Melbourne from its five hospital sites: Monash<br />
Medical Centre Clayton, Moorabbin Hospital,<br />
Dandenong Hospital, Casey Hospital (Berwick), and<br />
Kingston Centre; Cranbourne Integrated Care Centre<br />
and five community health sites. All services provided<br />
at these sites are linked to provide a “system of care”<br />
from community through acute care to rehabilitation<br />

catchment of more than 1 million residents and had<br />
over 3.1 million episodes of care across its various<br />

age 19 admitted to our Monash Children’s Hospital<br />
wards and neonatal units, as well as 224,460 mental<br />
