Perth Hospitals 2026, Overview

Perth's public hospital network is operated through WA Health's regional Health Services, with Fiona Stanley Hospital (opened 2014), Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital and Royal Perth Hospital forming the backbone of tertiary care. Perth's geographic isolation from other major Australian cities makes it essential that Western Australia maintains comprehensive specialist services locally, the Royal Flying Doctor Service provides coverage for remote WA, and Perth hospitals receive patients from across the state. In a medical emergency, call Triple Zero (000).
