Wattletree Health Group provides exceptional home nursing services in Melton South (postcode 3338), a suburb in the City of Melton, about 38km north-west of Melbourne’s CBD. Our experienced, AHPRA-registered nurses support clients in Melton South and neighbouring Melton, Harkness, Cobblebank and Toolern Vale, whether the need is short-term after a hospital stay or ongoing, long-term clinical care.
Melton South is home to Melton railway station — the primary rail terminus for the City of Melton — which connects the area to Melbourne’s CBD via the V/Line Ballarat service, running to Southern Cross Station. The suburb developed as Melton’s residential area spread southward from the 1970s, and the large commuter car park at Melton station reflects the township’s identity as a car-dependent satellite community that is working to improve its public transport links. The Toolern Creek corridor provides linear parkland along the suburb’s southern boundary.
