Save Wee Waa Hospital

15/03/2026

This Rural Health Action Plan, created by Dr Joe McGirr MP makes sense. It's exactly what we need here in Wee Waa, and in every rural and regional area. It's the commonsense we desperately need to fix the issues we have with our healthcare system in the bush. Please have a read and support his petition which can be found on the website: https://joemcgirr.com.au/rhap

Do you have a vacant farmhouse within 10km of town or a house in Wee Waa that could be available for nurses relocating to work at our hospital?

Access to suitable housing is one practical way we can help attract nursing staff and support the return of 24/7 hospital services.

If you may be able to assist, please send us a message with relevant details (please do not comment below with exact addresses of vacant properties).

WE DON’T WANT A COMPUTER SCREEN - we want a REAL doctor in an emergency!!! Do better Hunter New England Local Health District. Now you’re putting even more people at risk - 10,000+ of us, by allowing Moree Hospital to currently have no doctor. Advocate to increase that ridiculous rural doctor pay schedule, it is outdated and drastically letting down regional NSW!

"We only need one ambulance to leave town and take someone to Moree or Tamworth, and the community of over 2,000 people are left stranded."

Wee Waa residents are frustrated by a lack of detail after being told their hospital would return to 24/7 opening hours.
