The tour will be held on May 1 from 12–3pm at the Eurobodalla Regional Hospital, a major construction site that will be integral to the future of healthcare on the South Coast of NSW.
It will feature a new Emergency Department, an intensive care unit, surgical and operating theatres, and a day-stay surgical unit spread across three clinical levels.
Other services will include the region’s first paediatric department and a contemporary maternity unit, supporting high-quality, patient-centred care.
ACA CEO Jon Davies says women with life experience already have the skills to succeed in construction.
“Switching to construction doesn’t mean starting from scratch, most women who make the transition earn more and find more fulfilling work from day one,” Davies says
“By offering women the chance to visit active construction sites like the Eurobodalla Regional Hospital, they can witness firsthand the exciting opportunities the industry offers. We just need them to take the first step.”
