The $20M healthcare facility, the Beerwah Health Hub had its official grand opening on August 27, bringing much needed primary healthcare services to the growing region.
The Beerwah Health Hub significantly improves community access to healthcare with medical practice MyLocalDoc relocated to an expanded space in the Hub, doubling their number of GPs to eight.
Purpose built to meet the evolving needs of the community, the two-storey 2,165sqm Beerwah Health Hub facilitates collaborative, patient-centred care and features primary and allied healthcare providers including The Wellness Practice holistic health centre.
In addition to healthcare services, the Beerwah Health Hub houses the Happy Hearts Childcare Centre and a veteran hub at the VWF (Veteran Wellbeing Foundation) Command Post Cafe, reinforcing its role as a central resource for the community.
Cornerstone Group Director, Simon Heazlewood, said the Beerwah Health Hub will help the region keep up with the growing demand for services with up to 140,000 people expected to populate the Sunshine Coast by 2040.
“We believe that everyone deserves access to quality healthcare and the Beerwah Health Hub is a critical addition to the growing region and will play a key role in supporting the increasing demand for healthcare services,” he said.
“We’re thrilled to see MyLocalDoc expand its services within the Beerwah Health Hub, offering integrated care alongside like-minded practitioners. “With a new state-of-the-art general practice clinic hosting eight generous consult rooms, a three-bed treatment room, procedure room and a dedicated care plan room, MyLocalDoc Beerwah is positioned to meet the needs of the underserviced Beerwah district and surrounding areas.”
The Beerwah Health Hub also addresses the region’s need for childcare with the Happy Hearts Childcare Centre accommodating 104 places and featuring an expertly designed outdoor playscape on the top floor.
Further enhancing the community-focused nature of the Beerwah Health Hub is the VWF Command Post Café, operated by Young Veterans president Peter Kennedy. This not-for-profit café serves as a vital meeting point for veterans, providing a space where they can connect and
receive essential support through an onsite wellbeing officer.
The Hub has more than 70 carparks across two levels.
