DPV Health is honouring its 5th Birthday this month with a lovely celebration for our employees, volunteers and community representatives.

Since commencing on the 29th of March 2018, DPV Health has grown to become Northern Melbourne’s largest Not-For-Profit Community Health organisation. With 19 sites, and over 800 employees, volunteers and community advisors, DPV Health supports a catchment of over 600,000 people across Melbourne’s northern growth corridor.

As an industry leader in the planning and delivery of innovative, person-centred healthcare across the diverse communities of Melbourne’s North, DPV Health provides an extensive range of medical, dental, mental health, allied health, paediatric, aged care, disability, family violence, family violence, homelessness and other community services.

Don Tidbury CEO said “A great deal has been achieved since DPV Health commenced in 2018 following the merger of Dianella Health and Plenty Valley Community Health. Ultimately, we exist to serve the health and wellbeing needs of Melbourne’s outer North. None of this would have been possible without the amazing support our employees, volunteers, community representatives, industry partners and Board. We are very grateful for their contribution”.

DPV Health’s key achievements over the last 5 years include:

• Leading the largest community based COVID Response for Northern Melbourne: Testing, vaccinations, social housing supports, COVID Positive Pathways, GP Respiratory Clinics and Home Visiting Programs

Harmony Week Celebration

20th – 26th March 2023

Harmony Week is an occasion to acknowledge the positive aspects of living in a multicultural society, celebrate how far we have come as a community and promote positive messages of belonging.

DPV Health hosted a Harmony Week Dinner for our Community Advisory Network. When you have a strong support network to rely on for friendship and support, it is much easier to overcome the e ects of racism. Our diversity is one of our greatest strengths.
