Gosford Hospital
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gosford Hospital is a 484-bed hospital[1] in Gosford, New South Wales, Australia. It provides a range of medical, surgical and maternity services to the Central Coast region of New South Wales.
It is a state-run public hospital, part of the Northern Sydney-Central Coast Area Health Service, which is a division of New South Wales Department of Health.
Gosford Hospital is also a teaching hospital of the University of Newcastle. Many medical, nursing and other allied health students are placed there for practical terms. Despite being a teaching hospital, it is not a tertiary referral centre. Patients needing advanced care, such as cardio-thoracic or neurosurgery are transferred to facilities such as Royal North Shore Hospital, John Hunter Hospital or Westmead Children's Hospital.
Recently there have been major upgrades to the hospital, including new wards and a multi-storey carpark.
The hospital's library has a large collection of medical-related texts and many computers with access to the Internet.
There is also a staff quarters building, which is yet to be upgraded with the rest of the campus.
