(1)–(4) Supporting
regional health workers and ensuring their safety at work remains a priority
for WA Country Health Service and the state government. In December 2022,
Albany Health Campus was reaccredited under the National Safety and Quality
Health Care Standards and achieved all standards. In the event a business case
is submitted about a potential capital works project, such documents would be
considered cabinet-in-confidence.
