Delivering a new northside hospital for the ACT

The ACT Government is committed to delivering a new hospital on the northside that can meet the growing needs of our community. 

Following the passing of the Health Infrastructure Enabling Act 2023, public hospitals in the ACT will be managed under one operator, Canberra Health Services from 3 July 2023.

The ACT Government’s vision is for a person-centred health system that is accessible, accountable, and sustainable. There are many benefits for public hospitals in the ACT to be managed under one operator such as easier transition and management of patients between sites and greater opportunities to strengthen and build our health workforce.

The ACT Government will now move towards formally transitioning Calvary Public Hospital team members and assets to Canberra Health Services.

During the transition period the ACT Government’s key priority is to support team members and ensure that Canberrans continue to access high quality healthcare.

Team members, suppliers and contractors are encouraged to call (02) 5124 0400 to speak with someone from the dedicated transition team. The team will respect your confidentiality and calls can be made anonymously.

If you have an appointment at Calvary Public Hospital before or after the 3 July you will continue to receive services as planned, unless contacted directly by Calvary or your healthcare provider. If you have questions, please call your healthcare provider.
