Unit Manager: Ms Elizabeth Ryke
Hours: 7.30am – 8.30pm seven days a week
Hospital in the Home provides short-term acute care for patients with specific medical conditions who choose to receive inpatient care in their own home. Patients admitted to HITH are considered to be inpatients of the hospital and may be admitted to HITH from the Emergency Departments at Western or Sunshine Hospitals, Outpatients Departments or from a general ward at Western or Sunshine Hospital. All referrals to HITH must be faxed. The HITH nurse will assess patients prior to acceptance into the program.
Hours of operation are 7.30am to 8.30pm, seven days a week. Out of hours there is a nurse on call for patients to contact and for new internal referrals.
GPs cannot at this stage refer to HITH directly, however, patients who had their PEG inserted at Western Health will be treated. Please call 8345 1793 (between 7.30am and 4.00pm) and 0438 599 095 out of these hours.
