Royal Perth Hospital reveals new co-name during NAIDOC Week

Royal Perth Hospital reveals new co-name during NAIDOC Week
08/07/2025
What a terrific way for EMHS to mark NAIDOC week.
On Tuesday, EMHS unveiled its new Noongar name for Royal Perth Hospital as Walbirring Karlup.
After an extensive consultation period with local Aboriginal elders, Walbirring Karlup – meaning Healing Place or Place That Brings Good Health – was agreed upon as the approved co-name for RPH.
Health Minister Meredith Hammat MLA and EMHS Acting Chief Executive Sandra Miller attended the co-naming ceremony.
In addition to the co-naming programme, EMHS has embarked on a transformative project to enrich the environment of RPH through the creation of a stunning mural along Lord Street, near the Outpatients building and the Emergency Department.
Acclaimed Aboriginal artist Yondee Shane Hansen was chosen as the lead artist.
If you haven’t yet seen this amazing mural, do yourself a favour and go and check it out!
