The Royal Melbourne Hospital shapes the healthcare and research leaders of the future in collaboration with our teaching and training partners, including the University of Melbourne.
Learning is more than just education at the Royal Melbourne Hospital (RMH) - it is a commitment to deliver excellence in care and research for our patients and consumers.
We are a leading academic health service with a focus on ongoing learning and development for our people.
The RMH provides development opportunities for staff at all levels both clinically and non-clinically. As a leader in clinical teaching and training, we look to shape the healthcare and research leaders of the future in collaboration with our teaching and training partners.
