Orange Health Service is a public hospital located on the Bloomfield Health Campus, approximately 4 km (2.5 mi) south of the city Orange, New South Wales in Australia and is operated by Western NSW Local Health District.
Orange Health Service was opened in 2011, co-located with the redeveloped Bloomfield psychiatric hospital and replacing Orange Base Hospital as a referral hospital for the Central West region. The facility provides a range of general, surgical and specialist services, in particular forensic psychiatry and cancer treatment. It is a teaching hospital affiliated with the University of Sydney but is also used for teaching students from other universities including the Charles Sturt University and University of Wollongong.
In addition to a 24-hour Emergency Department, Orange Health Service provides a 12-bed critical care unit for adult patients, with dedicated high dependency and coronary care beds, and is able to treat patients with a range of serious and life-threatening conditions including burns and trauma. The hospital is not equipped to perform neurosurgery or heart surgery and patients are transferred to other facilities for these procedures. A rooftop helipad facilitates aeromedical transfers and patient retrieval.
The hospital is equipped with five operating theatres and two purpose built radiotherapy bunkers. Specialist services provided include gastroenterology, kidney dialysis, orthopedics as well as maternity and rehabilitation wards. Diagnostic services such as pathology and medical imaging, including interventional radiology are also available.
