Welcome to the La Trobe/Austin Health Clinical School of Nursing
The La Trobe/Austin Health Clinical School of Nursing was established in August 2002 as part of a timely reform to meet the contemporary needs of Australian health care services.
The Austin Hospital is one of Australia’s largest teaching hospitals. Inpatients are housed in the new Austin Hospital Tower, which features purpose-built modern facilities including one of the state’s largest emergency departments.
The Austin Hospital is home to a number of state-wide services, including the Victorian Liver Transplant Service, the Victorian Spinal Cord Service and the Victorian Respiratory Support Service.
