Royal Perth Hospital

Story

Royal Perth Hospital is a 450-bed teaching hospital located on the northeastern edge of the CBD of Perth, Western Australia.HistoryThe Hospital traces its history back to the first colonial hospital which was established in a tent on Garden Island, just off the coast of Western Australia, in 1829. In June 1830, the hospital tent was re-erected in Cathedral Avenue, Perth. From 1833 a more substantial colonial hospital operated for a short time from a rented room in a private house. Six years later, in December 1840, this was re-opened in a building formerly used as stables on the corner of St Georges Terrace and Irwin Street. The Hospital commenced operations on its present site on 14 July 1855 and was formally named the Colonial Hospital. In the years since, the Hospital has been known variously as the Perth Public Hospital, the Perth Hospital and finally, from 1946, as Royal Perth Hospital.FutureInitial plans in 2005 were to close down operations at RPH in response to opening of Fiona Stanley Hospital; however, the Western Australian government's South Metropolitan Services have changed plans since. The main campus on Wellington Street will retain its role as a major adult trauma centre and centre for complex surgeries. The Shenton Park campus (a tertiary rehabilitation centre) has closed down and rehabilitation services moved to Fiona Stanley Hospital.FacilitiesRoyal Perth Hospital is the largest hospital in WA, employing over 6000 people and seeing over 70 000 patients each year. Some of the services offered are imaging, trauma and neurosciences, a wide variety of surgical options, critical and emergency care, dermatology, internal medicine, haematology and many others besides.

To Whom It May Concern,nnI would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to the incredible nursing staff who took care of me during my stay at Royal Perth Hospital.nnIn particular, I would like to thank the daytime nurses Leanne, Dybia, and Tincy, Christineas well as the night shift nurses Ash Grad, and Jessie Grad. Each of them showed exceptional professionalism, patience, and kindness. Their calm manner, prompt assistance, and compassionate support made a difficult time much more manageable and emotionally comforting.nnI also want to thank Chris, a 28-year-old Curtin graduate who looked after me in the Emergency Department. His quick action, clear communication, and caring presence left a deep impression on me and truly exemplified what it means to be an outstanding nurse.nnThank you all for your dedication and the genuine care you provide to patients like me. It made a real difference in my recovery.nnWarm regards,nn24 April 2025
I would like to respectfully bring to your attention that we have been waiting in the emergency department since 3:00 PM after arriving by ambulance. It is now1040 PM, and we are still waiting.nI understand that healthcare staff are under immense pressure and doing their best, but I kindly urge you to consider ways to improve the efficiency and responsiveness of the service. Long wait times in emergency situations can be distressing and potentially dangerous.
Tarsh the Gastroenterologist Nurse, has been phenomenal in my Dads care. And the most consistent carer and Nurse. Tarsh should be the level of care and consistency any health professional and provider aspires to be. As a family we are so grateful forever for the exceptional care you have provided. You will do well in everything you have wondered your profession can take you. Thank you for being you, you make a difference. That’s all that matters at the end of the day that you Tarsh went above and beyond by being you. Thank you sincerely you are what WA and any heath board should aspire to be.
My husband got injured at work and needed a few stitches. It was a relatively simple case, yet we had to wait over 12 hours to be seen. The lack of timely medical care is honestly unacceptable. While we understand that emergencies vary in priority, this level of delay for a straightforward injury is really concerning!
I’d rather die than go to Royal Perth againnnThe lady doctor had time to do 100 weird test on me and ask the same questions over and over and she even went to get a cup of water and dip her tapping device inside and she was taking her sweet ass time it was so unnecessary and the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen and they didn’t have time to walk me to my uber and I was limping and crying to my carnAnd they ended up kicking me out and said another patient had to use the bedn3 lady doctors came to me to kick me out I regret ever going to Royal Perth I got nothing out of it except script for my medicinenReally wanted to go home and they were forcing me to stay over nightnThere was terrible screaming, the whole place is like a nightmarenThen one of the nurses came to me with a clipboard and paperwork and she said the words “sign here” and pointed at the blank space so I signed it and then she said you signed it and crap about the policy and they told me to leave because they needed the bed, when they just tried to force me to stay overnight?nThe nurses were also judging me and they were not empathetic at allnThis was been one of the worst experiences in my life
