The hospital has eight inpatient beds and provides a range of sevices including emergency services, general medicine, surgical care, palliative care and outpatients.
There is also a 10-bed aged care facility, the Trudinger Aged Care Complex, providing a homeline setting, under the same roof but separate to the hospital.
Community Health services are based at the nearby Wudinna Community Health Medical Centre, which also houses a GP practice.

Car parking
There is disabled parking onsite.
Disabled access
The building is wheelchair accessible and there are toilets for people with disability. Please ask at Reception.
