Victorian Heart Hospital
Australia's first dedicated heart hospital is located in the eastern precinct of our Clayton campus and was completed in early 2023.
The new heart hospital has allocated spaces for Monash University students to learn, research and gain experience studying alongside industry experts. This includes training facilities for cardiac medicine, nursing and related healthcare professions.
The hospital accommodates approximately 195 beds, an emergency department, cardiac catheterization labs, specialist surgical and imaging facilities and tele-medicine services for Victorian, interstate and even international patients. The hospital has the capacity to provide 2,000 cardiac surgeries per year and 108,000 consultations and outpatient appointments.
The hospital will include a helicopter landing pad and noise from the helicopter flight paths will be heard in the residential halls located near the hospital at any time of the day or night. Emergency helicopters play a key role in providing medical and trauma services to patients who are critically ill or who may be involved in serious accidents. The proposed flight paths are shown below:
Additional works on Sports Walk which will improve access to the VHH will occur from September 2023 to April 2024.
