce development.
