20.01.2022 We’ve committed an additional $46.5M for new world-class local services at Ipswich Hospital if re-elected: $24.5M for an alcohol and drug rehabilitation service. $11M for paediatrics and a dedicated mental health area in emergency.... $9.3M to deliver a dedicated obstetric theatre. $1.7M for more renal dialysis and nephrology services. This follows a $40M commitment to build a satellite hospital in Ipswich, along with more than 300 new nurses and 70 additional doctors for our community, and is in addition to our $146M Stage 1 expansion that is already being delivered.

20.01.2022 It costs $7,000 a day to keep our local Ipswich Hospice Care - Queensland open, providing the highest levels of care and compassion for terminally ill people and their families.

A $50 donation covers the cost of a counselling session for a grieving family member.... $100 pays for a home visit by a nurse practitioner. $250 covers the cost of a nurse for one shift. $500 pays for guest catering for a week.
