CEDUNA HOSPITAL
In 1919, after reports from missionaries about medical difficulties in outback settlements in Australia, the Anglican Church in Sydney formed a Bush Church Aid Society (BCA). Sister Doris Percival from Sydney was sent in 1925 to open a small cottage hospital in a galvanised iron house a mile and a half from Ceduna. This house is still standing today at the Ceduna Airport Caravan Park. In 1931 a second BCA hospital was opened in East Tce to replace this one. Work began in 1936 to build a new hospital at the site of the current one. This hospital opened on 1 Feb 1937 and was staffed by the BCA until 1968 when the District Council of Murat Bay took over. As the township grew, a Hospital Board of Management was formed by way of public elections. Over the years since, the Hospital has had many renovations, additions and improvements.
