EMHS 2023-24 annual report out now.

An inspiring past, an exciting future. 

This year we marked important new milestones in our long and distinguished history of medical excellence.

The Royal Perth Hospital (RPH) Emergency Department (ED) as we know it today and Kalamunda Hospital (KH) both celebrated 50th anniversaries, and valued staff members were recognised for dedicated half centuries of service.

The anniversaries were a chance to reflect on the many years of care the various arms of East Metropolitan Health Service (EMHS) and our people have provided generations of Western Australians.
Incredibly RPH has been at the heart of medical care in WA, in various forms, since the Swan River Colony in the mid-1800s - and its origins extend even further back to 1829.

Each new milestone – like those reached this year – is a step further into an exciting future where we will continue to lead and break new ground in health care for generations to come.

As we look to the next financial year, we will draw inspiration from the rich tapestry of our past and the healthcare workers and decision makers whose commitment leaves a lasting legacy at EMHS.

Our health services are built on the strong foundations of this past.
