Wattletree Health Group provides exceptional home nursing services in Glenferrie South (postcode 3122), a residential pocket in Melbourne’s inner east within the City of Boroondara, about 9km east of Melbourne’s CBD. Our experienced, AHPRA-registered nurses support clients in Glenferrie South and neighbouring Hawthorn, Hawthorn East, Camberwell and Auburn, whether the need is short-term after a hospital stay or ongoing, long-term clinical care.
Glenferrie South is a small residential locality within the broader Hawthorn area in the City of Boroondara, sharing its postcode and urban character with Hawthorn’s established streets of Victorian and Edwardian homes, apartment buildings and tree-lined boulevards. The area derives its name from Glenferrie Road — one of Melbourne’s great inner-eastern shopping and dining strips, running from Kooyong north through Hawthorn — and sits at the southern end of this important local precinct. Glenferrie Road offers an outstanding array of independent cafes, restaurants, specialty retailers, the historic Swinburne University Hawthorn campus, and the Glenferrie railway station on the Alamein line. The Hawthorn Football Club’s headquarters and Hawthorn Community Bank Stadium are nearby, and the suburb’s proximity to the Yarra River and the expansive parklands of the Yarra corridor — including Yarra Bend Park and Alexandra Gardens — provides exceptional recreation and nature access for residents. Boroondara’s comprehensive community health, aged care and service infrastructure serves the area well. Receiving care at home in Glenferrie South means staying in this vibrant inner-east community, close to family and the best of Melbourne. Wattletree Health Group‘s home nursing care is tailored to each client’s needs, helping reduce the need for hospital or GP visits while keeping care personal and consistent.
