The community of Batemans Bay will benefit from a new $20 million HealthOne facility as part of the NSW Government\u2019s record investment of $500 million to ensure that more health services and infrastructure are delivered to rural and regional NSW.
\nMinister for Health, Brad Hazzard, said Batemans Bay HealthOne has been undergoing planning for the past six months, and will be a one-stop, unique model of integrated care for the community.
\n\u201cThe NSW Liberals and Nationals Government has consistently worked to deliver health upgrades to rural communities, so that people can access high quality health services in contemporary, purpose built facilities close to home,\u201d Mr Hazzard said.
\nThe model brings together Commonwealth-funded general practice and state-funded primary and community healthcare services, including dental, pharmacy and allied health professionals, to create a healthcare hub in one convenient location.
\n\u201cWhile Commonwealth and State Governments have different areas of responsibility in delivering health services, the community just wants an effective, seamless system that works for them,\u201d Mr Hazzard said.
\n\u201cHealthOnes are particularly beneficial for people who have complex health needs, and are a proven successful model that bridges the gap between private providers and Commonwealth and State delivered health services.\u201d
\nThe new $20 million HealthOne at Batemans Bay complements the NSW Government\u2019s $260 million investment in a new Eurobodalla Regional Hospital which will be built at Moruya.
\nSince coming into Government, the Liberals and Nationals have delivered more than 110 health capital projects across rural and regional NSW with more than 70 additional projects currently underway.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
