Our haematology service has expanded, now providing patients and clinicians across our sites with access to a haematologist at any time.
The expanded service is delivered by a growing team of haematologists serving Ballarat, Horsham and Stawell through clinics. As part of the expansion, frequency of clinics in Horsham is expected to increase within the next six months.
“Our goal is to deliver the same level of specialist haematology care available in metropolitan areas. By providing round-the-clock support and expanding outreach services, we are reducing unnecessary travel for those in the region and ensuring patients receive the right care, in the right place, at the right time,” Dr Swe Htet, Head of Haematology, said.
Dr Htet also emphasised that with Grampians Health doctors living and working in the region, they understand the needs of the community better and tailor their treatment plans accordingly.
“Since we understand the local services, we can tailor our recommendations for follow up care closer to home. This means fewer unnecessary transfers, quicker access to treatment, and more patients being safely managed close to home.”
