WORKING TOGETHER FOR BETTER CARE
Yea & District Memorial Hospital is part of the East Metro and Murrindindi Local Health Service Network.
Local Health Service Networks bring health services together to plan and coordinate care across their region. The aim is to make it easier for people to access the right care, in the right place, at the right time — while supporting more care to be provided closer to home.
Established across Victoria on 1 July 2025, the Networks provide a more coordinated approach to healthcare while allowing individual health services to maintain their local identity, leadership and connection with their communities.
Working together allows health services to better coordinate care and plan services around the needs of the communities they serve.
Supporting people to receive appropriate healthcare locally wherever possible.
Improving pathways between local, specialist and larger health services when additional care is required.
Working together on workforce planning, recruitment, retention and support.
Sharing knowledge and approaches to strengthen the quality and safety of healthcare across the Network.
Being part of a Local Health Service Network does not change the identity of Yea & District Memorial Hospital.
YDMH retains its name, local leadership, identity and connection to our community while working collaboratively with other health services to improve access to care.
The Network focuses on several key priorities to support more connected and sustainable healthcare for our communities.
Improving pathways between services and supporting people to access appropriate care.
Planning together to strengthen and sustain the healthcare workforce.
Supporting safe, person-centred and consistent care across the health system.
Identifying opportunities for health services to work more efficiently together.
