Frankston Hospital redevelopment

 The Victorian Government is delivering a $1.1 billion redevelopment of Frankston Hospital. This is the largest ever health infrastructure investment in Melbourne's south-east.

The redevelopment will transform services at the hospital, delivering a new tower with 12 levels of clinical services and main entrance, 130 more beds, new spaces for mental health and oncology services and 15 new operating theatres.

With more families choosing to make Frankston home, the redevelopment will also deliver expanded women's and children's services. This includes new maternity, obstetrics and paediatric wards, a women's clinic and a special care nursery.

An expansion of the emergency department will deliver a new mental health, alcohol and other drugs hub and a dedicated paediatric zone, providing specialist care for patients, families and carers when they need it most.

Once finished, the redeveloped hospital will have capacity to treat approximately 35,000 more patient episodes each year. This will cut wait times and reduce pressure on other Melbourne hospitals.

Construction is underway, with main works expected to be completed in 2025.
