The master plan was created following consultation with various stakeholders, including healthcare staff, local councils, and government agencies.

Victorian Minister for Health Infrastructure Mary-Anne Thomas said: “We know how important this hospital is to those living in the Albury-Wodonga region.

“That’s why we’re working very closely with the NSW Government to give the community new and upgraded health facilities so they can receive very best of care, now and into the future.

She added: “The border region continues to grow, and this project will not only generate hundreds of job opportunities during the construction phase but will also attract more of the best healthcare professionals to the area to meet the future demand.

“While we’re planning for the future, we’re also making improvements to patient experience right now.

“Stage one of the new A$36m ($22.78m) Albury Hospital Emergency Department is set to be completed early next year, with a new short-stay unit scheduled to be completed in the middle of next year.”
