The initiative, stemming from a 2017 WA Labor election commitment, has seen the launch of the mental health unit, expanded emergency department, and staff car park.

WA Premier Roger Cook said: “Joondalup Health Campus is a major medical hub and the significant upgrades we are undertaking will only cement its value to the local community in our northern suburbs.”

WA Health Minister Amber-Jade Sanderson said: “The extensive expansion underway at Joondalup Health Campus is moving at speed to enable the hospital to continue to deliver high-quality care to more public patients.

“The community is experiencing the benefits of new facilities already opened as part of the project including the new mental health unit, new emergency department beds, and more parking.”
