Local family says a colourful thank you

Employees on their way to and from Monash Medical Centre have been delighted to see messages of support pop up in the windows of a nearby house.

The house, which faces the Clayton site, is home for four children – Niah, K.J., Bryce and Casper.

As their mum Shelly explains, Niah, who is the eldest, came up with the idea as a way to thank the hundreds of our people they see driving past every day.

All four children were born at Monash, and K.J. and Casper have ongoing challenges that mean the family has a very strong connection to our health service.

Shelly said she was happy to share their message with all our employees across Monash Health, knowing “you’re always doing a great job, but now even more so.”
