The Kimba Campus is part of the Eyre, Flinders and Far North Health Services. Kimba is a 20 bed health unit serving Kimba and the surrounding rural community. There are 12 beds for patients receiving active medical treatment and eight aged care beds. We also have an 11 bed hostel for clients requiring a low level of care, and eight independent living units.
Due to COVID-19, changes to services, visiting hours and visitor access now apply.
For more information see Eyre and Far North LHN response to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
Accident and emergency
This is a 24-hour service. When you arrive at the emergency department you will be seen by the duty nurse to collect information and assess your illness or injury.
In a medical emergency, it is important that you do not ‘self present’ to hospital. SA Ambulance Service emergency medical dispatch support officers can provide advanced first-aid advice over the phone while an ambulance is on its way to you.
Kimba has a volunteer ambulance service and access to the Royal Flying Doctor Service.
