Emergencies

Fremantle Hospital does not have an emergency department

If you have a life-threatening medical condition

Call 000 and request an ambulance.

If you have an urgent medical condition

Our Fiona Stanley Hospital emergency department operates 24 hours a day, every day of the year.

 

Not all urgencies are emergencies

A large network of GP practices within the Perth metropolitan area provide GP urgent care services to patients so they receive the most appropriate care without the need to attend an emergency department.

Minor injuries and illness that can be treated at a GP urgent care clinic include:

  • musculoskeletal and orthopaedic injuries
  • gastrointestinal illnesses
  • illnesses of the eye, ear, nose and throat
  • stings, bites, rashes and wound infections
  • abrasions and minor lacerations.
