The proposal would provide $5 million in 2025-26 to upgrade Dandenong Hospital’s intensive care unit (ICU). The funding would modernise the current 14-bed ICU, with larger patient cubicles, new private rooms, improved equipment storage and new training spaces for staff. It would also include an improved assessment centre with additional ensuite bathrooms and secure medication rooms.

The proposal would be non-ongoing and start from 1 July 2025.
