Bunbury Hospital is a public hospital servicing the South West region of Western Australia. It includes an expanded emergency department and WA's first regional Intensive Care Unit, which enables care closer to home for many South West residents who might otherwise need to be transferred to Perth. The Intensive Care Unit also has the capacity to take patients from the Great Southern and adjacent parts of the Wheatbelt.
The Bunbury Critical Care Project was made possible through $14.1 million from the Commonwealth's Taking Pressure Off Public Hospitals program for expansion of the emergency department and establishment of the short-stay unit. The State Government invested $800,000 to develop the intensive care unit.
