Caring for the health of the community for more than a century, Mater brings together a collective expertise across health, education and research, with a shared vision of empowering people to live better lives through improved health and wellbeing.
Mater’s commitment to our Mission compels us to change to meet the needs of our community and the environment in which we operate. This means moving beyond the hospital, the classroom and the laboratory, being closer to our consumers and delivering new products, programs and services to meet emerging community needs.

Welcome to Cabrini Health
Cabrini is owned and operated by the Missionary Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Jesus who came to Australia in 1948 to take over the management of a 45-bed community hospital named St Benedict’s. Cabrini now has more than 800 beds and a comprehensive range of health services. There are acute facilities at Malvern and Brighton. The Cabrini Institute supports education and research, in order to continually improve the quality of care and educate tomorrow’s health professionals. Cabrini Technology provides an innovative, independent information and healthcare technology service to organisations throughout Australasia and has headquarters in Mount Waverley. More recently, Cabrini has established an Asylum Seeker and Refugee Health Hub in Brunswick, which provides access to a range of health services for people seeking asylum and newly arrived refugees.
Cabrini is a not-for-profit health service and all surpluses are used to develop our services and facilities to provide the best possible care for patients and families. Cabrini supports and operates a number of other programs for disadvantaged people in our community.
Patient care is the primary focus of our work and at the heart of all we do.
