Previously known as Urbenville District
Hospital, the Urbenville & District Multipurpose
Service opened in February 1995.
In addition to the traditional services of hospital,
emergency care and community nursing, the MPS offers
the districts of Urbenville, Woodenbong, and Legume
a wider range of health services.
Emergency
Care
- The MPS provides emergency care
to people with conditions that cannot be treated at
a doctor's surgery.
- X Rays must be arranged by appointment,
and upon the orders of a medical practitioner.
- For non emergencies, where a doctor
is not available, persons are referred to General
Practitioners at Bonalbo or Kyogle.
Hospital & Respite Care
- The MPS provides hospital care
under the treatment of a local medical practitioner.
- Short term respite care is available
for aged people assessed as suitable for Nursing Home
or Hostel placement.
Residential Aged Care

for high care and low care residents (nursing home
and hostel) are provided. Residents do not pay entry

based in Lismore.
