The centre will be staffed by a multidisciplinary team of medical professionals, including nurses and allied health workers.
The ACT Government is investing in more health and community services in Gungahlin.
This includes building a new health centre for the growing region and taking the next steps on delivering a new ACTAS Ambulance and Fire station and indoor sports facility.
A new health centre in Casey
The 2024–25 ACT Budget will include funding for the design and construction of a new health centre in North Gungahlin.
The North Gungahlin Health Centre will be built on Kingsland Parade in Casey, conveniently close to the shopping centre and other facilities.
The centre will provide more free health services closer to where people need them, with easier access to preventative health services and treatment for chronic disease.
The centre will be staffed by a multidisciplinary team of medical professionals, including nurses and allied health workers.
This will continue to expand as the ACT Government recruits to grow Canberra’s frontline public health workforce.
The new centre will complement the territory’s existing network of nurse-led Walk-in Centres, community health centres and the hospital system.
More community facilities
The ACT Government is currently working through additional community uses for the remaining blocks on the 2.4-hectare site.
This includes an indoor sports facility to provide local residents, sporting groups and organisations with access to better amenities and state-of-the-art facilities.
It also includes a new ACTAS Ambulance and Fire Station, which will enhance response times to emergency incidents as the Gungahlin community grows.
Both these will be captured as part of the Estate Development Plan and the Subdivision Design Application to be completed through 2024–25.
The Government has already committed to a study on traffic and transport improvements surrounding the Casey Group Centre.
This work will also be considered in development processes as the ACT Government works with the community to design a precinct that suits the local community’s needs.
