About Calvary Health Care Bethlehem

Calvary Health Care Bethlehem in Parkdale is recognised as a leader in its two areas of expertise; as a Statewide provider for those with Progressive Neurological Disease (such as Motor Neurone Disease and Huntingtons’ Disease) and as a Specialist Palliative Care Service.

Our services are vital to the Victorian community, supporting thousands of patients and their families each year.

Known for our innovative model of care, our interdisciplinary teams work in collaboration with the patients GP, community health, aged, disability and other health services, to ensure that care is easily accessible and coordinated across our inpatient services, centre-based clinics, day centre and at home.

Building on our innovative schools program and working together with our local council and community organisations, we aim to encourage open and honest discussion about death, dying, grief and loss, so that we can build better communities of support for people.
