Introduction
At Northern Health, we take care of the residents of Melbourne’s north, by providing a diverse range of health services, at Northern Hospital Epping, Broadmeadows Hospital, Craigieburn Centre and Bundoora Centre. We also collaborate with our partners to help expand the range of healthcare services offered to our culturally rich and diverse community.
Northern Health provides a vibrant, fast-paced workplace, with the busiest Emergency Department in Victoria. We are located in the rapidly growing northern suburbs, which is driving us to think innovatively about the needs of the population and what the health system of the future might need to look like to meet those needs.
As an organisation, we are shifting our focus from illness to putting a spotlight on supporting our community in ‘staying well’. In order to achieve this, we are developing strong relationships with other health service providers and the community across the region, to help us think differently about the future.
Northern Health provides a dynamic working environment, with a strong culture of teamwork, diversity, safety and respect.
Our Strategic Plan
Northern Health’s Strategic Plan for Northern Health includes the following elements -
Our Vision:
A healthier community, making a difference for every person every day.
Our Values:
