Wattletree Health Group provides exceptional home nursing services in Clayton (postcode 3168), a major suburb in the City of Monash, about 16km south-east of Melbourne’s CBD. Our experienced, AHPRA-registered nurses support clients in Clayton and neighbouring Notting Hill, Clayton North, Mount Waverley and Oakleigh East, whether the need is short-term after a hospital stay or ongoing, long-term clinical care.
Clayton is named after Captain William Clayton, an early settler of the 1840s, and was one of the first parts of the Monash area to develop, alongside Oakleigh, around the railway in the late 19th century. The suburb is home to one of Australia’s major university campuses — Monash University Clayton, established in 1961 and named after First World War commander and engineer Sir John Monash. Clayton has one of Melbourne’s most culturally diverse populations, with Cantonese and Mandarin speakers making up over 22 per cent of residents, reflecting significant Chinese community settlement from the 1990s onwards.
