Director Mission Integration

St John of God Midland Private Hospital is a brand new standalone private hospital in Midland, the first of its kind for Perth’s eastern suburbs and the wider Wheatbelt region and reinforces St John of God Health Care’s commitment to supporting the health and wellbeing of local communities by meeting rising demand and delivering high-quality, accessible care - now and into the future.  Located within the historic Midland Workshops precinct, St John of God Midland Private Hospital will include 123 inpatient beds, a critical care unit, eight operating theatres, day surgery, and the region’s first interventional cardiology services.
