Allied health at Monash Children’s Hospital

Monash Children’s Hospital provides allied health services to inpatients, to outpatients and via our home based team.

We work as part of an integrated interdisciplinary team to provide children, young people and their families with expert allied health services. Together as a team, we will improve the health of infants, children and adolescents in our community.

Monash Children’s Hospital Clayton is a teaching hospital and as such you may encounter Allied Health students who are on their practical placements during your child’s appointment or inpatient stay. The students have a comprehensive support and supervision program in place in order to ensure that all patients receive a professional service.
