Port Hedland AREA PLANNING STUDY Foreword Port Hedland is one of the Pilbara’s most historic and colourful towns. The townsite as we know it was established by European settlers in 1896 as a service centre for the pastoral, goldmining and pearling industries, although the area has been home to Aboriginal people for many thousands of years. In the 1960s Port Hedland experienced a major growth period, as a direct result of the emerging iron ore industry.

  • FOI 241 1011 Document 1
    Extract from Hansard [ASSEMBLY- Friday, 10 June 2005] p451d-489a Chairman; Dr Kim Harhes; Mr Norm Marlborough; Mr Jim McGinty; Dr Steve Thomas; Dr Graham Jacobs; Mr David Templeman; Mr Tom Stephens; Dr Janet Woollard; Mr Peter Watson; Mr Colin.Bamett; Mr John Day; Mr Paul Andrews issue for the hospital. On the physical side - the philosophy must be underpinned by the money - we are refurbishing some 3 000 square kilometres of the old dental hospital to provide outpatient services. That will have a domino effect. When that facility is in place in December, we will decant the third floor of the north block. That will enable us to spend $6 million establishing a trauma and bums unit for acute trauma. The establishment of a major trauma centre is important for the state. Literature reveals that more people live if they are cared for in a centre that has built-up experience in trauma. There will be a domino effect through the hospital with outpatients and trauma. Subsequently, we will need to spend funds in the emergency department, where the trauma is initially received. The signposts we are investing in Royal Perth Hospital are very important to the staff and to the public. I would not underestimate their importance in retaining staff over the next five years. The staff are involved in two aspects. The first is maintaining the hospital that.they are in now and the second is planning for a new hospital in collaboration with staff at Fremantle Hospital. It is a busy time for Royal Perth Hospital staff, but it is important to do both jobs well.
