Heyfield Hospital was built in 1934 to service the needs of Heyfield and surrounding communities. The private hospital provides a mix of private beds, public beds (funded by Central Gippsland Health) and three Transitional Care Beds (through the Transitional Care Program) that are subcontracted from Latrobe Regional Hospital. Heyfield Hospital provides medical services and a 24 hour, 7 day a week oncall urgent care service staffed by local general practitioners, who have a co-located, private medical practice on the Heyfield Hospital site.
