St John of God Health Care

St John of God Health Choices is a division of St John of God Health Care, one of the largest providers of health care services in Australia.

St John of God Health Choices provides home nursing services in the Australian states of Victoria and Western Australia. Health Choices has bases in Ballarat, Bendigo, Berwick, Geelong, Melbourne, Subiaco and Warrnambool.

Health Choices was established in 2009 at part of St John of God Health Care’s five-year expansion plan. Building on the company’s existing home nursing services, Health Choices was created as a separate division to provide home nursing in sites where it had not existed before.

In May 2010, St John of God Health Choices increased its services by acquiring Melbourne-based nursing provider M&M HealthPower.

The Health Choices service is free for veterans and people with private health cover.
