This afternoon ADH held a thank you afternoon tea for the staff and family members who supported our community during the devastating January bushfires. It was a lovely time, with everyone enjoying the chance to pause, connect, share stories and simply be together after such a challenging period. There was warmth, gratitude and a real sense of community in the room.
A heartfelt thank you to Robert, Beryl and Karynn Tucknott for so generously donating their time, food and baking to make the afternoon so special. Your kindness and generosity was very much appreciated by all.

Today, Alexandra District Health and Eastern Health announced that our Boards have formally recommended a voluntary amalgamation.

This follows the completion of a comprehensive business case and consideration of staff, stakeholder and community feedback.

This recommendation has been submitted to the Victorian Department of Health and the Minister for Health for consideration.

Importantly, no changes will occur unless and Minister approves the proposal. In the meantime, it is business as usual.

The recommendation is focused on strengthening access to care closer to home and supporting the long-term sustainability of local healthcare.

If approved, it would build on our established partnership with Eastern Health and expand inpatient care, increase specialist clinics and low-complexity surgery services, introduce a dialysis service, strengthen oncology services, and improve local access to diagnostics.

You can learn more and access FAQs here: www.connectingcare.net

We will continue to keep our community informed.
