New visualisations and floor plans have been revealed for the $630 million Fairfield Hospital Redevelopment, giving the community its first look at the modern, expanded hospital.
The new designs include the planned locations of hospital departments within the new multi-storey building.
The clinical services building will be located at the front of the existing Fairfield Hospital building, to enable seamless integration with existing health services. As part of the project, enhancements to the existing Fairfield Hospital will also be delivered, including upgrades to the main entry and drop-off areas, providing convenient access to a new main foyer, reception, and the existing hospital buildings.
The redevelopment will also include a new multi-storey car park and expanded ground level parking zones, which will boost the number of parking spaces on the hospital campus and improve access to health services across the hospital campus.
The new clinical services building will include:
- Expanded Emergency Department
- Intensive Care Unit
- Medical Imaging
- Operating theatres
- Inpatient wards
Some existing departments will also be relocated or refurbished as part of the project.
The final design for the redevelopment will be confirmed as planning for the project progresses.
The first early works planning application is also currently on public exhibition, with work expected to start next year following planning approval. The community is invited to view plans and provide feedback on the works, which will prepare the site for main works construction.
The Fairfield community is encouraged to have their say and provide feedback on the proposed hospital designs and early works to help shape planning for the redevelopment.

The NSW Government has committed $550 million to deliver Fairfield Hospital Redevelopment, with a further $80 million contribution to expand the emergency department from the Federal Government.
This project forms part of the government’s broader investment in Western Sydney health infrastructure, with an additional $1.3 billion in the 2025-26 Budget supporting major facilities including:
- An additional $700 million for the new Bankstown Hospital, increasing the total investment to $2 billion
- Additional State funding of $90 million to provide the full range of maternity and birthing services as part of the new Rouse Hill Hospital, with a further $120 million announced by the Federal Government towards the new maternity and birthing service
- $492 million to develop a Statewide Pathology Hub on the Westmead campus
- $120 million for additional beds for Blacktown and Mount Druitt Hospitals
- $40.1 million to fit out level 13 of the new Paediatric Services Building at Westmead in partnership with the Sydney Children’s Hospitals Foundation
- $22.3 million to establish a new paediatric hospice at The Children’s Hospital at Westmead
Other projects in the Western Sydney region include upgrades at Nepean, Liverpool, Canterbury, Camden and Campbelltown hospitals.
The Fairfield Hospital Redevelopment is being delivered by Health Infrastructure, in partnership with the South Western Sydney Local Health District.
NSW Minister for Health, Ryan Park, said that the $630 million Fairfield Hospital Redevelopment will transform the Fairfield Hospital campus and enhance the health care services provided by hard-working staff.
“We’re building modern health facilities across Western Sydney to support our fastest growing communities now and into the future,” Park said.
“More hospitals, more beds, lower wait times. It’s as simple as that.”
South Western Sydney Local Health District Chief Executive, Sonia Marshall, said that a redeveloped Fairfield Hospital is one step closer.
“The new clinical services building and enhancements to the hospital campus are a reflection of our commitment to providing more healthcare services to a growing population,” Marshall said.
“The latest plans give our community an idea of how Fairfield Hospital will look and function in the near future and I encourage our community to get involved and have their say about their local hospital.”
