Tom Price Hospital Progressing as Key Milestone Reached 

The much-anticipated redevelopment of the Tom Price Health Service has taken a significant step forward, with the installation of project signage marking visible progress in delivering improved healthcare facilities for the region. 

A collaboration between the Shire of Ashburton, the State Government and Rio Tinto, the project will provide a modern emergency department, a new four-bed inpatient ward, upgraded dental and pathology services and contemporary ambulatory care facilities to better meet the needs of the growing Tom Price community. 

Shire President, Audra Smith, welcomed the latest development. 

This project has been a priority for our Shire and community, which we have advocated for many years, and it’s fantastic to see it progressing. The new Tom Price Health Service will provide essential improvements in healthcare access for our residents, and we are proud to be working in partnership with the State Government to bring it to life,” she said. 

As part of the broader commitment to regional healthcare thanks to Rio Tinto’s additional $20 million contribution, signage for the Paraburdoo Health Service redevelopment is set to be installed next week, ensuring that both communities remain well-informed about the exciting projects promised in early July, 2024.  

The Shire of Ashburton continues to advocate for high-quality health services in the region, and this redevelopment is a major milestone in securing accessible, modern healthcare for Tom Price and surrounding regional areas.
