As Australia’s first fully integrated digital hospital, St Stephen’s gives the Wide Bay community access to one of the country’s most advanced healthcare facilities. Yet in the midst of this state-of-the-art facility, it’s our commitment to person-centred care that truly sets us apart.

St Stephen’s has a long history within the Wide Bay community. From our origins as a local centre caring for local people, we’ve developed into an innovative not-for-profit regional hospital. A hospital that still puts the community we serve at the core of everything we do.

Today we provide holistic care to local, regional and interstate patients and their families.

We’re small enough to provide individualised care from our team of specialists, nurses and allied health staff but large enough to cover a majority of health care needs. This includes:

Surgical

Medical

Oncology

Radiotherapy

Rehabilitation

With spacious rooms and the most caring environment, St Stephen’s provides a comprehensive range of inpatient medical and surgical services. We’re able to serve you by offering access to experienced specialists with minimal waiting.

General, family dental services for all the family including implants, crown and bridge, root canal, preventative, restorative treatments and full smile makeovers. New patients welcome. Emergency appointments available.

Hands-on Physiotherapy. We offer sports physiotherapy, general physiotherapy, remedial massage, pilates and a boutique gym.

CT provides treatments related to sports injuries, post-surgery, as well as neuropathic and chronic pain. The physiokey: a state-of-the-art device that generates a highly variable impulse to send information through the body to the brain, which in turn modifies the impulse and sends the signal back. It stimulates the nervous system to activate its self-healing abilities, providing pain relief.

Fraser Coast Hospice is a 6-bed purpose built inpatient facility providing fee-free quality palliative care for people of the Fraser Coast over the age of 18, who have a terminal illness.

Opened in October 2021, the facility is a licensed private hospital, accredited against the National Safety and Quality Health Service (NSQHS) Standards.

With a budget of $2m for financial year 2023-24 we are relying on the generosity of our community to help us raise the funds we need to provide our fee free service.

At Nourish, we believe that everyone has value and worth and deserves to live their best life.  We offer counselling, as well as the highly effective TRTP trauma therapy, working with our clients towards healing, freedom, and empowerment. We help our clients to thrive and grow in every area of their life – physically, mentally, emotionally, relationally, and spiritually.

TRTP (The Richards Trauma Process) is an elegantly simple, yet dynamically rich process which deals with the lingering effects of distressing life events/experiences (that you may or may not be aware of). TRTP reduces (and regularly resolves) trauma-related symptoms such as anxiety, depression, stress, fears, phobias, PTSD, shame, and grief. It removes the triggers that often set us up for a negative response to various situations and deals with the self-sabotage that robs us of the life we’ve dreamed of. TRTP achieves results quickly, effectively, and safely – generally in three sessions.

TRTP deals with the underlying, unconscious core beliefs which keep a person stuck in self-sabotaging thoughts, emotions, and behavioural patterns. Clients are shifted from fight/flight/freeze and moved to an empowered, self-regulated state. The nervous system is calmed. The memory of the trauma is placed firmly in the past and the emotional charge is removed. The client quickly moves from their state of ‘I’m not safe!’ to ‘It’s over, I’m safe now’. Calm returns on all levels and symptoms cease.

So, whether you are interested in counselling, or TRTP, we would love to help you. Contact Tania or Dean to discuss how we can help you more.

TRTP (The Richards Trauma Process) reduces depression, anxiety and stress in 3 sessions.
