Wattletree Health Group provides exceptional home nursing services in Moorabbin (postcode 3189), an established suburb in the City of Kingston, about 16km south-east of Melbourne’s CBD on the Frankston rail line. Our experienced, AHPRA-registered nurses support clients in Moorabbin and neighbouring Bentleigh, Highett, Cheltenham and Heatherton, whether the need is short-term after a hospital stay or ongoing, long-term clinical care.
Moorabbin was known as “South Brighton” until 1909, when it adopted the name of the Moorabbin Roads Board District that had governed the area since 1862. Its most iconic landmark is RSEA Park — better known as Moorabbin Oval — which has been the spiritual home of the St Kilda Football Club since 1965, when the Saints moved here and attracted 51,370 fans to their first home game against Collingwood. From nearby Mordialloc and Braeside came some of Australia’s greatest racehorses, with champion thoroughbreds trained on the bay shorelines for over a century.
