About Royal Melbourne Hospital

The Royal Melbourne Hospital (RMH) began in 1848 as Victoria’s first public hospital. And while we only had 10 beds to our name, we had the community of Melbourne behind us, and we were ready to provide the best possible care for those in need. Healthcare has changed a lot since then, but our desire to serve the people of Victoria with an appropriately skilled and compassionate workforce has not. We’re still at the forefront of innovative research and discoveries – working hard to redefine the highest standards of care. Excellence is something we strive for together. We’re committed to working alongside our partners in care, research and education, so we can shape the next generation of leading clinicians, scientists, researchers and educators. We’re for Melbourne’s health and have considered how we can best contribute to the health needs of the community, which is reflected in our purpose, values and community promise: Our purpose: Advancing healthcare for everyone, every day Our community promise: Always there when it matters most Our values: People first. Lead with kindness. Excellence together. The RMH includes our City, Royal Park campuses, 32 mental health sites across the north-western suburbs of Melbourne known as RMH NorthWestern Mental Health, and the world-renowned Peter Doherty Institute for Infection and Immunity, which is a joint venture with the University of Melbourne.
