Ermha Origins
In 2007, St John of God Pinelodge Clinic established the Ermha Origins project in partnership with the Eastern Region Mental Health Association (ERMHA).
The project aims to provide greater access to mental health care for people who come from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds in Greater Dandenong.
Waste reduction initiative
In 2010, Pinelodge Clinic introduced the hospital-wide use of the “Biocup” to reduce the disposal rates of medication drinking cups. Biocups are re-usable, biodegradable cups made from plants (cornstarch).
