Our Story
Logan Hospital is the major health centre for one of the fastest growing regions in the state. We have grown from a 48-bed community hospital in 1990 to a 448-bed hospital today, mirroring the rapid growth in population in the Logan region.
Services we provide
We provide acute medical, surgical, rehabilitation, maternity, cardiology, orthopaedics, renal and other specialty services for children and adults.
As part of our commitment to performing more elective surgery, in early 2014, we opened our eighth surgical theatre. The new theatre has allowed us to perform an average of 12-15 major cases to 40-50 minor operations each week.
In late 2014, Logan Hospital opened our doors to a brand new multi-storey building as part of our $152.3M expansion project. The first stages of this project included a new co-located adult’s and children’s emergency department, an expanded children’s inpatient ward and a new 24-bed rehabilitation unit. A new cardiac catheter laboratory will also be built, allowing up to 800 local residents with heart conditions to be treated closer to home.
Education
As a teaching hospital, we help train future health care professionals and participate in research through strong partnerships with Queensland’s leading tertiary institutions.
In the 2014-2015 financial year, there were:
60,803 patients admitted to the hospital
75,982 presentations to the emergency department
39,835 outpatient appointments
3,319 babies born.
Logan Hospital employs more than 1921 staff, making it the largest employer in Logan City.
