St Stephen's Hospital

St Stephen's Hospital Personal Care...Professional Approach St Stephen's is the only not-for-profit private acute hospital facility in the Fraser Coast area.

As part of UnitingCare Health, St Stephen’s Hospital is a non-for-profit private hospital owned by the Uniting Church and has been serving the Fraser Coast community since 1946. As a registered charity and not-for-profit facility, we are committed to re-investing surplus funds for the development of the hospital, our services and employees. This benefits the community by creating a hospital utilising leading edge technology staffed by leaders in their field. Our Motto, “Personal Care, Professional Approach”, employs compassion, care, honesty and integrity throughout every aspect of our care. UnitingCare Health also includes The Wesley Hospital and St Andrew’s War Memorial Hospital in Brisbane, as well as The Sunshine Coast Private Hospital in Buderim, and is therefore a significant provider of healthcare services in Queensland. Collectively over 3,000 people are currently employed by UnitingCare Health, with approximately 100,000 patients treated annually. The hospital is fully accredited by the Australian Council on Healthcare Standards and is committed to providing excellence in heathcare through continuous improvement, innovative leadership and efficient and effective management of resources.

✨🎶 We have been blessed by some very special visitors recently who shared the joy of the season through song and music. A heartfelt thank you to Voices of the Bay, Fraser Coast Anglican College, and Maryborough Ukuleles for bringing Christmas carols to our patients, visitors and staff.

These beautiful performances lifted spirits, spread smiles and reminded us of the power of community during the festive season. We’re so grateful to each group for taking the time to share their talents and kindness with us. 💙🎄

✨ Congratulations to Ingram Ward for taking out top honours at the St Stephen's Hospital Christmas decoration competition.

The team created a wonderfully warm and imaginative display that truly captured the theme of an Australian Bush Christmas. A huge thank you to everyone who joined in the fun — your efforts helped make the hospital feel extra festive this season. 🎄💚

Enjoy a peek at Ingram Ward’s magnificent winning decorations below!

This week during our Christmas Celebration Service, our team and community came together to create this beautiful Christmas wreath. 🌟🎄

It now forms part of the festive display outside the chapel, bringing colour, joy and a touch of Christmas spirit for all to enjoy as they pass by.

Wishing our St Stephen’s community a warm and hope-filled Christmas season. ✨

🎄 Sharing the Christmas spirit with our community 🎄

Our St Stephen’s team has been busy collecting gifts for the Fraser Coast Murri Christmas event — a special celebration supported through partnerships with local First Nations and non-Indigenous organisations.

The Fraser Coast Murri Christmas, led by Kahwun Wooga together with other community groups, is on 13 December at Brothers Sports Leagues Club Fields, Maryborough. It will feature free rides and a barbecue, arts and crafts, cultural dance, music and ceremony, community stalls and, of course, gifts for local children.

We are proud to support this meaningful community event through our Annual Christmas Gift Appeal, helping to share joy and connection with families across the Fraser Coast.

A big thank you to our generous staff for donating so many wonderful presents. ❤️🎁

🌟 International Volunteer Day 🌟

Today, we celebrate the extraordinary volunteers who bring warmth, compassion and humanity to our four UnitingCare hospitals.

Every day, they offer comfort in our wards, reassurance to families, and kindness in moments when it’s needed most. Their generosity of spirit is felt in every conversation, every es**rt down a corridor, every gentle smile that helps someone feel seen and supported.

More than 345 volunteers generously give their time, compassion and energy to support patients, families and staff across our hospital network. And each creates a ripple effect of positive change - for themselves, and the people we serve.

This year’s UnitingCare Volunteer Impact Report shares four of these moving stories - Anthony from The Wesley Hospital, Carole from St Andrew's War Memorial Hospital, Dale from Buderim Private Hospital, and Pam from St Stephen's Hospital.

💛 To every volunteer who walks beside our patients, families and staff – thank you for changing lives, yours included.

As the sun sets each evening, our hospital is aglow with a simple but powerful message: HOPE · PEACE · JOY · LOVE. These four words light up the night to reflect the spirit of the season, inspired by the four weeks of Advent leading up to Christmas Day and the birth of Jesus in the Christian tradition.

We’re grateful to the members of the local Hervey Bay Men’s Shed who lovingly handcrafted this display for our community. 🙏

Whether you’re visiting us or simply passing by, we hope these lights bring a moment of calm and connection — a reminder of what truly matters. 💙

From our hearts to yours, may this season bring you hope, peace, joy and love.

As the year draws to a close, we'd like to share our gratitude for the amazing teams across our four UnitingCare hospitals and the wider UnitingCare family, who never fail to pull together when times get tough. 🙏

Like earlier this year, when devastating floods impacted North Queensland and Cyclone Alfred swept through the region. Our teams responded with remarkable agility, solidarity and unwavering commitment, rising to meet the challenge with courage and determination. ❤️

Watch the 2025 Full Circle Awards video, where these amazing teams received an honourable mention.
