The Queensland Government has appointed Multiplex to deliver the new 600-bed Coomera Hospital, marking a major milestone in providing more hospital capacity for the rapidly growing northern Gold Coast.

It follows major foundation works which are already underway, including concrete pours to support the expanded footprint, adding to retaining and remodelling of existing structures, as well as bulk earth works.  
 
The Queensland Government is delivering health services when Queenslanders need them, with several stages of the new Coomera Hospital to be delivered from 2028, starting with the car park through to all 600 beds by 2032.

An independent review of the project found the new hospital had been under-scoped and underfunded with the unbudgeted 400-bed plan failing to meet the future needs of one of the State’s fastest-growing communities.

Under the Queensland Government’s Hospital Rescue Plan, the project was rescoped, with 200 additional hospital beds added, delivering the capacity needed for the Northern Gold Coast with a new 600-bed hospital. 
 
Multiplex will deliver the major infrastructure project, with civil works, construction of retaining walls, permanent stormwater management tanks and works on the multi-storey car park expected to start from next month.
 
Major foundation works are already underway, including concrete pours to support the expanded footprint, alongside retaining works, remodelling of existing structures and bulk earth works.
 
The new Coomera Hospital is part of the Queensland Government’s fully-funded Hospital Rescue Plan, delivering more than 2,600 additional beds, three new hospitals and major expansions at 10 hospitals across Queensland.
 
On the Gold Coast, 110 new hospital beds have already been delivered at Gold Coast University Hospital under the Hospital Rescue Plan, with 828 additional frontline health workers added since the Queensland Government was elected. 

More health workers and hospital beds have delivered the lowest quarterly ambulance ramping rates recorded in a decade, with 20.1% at the Gold Coast University Hospital and 11.6% at Robina Hospital.

Premier David Crisafulli said the 600-bed Coomera Hospital would deliver health services when Queenslanders need them for the rapidly growing northern Gold Coast.
 
“The northern Gold Coast is one of the fastest-growing parts of Queensland, and we’re making sure families have access to health services when they need them, as their communities continue to grow,” Premier Crisafulli said.
 
“We’re delivering a bigger, better Coomera Hospital, with 200 more beds because Queenslanders deserve easier access to health services and health infrastructure that keeps pace with population growth.”
 
Minister for Health and Ambulance Services Tim Nicholls said the Queensland Government was building the beds, growing the workforce and improving patient flow.
 
“We made the choice to fix the project, add 200 beds, and properly plan and fund the hospital this community needs, and we’re now getting on with delivering it.” Minister Nicholls said.
 
Member for Coomera Michael Crandon said the community was now seeing real progress on the hospital construction.

“Foundations are underway and major construction activity is ramping up on site, giving families across the Northern Gold Coast confidence their new hospital is moving ahead,” Mr Crandon said. 

Member for Theodore Mark Boothman said the new hospital would strengthen health services across the northern Gold Coast.

“This 600-bed hospital will mean more care closer to home for local families, while adding much-needed capacity across the Gold Coast health system,” Mr Boothman said.
