‘Game changer’: Australia’s first cardiac hospital opens
Program director cardiologist Professor Stephen Nicholls says patients can access a range of treatments under one roof.
Australia’s first dedicated cardiac hospital has been described as a “game changer” for heart health, ahead of its opening this week.
Following a similar model to specialist cancer hospitals, the 206-bed Victorian Heart Hospital in Melbourne integrates clinical cardiology services, research and education in a centre of excellence.
