Staff

Under Australian Taxation Legislation, Bass Coast Health is able to offer employees access to tax concessions via Salary Packaging.

When employees Salary Package, they reduce their taxable income, therefore increasing their take-home pay. Salary Packaging allows employees to pay for items from their pre-tax salary.

At Bass Coast Health, a wide range of salary packaging options is offered to employees, including:

• Capped Living Expenses– some examples include Credit Card Reimbursement, Mortgage Payments/Reimbursements and threshold card
• Remote housing benefit options.
• Non-capped items which include meals, entertainment and accommodation reimbursement, and a meal card.

Employees of Bass Coast Health can find out more about Salary Packaging options by going to the Maxxia website or by calling them on 1300 123 123.

Bass Coast Health offers off-site accommodation approximately 5-10 minutes’ drive or within walking distance to Bass Coast Health – Wonthaggi Hospital. The off-site accommodation provided by BCH consists of two, three and four bedroom properties, some of which is shared accommodation.

For security purposes all bedroom doors can be locked while unattended. 

In the shared housing, there is a communal lounge area with a television, large kitchen, dining area and laundry. All cooking appliances and kitchen utensils are available for residents to use. Bathroom facilities are shared between residents. 

Each bedroom has a double bed or king single bed with basic linen and towels supplied, study desk, chair and lamp. Residents are encouraged to bring home comforts such as their own doona, quilts or pillows to ensure they are most comfortable during their stay as heating/cooling appliances aren't always available.

Basic cleaning products are supplied. It is the responsibility of our tenants to maintain the cleanliness of the communal areas by regularly vacuuming and mopping the floors, emptying bins and cleaning shared spaces such as the bathroom and kitchen. Laundry facilities are also provided including washing machine, dryer, iron and ironing board, pegs and clothes airer. If any cleaning products or equipment are needed, these can be requested via email through the BCH Accommodation team.

Our cleaning team will only visit the property to restock cleaning supplies/equipment where needed and to clean vacated bedrooms. We would appreciate your bedroom and all shared spaces being kept clean and free of rubbish at all times.

BCH has access to the HealthDirect portal so that staff can conduct telehealth appointments with patients. 

Video Call has been developed by HealthDirect Australia to make it easy for healthcare providers to offer their services via video consultation. Consumers can connect with the relevant BCH clinician from their home, from work or from wherever is most convenient, using everyday devices: smartphone, tablet or desktop computer.

Virtual clinics have been setup to facilitate telehealth across a range of disciplines. Clinicians will be set up with accounts to process video calls in their respective clinics. Organisational support will be provided, with generic accounts that can see waiting callers across clinics to facilitate MasterCare admissions.
