Orbost Medical Clinic is a BULK BILLING clinic. We will never ask for your financial information, and HotDoc will never contact you seeking your bank account details for refunds.

What you should do:
- DO NOT provide your bank details via text, email, or over the phone.
- If you are ever unsure about a message you receive, do not risk it—hang up or close the message and call our clinic directly on 5154 6777 to verify.

Using the Official HotDoc App safely:
- To ensure your communication is genuine, we highly recommend managing your bookings directly through the official HotDoc smartphone app rather than relying on links in SMS messages or emails.
- The official app is a secure way to book and confirm your appointments, and it will never ask you to input your bank account details for a refund.

International Nurses Day 12 May 2026

“Our Nurses. Our Future. Empowered Nurses Save Lives.”

On this International Nurses Day we proudly recognise and thank every nurse working for Orbost Regional Health for the extraordinary care, compassion, and dedication you bring to our community every day.

From the bustling Urgent Care Centre to the outreach provided by District and Palliative Care Nursing, the compassion shown every day by Community and Aged Care teams and clinical expertise provided by Nursing Education - you are the heart of our health system. Your skill, resilience, and unwavering commitment make a profound difference in the lives of patients, families, and communities.

Nurses are often there in life’s most vulnerable moments – offering clinical expert knowledge and comfort, understanding and hope. Your work goes far beyond treatment; you are advocates, educators, leaders, and pillars of strength for those in your care.

In the face of ongoing challenges and change you continue to show remarkable courage and professionalism.

Today, we celebrate you. We honour your contribution, acknowledge your hard work, and stand with you in supporting a stronger, more sustainable future for nursing.

Thank you for everything you do – today and every day.
