Medihotels provide accommodation and hotel services for self-caring patients accessing acute hospital services. As a substitute for multi-day admitted inpatient care, Medihotels ease the transition between the community and acute care and help patients to access hospital services. Patients accommodated in a Medihotel include people who are mobile, self-caring, have daily living skills and are able to manage their own medications. They need minimal or no supervision and do not require overnight hospital inpatient care. These include patients who are required to be observed at home with an adult post care, but either live alone, do not have that designated person for the night or they live far away from hospital.
The Framework for Medihotels in Victorian public health services has been developed to assist health services in planning, organising and delivering Medihotel services, and to support continued service improvements. If you live over 100km one way from a Specialist hospital where you are having treatment, part of your Medihotel stay might be paid by the government. Ask us for more information.
