About Caloundra Hospital
Caloundra Hospital functions as a key public health facility servicing the southern Sunshine Coast, including the developing suburb of Banya. The site operates a minor injury and illness clinic that manages non-life-threatening conditions such as minor burns, cuts, and simple fractures. This facility reduces the pressure on larger emergency departments by providing streamlined care for less urgent medical issues during daily operating hours.
Patients can access various sub-acute services including geriatric evaluation and management, alongside comprehensive rehabilitation and palliative care. The hospital sits a short distance from the Caloundra Airfield, offering a central location for residents across the 4551 postcode. Specialist outpatient clinics operate on-site, covering diverse fields like oral health and renal dialysis, ensuring the local community receives professional medical attention without travelling to major metropolitan hubs.
