We're Here to Listen

No question is too small. Whether you're looking for information, don't know where to start, need practical support, or simply need someone to point you in the right direction, we're here to help where we can.

Queensland Hospital Watch is an Australian not-for-profit organisation supporting patients, families, carers and healthcare workers across Queensland.

If you're in hospital, supporting someone who is, trying to understand your rights or options, struggling to navigate the healthcare system, or simply don't know who to contact, reach out and tell us what's happening.

Depending on your situation, we may be able to help you find the right pathway, understand available options, locate relevant services or resources, contact organisations with your consent, or connect you with practical, non-clinical support where available.

We can't promise that we'll be able to solve every problem, but we will listen, and if there is a pathway or support we can help you find, we'll do our best to help.

You don't have to know who to call. Start with us.
