Please note: As of 1 February 2021, the Victorian Health and Human Services Building Authority (VHHSBA) became the Victorian Health Building Authority (VHBA).
Construction is progressing on Australia’s first dedicated state-of-the-art cardiac facility – the Victorian Heart Hospital. The new hospital will play a central role in transforming Victoria’s cardiac care system.
The new hospital will integrate clinical cardiology services, research, and education. Located on the Monash University Clayton campus, patients with heart disease will have access to world-class cardiac care and research – all under one roof. The hospital will be operated by Monash Health.
Construction of the new hospital is well underway, with major works commencing earlier this year and cranes now on site. Due for completion in 2022, the hospital will provide lifesaving diagnosis and treatment for thousands of patients each year.
