Wattletree Health Group provides exceptional home nursing services in Braeside (postcode 3195), an industrial and commercial locality within the City of Kingston, about 24km south-east of Melbourne’s CBD. Our experienced, AHPRA-registered nurses support clients in Braeside and neighbouring Mentone, Mordialloc, Keysborough and Dingley Village, whether the need is short-term after a hospital stay or ongoing, long-term clinical care.
Braeside is a locality in Melbourne’s south, best known for the Braeside Park — one of Melbourne’s most significant and beloved outer-suburban nature reserves, managed by Parks Victoria and encompassing over 250 hectares of grassland, wetland and bush habitat on the Mordialloc Creek floodplain. The park is an extraordinary natural asset on the edge of Melbourne’s southern industrial corridor, providing important habitat for native grassland species, waterbirds, and the eastern barred bandicoot — one of Australia’s most endangered mammals, subject to a long-running conservation and reintroduction program. The park’s trails, birdwatching hides and wetland areas make it a popular recreational destination for residents of the surrounding Kingston communities. The broader Braeside area is primarily industrial, with a concentration of warehousing, light manufacturing and logistics operations along Governor Road and National Boulevard, but the residential communities of Mentone, Mordialloc and Dingley Village immediately adjacent provide the residential base for home nursing in this part of Melbourne’s south.
