Work with REDHS

REDHS is a well-established small rural health service in the region, delivering a diverse range of services to our local communities including allied health, community and in-home support, residential aged care, urgent care and acute inpatient care services to a population of approximately 10,000 people from around Rochester and Elmore. Our community extends across two Shire boundaries – the Campaspe and the Greater Bendigo Shires.

Our Vision, “Caring for our Community”, acknowledges the community we live and work in is vitally important to us. We enjoy a strong relationship with our community and we are focused on delivering services that meet their needs.

REDHS main campus is located at Rochester with outreach facilities in nearby towns such as Elmore, Rushworth, Lockington and surrounds.

Rochester is the gateway to the mighty Murray River region and both Elmore and Rochester are close to the regional centres of Echuca, Bendigo and Shepparton. Known for their friendly communities and rural landscapes, these towns offer a peaceful and supportive environment for both work and leisure.

Following the Rochester floods in October 2022, an extensive rebuild and refurbishment of our facility was undertaken, reopening in January 2025.
