Wattletree Health Group provides exceptional home nursing services in Clarinda (postcode 3169), a residential suburb in the City of Kingston, about 18km south-east of Melbourne’s CBD. Our experienced, AHPRA-registered nurses support clients in Clarinda and neighbouring Clayton South, Heatherton, Dingley Village and Moorabbin, whether the need is short-term after a hospital stay or ongoing, long-term clinical care.
Clarinda is named after a property established in the district in the 19th century. The suburb developed primarily in the postwar period and is conveniently located close to Westfield Southland — one of Australia’s largest shopping centres, which opened at Cheltenham in 1968 — and the major industrial precincts along Boundary and Centre Dandenong Roads. Kingston Heath Golf Club, one of Australia’s most prestigious courses and host of multiple Australian Opens, lies just to the south of Clarinda.
