What we do

Day Medical provides you with same-day in-patient service for the administration of:

Our service is staffed by oncologists, haematologists and registered nurses trained in the administration of cytotoxic agents. The unit is also supported by allied health staff and patient services assistants employed at Melton Health.

There is zero cost for this service.
