Supporting The Prince Charles Hospital
and Caboolture Hospital
The Common Good connects a generous community with the hospitals that care for them, supporting both The Prince Charles Hospital in Brisbane and Caboolture Hospital.
Together, these major Queensland hospitals treat hundreds of thousands of patients each year, from emergency care and complex heart and lung treatment to everyday procedures, rehabilitation, and specialist services. Many patients and families choose to give back after receiving life-changing or life-saving care, helping ensure others can benefit too.
Through community support, donations, and partnerships, The Common Good funds medical research, essential equipment, and patient-care programs that go beyond government funding. This includes innovations that improve diagnosis and treatment, services that support children and families during hospital stays, and initiatives that enhance comfort, recovery, and long-term health outcomes.
By supporting care at both The Prince Charles Hospital and Caboolture Hospital, The Common Good is helping people across Brisbane, Moreton Bay, and Queensland access high-quality healthcare close to home — today and for generations to come.
The Prince Charles Hospital
Since 1986, The Common Good has been proud to support The Prince Charles Hospital, one of Australia’s leading heart and lung hospitals and home to Queensland’s second busiest emergency department.
Each year, the hospital cares for hundreds of thousands of patients from across Brisbane, Queensland, and beyond, delivering specialist treatment for complex heart and lung conditions alongside vital emergency care.
Caboolture Hospital
Since 2020, The Common Good has invested more than $1.4 million into Caboolture Hospital to enhance frontline services, support innovative research, and improve patient experiences — including programs such as Child Life Therapy, which helps children cope with hospital visits.
By connecting a caring community with its local hospital, The Common Good is helping people in Caboolture live healthier for longer, while strengthening healthcare for future generations.
