Urgent Care Centre

Urgent Care Centre – 5352 9420




Our Urgent Care Centre provides a quality service through regularly monitoring and reviewing its performance against key performance indicators, and quality improvement activities.

As part of these quality activities EGHS has purchased 2 new defibrillators, 2 new thermometers, an ECG machine, and a new ventilator which has greatly enhanced our emergency service provision to critically ill patients. Staff working in the department continue to participate in on-going professional development and keep their skills up-to-date in the use of new technology.

Our helicopter landing pad facilitates patients being transferred to larger hospitals in the event they require more specialised emergency surgery, specialist care, or intensive care treatment.

The EGHS Urgent Care Centre continues to work closely with Rural Ambulance Victoria, Visiting Medical Officers, Grampians Psychiatric Services and other community health service providers to provide a quality service for our community.

East Grampians Health Service provides facilities and nursing services at no charge to patients who require emergency treatment.

If emergency treatment is not required, patients may be directed to attend a general practice clinic during working hours.

East Grampians Health Service acknowledges the Wotjobaluk, Jaadwa, Jadawadjali, Wergaia, Jupagalk and Eastern Maar peoples as the Traditional Custodians of these lands. We acknowledge that their holistic approach to health; harmony between body, mind, spirit and environment, has been practiced on these lands for thousands of years. We thank past and present Elders for this knowledge to help improve health and wellbeing for all Australians.
