The Manse Accommodation project will convert an unused but historic 'local interest' building into a facility that can be used to provide appropriate temporary accommodation on the hospital campus for:
  • Patient carer's/family, especially those living outside Maryborough who are disadvantaged by lack of transport and socio-economic factors.
  • Health students thereby enhancing community links with the Universities and assisting to overcome the challenges for future recruitment of health professionals.
The project was envisaged more than six years ago.  Funding contributions came from 15 different sources.

A working party comprising representatives of the Maryborough District Health Service Board and Rotary has reconvened to consider ongoing development and are now working towards the Manse opening during the second quarter of 2008.

Initial site work has commenced.
