South Gippsland Hospital

About

South Gippsland Hospital (SGH) is a public small rural health service, which combines an acute hospital with a community health centre and respite centre. Together with the doctors of Foster Medical Centre, SGH serves the community of Foster, Corner Inlet, and surrounding areas including Wilsons Promontory.

SGH officially opened in 1952 and the Community Health Centre opened in 1983. The first hospital in Foster was established by Sr Margaret McClure as a private hospital on the corner of Nelson and Court street. A second private hospital was established on the corner of Main and Nelsons streets by Sr Emily Hoe in 1907, until it became a public community hospital in 1937.

Construction of a new operating theatre and refurbished maternity suite was completed in June 2020.
