Victorian Government visits Monash Health to announce Better At Home initiative

The Victorian Minister for Health, Martin Foley, announced the Better At Home initiative from the Monash Children’s Hospital on Saturday 14 November.

The $120 million funding to bring hospital care to homes is good news for new mums like Robyn, who made the most of telehealth appointments before giving birth to baby Evie last week.

Joining the Minister was the Deputy Chief Health Officer Professor Allen Cheng, plus Monash Health’s Board Chair Dipak Sanghvi, Associate Professor Ryan Hodges, Andrea Rindt, Dr Kirsten Palmer, and Professor Rhonda Stuart.
