Surf Coast Shire Council is working with Hesse Rural Health and Lorne Community Hospital on a model for the future of aged care services in the shire.
The model could see Hesse Rural Health and Lorne Community Hospital taking over provision of aged care services for clients in zones incorporating Winchelsea and Lorne respectively.
