As a Monash Health hospital, the Victorian Heart Hospital will be uniquely positioned to provide tailored cardiovascular care for all Victorians, and specialised life-saving procedures for our community.
Located in Clayton and near to Monash Medical Centre, our cardiac teams in the Victorian Heart Hospital will have ready access to world-leading expertise in obstetrics, nephrology, intensive care, and many other specialties. For patients with health issues beyond heart disease, this close proximity and shared networks will allow for the best possible care.
As Australia’s first dedicated cardiac hospital, the Victorian Heart Hospital will include a full range of ambulatory and inpatient cardiac care, including cardiac theatres, cardiac catheterisation laboratories and ambulatory services such as cardiac CT, echocardiography and specialist consultation.
A strong focus on prevention, recovery and rehabilitation will also be at the heart of the Victorian Heart Hospital. We are working hard to prepare for the opening of the Victorian Heart Hospital in 2022, ensuring our teams are ready to deliver improved outcomes and experiences for cardiac patients in our care.
The hospital will be delivered in partnership with the Victorian Government, the Victorian Health Building Authority, and Monash University.
