The hospital was granted $8.9 million as part of a $55 million allocation to complete its second stage of upgrades.

According to the South Western Sydney Local Health District website, the second stage involves the development of a new pharmacy and central services department, and a renal unit for the hospital.

Member for Wollondilly Nathaniel Smith said the funding enables the second stage of upgrades to be completed successfully.

"We would see a wonderful stage two, like we had a wonderful stage one," he said.

"It will cater for the growing needs of the population and compete with hospitals in the Sydney metropolitan area."

The hospital welcomed a new pharmacy double the size of its previous in April this year.
