General Manager's Welcome

Welcome to Bankstown-Lidcombe Hospital. We are committed to safety, patient-centred care, communication, teamwork and accountability. These values underpin the goals and development of our health services.

The Hospital is one of the major hospitals within South Western Sydney Local Health District, providing a range of services to the residents of the Bankstown region. As a principal referral tertiary hospital with almost 500 beds, we are committed to providing world-class care to all our patients.

Bankstown-Lidcombe Hospital has achieved and maintained full accreditation status in the Australian Council on Healthcare Standards, Evaluation and Quality Improvement Program (EQuIP). We also have teaching and research links to the University of New South Wales, University of Sydney and Western Sydney University, offering supervised undergraduate placements and encouraging recruitment of motivated new graduates.

The Hospital offers great opportunities for professional development and advancement. We foster improvement and innovation, and attract staff who share our values and believe that they can help us achieve our goals.
If we can help you prepare for your admission to Hospital or with any other query, please contact us on (02) 9722 8000.

As a clean hands hospital, Bankstown-Lidcombe Hospital is committed to preventing hospital infections. To assist us, we ask that all visitors and staff use hand hygiene gels before entering and leaving the hospital wards and after patient contact.

The exciting $25 million expansion and refurbishment of Bankstown-Lidcombe Emergency Department is now complete, providing enhanced facilities and increased capacity. The project included the creation of additional treatment spaces and short stay unit capacity, and will facilitate an improved emergency care experience for staff, patients and visitors. The redevelopment has been extremely well received by both patients and staff who have welcomed the bright, contemporary feel of the new building and refurbished spaces.

I look forward to welcoming you to our Hospital in the future. If we can help you prepare for your admission to Hospital or with any other query, please feel free to contact us on (02) 9722 8000.
