South Gippsland Hospital is fortunate to have a vibrant, active Auxiliary which, since its inception 82 years ago, has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars to purchase much-needed equipment for the hospital.

Auxiliary meetings

The Auxiliary meets on the third Monday of each month at 1pm in the Community Health Centre (next to the hospital) and new members are always welcome.
