We provide a range of support to assist patients, consumers, families and carers to access services at the Royal Melbourne Hospital.
Coming to hospital may be a uncertain and confronting experience for many reasons. We also recognise that there are members of our community whose background or identity puts them at a higher risk of worse health outcomes.
That's why we work with our patients and consumers to review and improve the way we operate to better meet our community's needs.
No matter who you are, how you identify, or what your background or beliefs are, we want you to feel safe, and know that you will always receive exceptional care.
