Welcome to your world away!

“Prepare to run, roll, stroll, jump, soar, taste and say yes often; but don’t forget to breathe. Raise your glass to the sun or firelight and ponder whether the local blue or a crumble of fudge best compliments the flavour. Sink back on the grass with the tingle of a bush plucked strawberry fresh on your lips.”

Timboon and District Healthcare Service is a multipurpose service providing a range of health services ensuring optimal health and overall well-being for individuals, allowing them to fully participate in, and contribute to their community. This is also reflected in our vision, mission and ICARE values: Integrity, Compassion, Accountability, Respect and Excellence.

Located in picturesque Timboon, a small town tucked into a wooded valley just 17 km north of the 12 Apostles coastline bursting with flavour and charm, working at our healthcare service will give you the opportunity to earn your living nurturing your desire to help others, while breathing fresh country air and exploring all that this beautiful part of the world has to offer.

A strawberry farm, gourmet food store, cafes and eclectic shopfronts complement the Distillery and Timboon Fine Ice-cream and are all in walking distance from the healthcare service and every day offers a possibility to partake in a new adventure. You can touch the blue and go for a surf or you can immerse yourself in the green by taking a walk or bike ride over statuesque trestle bridges through wooded grassland and tall wet forest. Feel like less intense wellness activities, like photography or painting? Then be inspired by local tourist attractions like the 12 Apostles, London Bridge and Bay of Islands, which are only a 15-minute drive away. They offer spectacular sceneries and opportunities to spot some local wildlife; over 2 million tourists can’t be wrong!

Still want a taste of the hustle and bustle of a big town now and then? Warrnambool is only 40 kms away and you can be in Geelong within a 2-hour drive. Putting together the perfect live, work, play recipe is up to you.
