Residents are invited to join Minister for Health, the Hon Lawrence Springborg MP at the upcoming Kawana Community Health Forum, hosted by Kawana MP Jarrod Bleijie.

The event is being held to provide residents with an update on the positive changes the Government is making in the health sector.

“In just two years the Government has slashed ambulance ramping, drastically slashed dental waiting lists, delivered new ambulances here in Kawana and reduced hospital overnight length of stay times,” Mr Bleijie said.

Mr Bleijie said Sunshine Coast University Public Hospital was Australia’s first newly-constructed major public hospital in more than 20 years, and its construction would not only deliver world-class free healthcare for residents, but provide a significant economic boost for the region.

The Kawana Community Health Forum is open to the public. It will be held at 9.30am, Wednesday, 28 May at Lake Kawana Community Centre, 114 Sportsmans Parade, Bokarina.

Those who wish to attend are asked to RSVP on (07) 5478 1189 or by email to kawana@parliament.qld.gov.au
