Providing 24-hour medical and nursing care for our community.
Yea & District Memorial Hospital provides 24-hour medical and nursing care for people in Yea and surrounding communities.
Our Acute Ward provides care for patients who require admission to hospital for a range of medical needs. Patients may be admitted following presentation to Urgent Care, through a planned admission, or transferred from another hospital.
We care for both public and privately insured patients.
Our Acute Ward has 10 beds, providing a comfortable environment for patients who need inpatient care.
Four single rooms and three twin-share rooms.
All patient rooms have ensuite facilities.
A dedicated palliative care bed is available within the ward.
This will look much better than putting all of those details into paragraphs.
Patients may be admitted to YDMH Acute Ward in several ways.
Patients may be admitted for planned care where an inpatient stay is required.
YDMH accepts appropriate patient transfers from other hospitals for ongoing care closer to home.
Patients may be admitted following assessment where inpatient medical and nursing care is required.
The Transition Care Program (TCP) provides short-term care and support for older people following a hospital stay.
YDMH supports the Transition Care Program in partnership with Goulburn Valley Health. Access to the program follows assessment by the Goulburn Valley Health team.
Transition Care is goal-oriented, time-limited and therapy-focused. It aims to help older people improve their independence and confidence following a hospital stay.
Depending on individual needs, support may include:
The program may support a person’s return home or provide additional time and assistance while longer-term care arrangements are considered.
Our team works with patients, families and carers to provide safe, respectful and individualised care throughout their stay.
Your care will be planned with you and based on your individual health needs, preferences and goals.
We recognise the important role families and carers can play and encourage their involvement where appropriate and with the patient's consent.
Discharge planning begins during your stay. Our team will work with you to help arrange appropriate services, follow-up care or support when you leave hospital.
