Description
Monash Medical Centre Clayton is one of the States major teaching and referral hospitals and is the largest within the Southern Health providing specialist care to the States southeast
The Monash Medical Centre was formed in 1987 as the result of the amalgamation of three preexisting hospitals the Queen Victoria Medical Centre Prince Henrys Hospital and Moorabbin Hospital
Its creation was a response to the great demographic changes which have occurred in Melbourne over the past decade and part of a broader plan to enhance services to meet the health care needs of the next century
In 1995 it joined with Dandenong Hospital Kingston Centre Sandringham amp District Memorial Hospital and Hampton Rehabilitation Hospital to form the Southern Health Care Network In July 2000 the organisation changed to become Southern Health Victorias largest Metropolitan Health Service Sandringham Hospital is now part of Bayside Health
