About Central West Health Service

Longreach, QLD, Australia

Central West Hospital and Health Service (Central West Health) was established as an independent statutory body on 1 July 2012 under the provisions of the Hospital and Health Boards Act 2011 (the Act). As an independent statutory body, Central West Health is overseen by a local health board.

Central West Health is responsible for providing public hospital and health services. Hospital services include accident and emergency, inpatient care, general and elective surgery, medical imaging and maternity services. Other healthcare services include a range of community and primary healthcare services such as immunisation, child and maternal health, chronic disease, allied health and mental health services.

The Queensland central west covers some 396,650 square kilometres of the state and includes the communities of remote central western Queensland from Tambo, in the south-east, to Boulia in the northwest. Central West Health serves a population of approximately 12,400 persons and also services a large number of visitors seeking an outback experience during the winter months.
