MTHCS is an innovative integrated Multi-Purpose Service (MPS) and we are located in the heart of the Mallee in North West Victoria.
The MPS model was developed to meet the needs of rural communities where the market has failed and the workforce is thin – integration of services and workforce is what makes our health service viable.
We are a public sector entity – and to enable access to services we often host other partners (private, public and philanthropic).
We provide services to meet the growing need of our communities. These needs are identified through our strategic planning processes and in consultation with our communities.
As an MPS we provide services across the age and life span – from early childhood education and care to residential aged care. We have a diverse workforce which reflects the nature of the services that we provide. As a health service we are immensely proud of the work of this service – and the staff and volunteers who continue to connect us together.
Our catchment consists of 18,000 square kilometres and captures the communities of Ouyen, Murrayville, Underbool, Patchewollock, Sea Lake, Manangatang and surrounding districts.
