Canterbury Bankstown $450m Private Hospital Pushes Ahead

Plans to double the number of hospital beds in the fast-growing City of Canterbury Bankstown are a step closer after the council greenlit a proposal for the Campsie Private Hospital.

Neetan Investments put forward the $450-million proposed private hospital on a 3ha site at 11 Harp Street, Campsie. 

The hospital would comprise 200 beds, specialist and integrated health services as well as a medi-hotel and childcare facility. 

The proposal will now proceed to the gateway determination phase. 

It’s a step forward for the council’s vision of a Campsie health precinct and would complement the 217-bed Canterbury Hospital.

But it’s also close to another private hospital pitched for the same suburb. 

Developer HPG won approval for increased height and floor space ratio for its proposed $100-million 11-storey private hospital at 445-459 Canterbury Road, Campsie.

Neetan Investments director Nick Countouris said the proposed private hospital at Harp Street was the culmination of five years of consultation with the council and healthcare professionals. 

“Australia’s ageing population is placing significant additional demand on public health services and there is an important role for private hospitals to lighten that burden,” Countouris said.

“This proposal takes pressure off the public health system, providing a holistic and complementary health service, that will act as a catalyst for a community-focused health hub.

“With the integration of a medi-hotel it also recognises the important role that family support plays in recovery and rehabilitation.”

The integrated health hub would offer specialist and integrated GP services, a rehabilitation centre and provision for respite care, a medical research and innovation hub, a medi-hotel, childcare centre and a publicly accessible park.

The proposal includes 3313sq m of public open space and seven buildings ranging from three to 10 storeys incorporating rooftop solar panels. 

The south-west extension of the Metro line from Sydenham to Bankstown, with stations at Canterbury, Belmore, Campsie, is projected to accelerate population growth in the region. 

The Urban Developer understands HPG is preparing its State Significant Development Application after its planning permit was approved, and the developer is in discussions with operators for its 218-bed private hospital and specialist suites. 

The HPG private hospital would be co-located with the public hospital within the Campsie Health Precinct.
