The Women's Health Surgical Unit provides care for women requiring elective and non-elective, major and minor gynaecology and gynae-oncology, uro-gynaecology and breast surgery treatment.

We support the mission statement of Mater.

We believe our role is to provide women with optimal and holistic care during their inpatient stay.

We advocate prevention and health promotion to assist women in maintaining good health. We believe it is the woman's right to make informed choice and actively participate in decision-making related to her health.

We believe we are responsible for maintaining high standard in health care through continuing education, research and involvement in socio-political processes.

We believe that the nurse is responsible for promoting collaborative and collegial professionals to recognise and respect their particular contribution to the effectiveness of the health care team.
