History

This charming city marks the spot where the first European settlers set foot in Western Australia, and much of their legacy remains today with around 50 colonial buildings standing proudly as museums, galleries and restaurants. 

The Great Southern Health Region is organised around the Albany Health Campus as the major ‘hub’ for public health services.  A range of regional services are co-ordinated from Albany to support the Integrated District Health Service in Katanning and smaller hospitals, multi-purpose services and nursing posts throughout the region.

This network of services provides a continuum of care for residents and visitors and allows for patients to be transferred to the more specialised, larger hospital in Albany or metropolitan tertiary hospitals, where required.
