Description: From its earliest days beside the Leschenault Estuary to its emergence as the South West's leading medical centre, Bunbury Regional Hospital traces more than a century of care, crisis and community. This richly detailed history explores the wartime pressures, polio epidemics and post-war expansions that shaped its wards, alongside the evolving services, specialties and infrastructure that define it today. Above all, it is a tribute to the doctors, nurses, staff and patients whose stories have made the hospital a living institution at the heart of Western Australia's South West.
