Peel Health Campus
transitioned to South Metropolitan Health Service (SMHS) in August
2024, marking the beginning of an exciting new era for healthcare
in the Peel-Murray region. The transition has enabled significant
investment in the future of local health services, including plans
for a new purpose-built public hospital on the existing site.
Alongside the 192-bed Peel Health Campus, the Group includes Murray
District Hospital, which provides inpatient medical, palliative
care and allied health services. Together, these facilities support
the delivery of high-quality care closer to home. The planned
redevelopment will expand services, modernise facilities and
improve access to healthcare for the growing Peel-Murray
community.
