The Hospital's vision is
Vision
The vision for the ANGAU Memorial Hospital, as a regional
Referral Hospital and National Cancer Care Services and
Orthotics and Prosthetics service centres that:

• Deliver quality sustainable health services in alignment with:
• The National Vision 2050
• The National Health Plan 2011-2020
• The Health Services Planning Report 2015
• Enables an alignment of affordable, accessible and appropriate health services
• Provide collaborative and networked health services locally, provincially, regionally and nationally, which integrates NGO’S,  FBO’s and public health services
• Develops a strategic and built framework that aligns with the health service’s needs, with the appropriate and efficient use of resources now and into the future
• Encompasses facilities and place making that reflect the  aspirations, culture and pride of the people within PNG
• Establishes integrated services delivery with education and training that can be networked across PNG
• Provides an ability to educate the population in general, in health promotion, wellness, immunization and illness prevention
• Aligns resource planning where facility development is  contagious with appropriate and skilled staff allocation, medical technology and supplies

These are few of the services provided at Angau Memorial Hospital in Lae, Morobe province.
The three priority clinical services highlighted by the key
stakeholders that should form part of the initial redevelopment
are:

1. Emergency services
2. Obstetrics and Gynaecology
3. The National Cancer service

With each priority service, there is also the other associated clinical services requirements. For Emergency Services to meet its requirements we must
have:

• The required diagnostic services of Medical Imaging and Pathology
• The procedural services of Operating Theatres and Day  Procedures
• The increased specialist patient care facilities of Critical Care including Intensive Care, High Dependency and Coronary Care

For Obstetrics and Gynaecology to meet its requirements we
must have:

• The required Birthing facilities
• The required Neonatal and Special Care Nursery areas
• The required pre and antenatal services and facilities
• The network of increased capacity for obstetric services across the province and the region

For the National Cancer Care services to meet its national
requirements we would recommend that we have an institute
that has:

• Screening centres across all provinces in PNG that provide early diagnosis
• A national Immunisation Scheme that can reduce the  incidences of particular cancers, e.g. cervical cancers
• The development of Self-Care Accommodation in association  with the National Cancer Care Institute to ensure people from rural district have accommodation while undergoing treatment. Accommodation should allow for the family/guardian/carer to stay and take care of the patients
• The Pathology and Pharmacy services required to deliver the cancer treatment
• The integrated training and further education programs and resources needed to support the cancer care services
• The Research and Clinical Trials areas for selected cancer care treatments 

For each of the priority services we also need the clinical, clinical support services and hotel services to deliver the  required services outcomes. The ability to deliver improved health services revolves around  providing the right services and thus functional areas/spaces  with the right functional adjacency.
The development of clinical clusters or precincts is key to the  delivery of modern health services, particularly as the services  become tertiary and referral services. The model of care and  operational policies recommend improved functional clustering, with the clusters/precinct divided as follows:

1. Acute Care services:
2. Acute Care
3. Sub-Acute care

• Ambulatory Care services: Polyclinic /Outpatients/Ambulatory Care services
• Day Therapy and treatment services
• Integrated NGO and FBO Services
• National Cancer Care Institute services and the Self-Care facilities
• Support services
• Hotel Services including Food Services, Stores, Domestic Services
• Pathology and Pharmacy
• Mortuary
• Accommodation services:
• Staff Accommodation
• Student or trainee accommodation
• Visiting special accommodation
• Educational services:
• Unitech School of Nursing
• Educational and training facilities

Status of Health Facilities
Generally, all health facilities in the Province have the worst infrastructure conditions meaning, they are all run down and have deteriorated over the years. There was no maintenance done by  the elected Members of parliaments (MPs) and Local Level Councils (LLGs) even though this services  are serving the very members of the communities and their eligible voters.
The current functioning health facilities does not meet the NHSS 2011 standards requirements of  each level of health facility. The District hospitals are level 4 health facilities however, in SHP they  operate as a level 3 and 2 health facilities and the level 3 and level 2 health facilities does not even  meet their required standards in terms of infrastructure and medical equipment’s and staffing requirements.
There is a greater need for immediate rehabilitations and redevelopment. This is for the safety of the health workers and our disadvantaged communities accessing the health facilities.
