Wattletree Health Group provides exceptional home nursing services in Chelsea Heights (postcode 3196), a residential suburb in the City of Kingston, about 33km south-east of Melbourne’s CBD. Our experienced, AHPRA-registered nurses support clients in Chelsea Heights and neighbouring Chelsea, Aspendale Gardens, Carrum and Patterson Lakes, whether the need is short-term after a hospital stay or ongoing, long-term clinical care.
Chelsea Heights was developed from the 1980s as part of Kingston’s southern residential expansion, built on elevated land inland from the Port Phillip foreshore. The suburb is close to the Edithvale-Seaford Wetlands — a significant coastal wetland listed under the Ramsar Convention and critical for migratory shorebirds — and shares the Chelsea name and its connection to Kingston’s bayside character.
