Patients and Visitors

Wollongong Hospital is the largest of Illawarra Shoalhaven Local Health District’s eight hospitals, treating more than 48,000 patients annually. It is the region’s tertiary referral hospital which means it has the capacity to treat specialist and complex cases.

At The Wollongong Hospital, we recognise that coming into hospital can be an overwhelming experience for many people. Our aim is to provide you with as much information as possible and we encourage your involvement and the involvement of your family/carers throughout your hospital stay.

We are happy to provide any further information that you may require. Please feel free to speak to your Doctor, the Nurse caring for you, the Nurse Unit Manager of the Unit you are in, or the After Hours Nurse Manager (you can ask a staff member to contact them for you).

The Wollongong Hospital team wish you a comfortable and pleasant stay. If you are seeking further information, please contact the hospital directly on 4222 5000.
