About us:
Welcome to Baralaba Multipurpose Health Service, where small-town care makes a big impact! Our spacious facility provides patient-centred care in a warm rural setting, with most inpatient rooms offering private ensuites and unique country views.
We support our local community with acute inpatient care, residential care, respite and palliative care, plus a 24-hour emergency service supported by Telehealth and emergency retrieval services.
Our Telehealth connections also bring specialist care closer to home, helping patients access appointments without the long trip whenever possible. And when travel is needed, Queensland Ambulance Service Patient Transit Service helps locals get to specialist appointments in Rockhampton.
