Wattletree Health Group provides exceptional home nursing services in Wishart (postcode 3189), a sub-locality in the Moorabbin area within the City of Kingston, about 18km south-east of Melbourne’s CBD. Our experienced, AHPRA-registered nurses support clients in Wishart and neighbouring Moorabbin, Highett, Cheltenham and Bentleigh East, whether the need is short-term after a hospital stay or ongoing, long-term clinical care.
Wishart is a small locality within the Moorabbin area — an established inner south-eastern suburb with a strong industrial and commercial heritage, well known as a centre of light manufacturing that has gradually transitioned to a more mixed-use profile. Moorabbin Airport, one of Melbourne’s busiest general aviation airports, operates in the area and handles training flights, charter services, and cargo operations. The suburb’s convenient position between the Nepean Highway, South Road, and the Frankston rail corridor makes it highly accessible, with Highett and Moorabbin stations nearby. Southland Shopping Centre at Cheltenham provides major retail services for the area.
