Leave a legacy that will make a difference.
We understand that making a Will is a very personal matter and one that requires careful thought and consideration. Once you have adequately cared for your family and loved ones you may wish to consider leaving a gift in your Will to Northeast Health Wangaratta. In doing so, you are leaving a lasting legacy that ensures future generations receive the very best in health care.
To make a contribution to Northeast Health Wangaratta, please read through A Gift in your Will.pdf brochure. If you do decide to leave a gift in your Will the right wording is important to ensure your wishes are met. We have provided a Will and Bequest guide.pdf for more information, but when revising or making a Will, we recommend seeking independent professional advice to guide you through the process or visit Victoria Legal Aid, a government site that can provide you with information about making a Will.
If you have any questions or would like to arrange a confidential meeting to discuss your options, please contact the Giving Team on (03) 5722 5920.

At Northeast Health Wangaratta, we care about our volunteers and the enormous contribution they make to our organisation. Our volunteers are viewed as being integral members of our workforce and NHW is focused to ensure the same level of governance is applied to their management as any other employee. A Framework for Health Volunteer Management was launched in June 2021.
The CAC is a group that gives advice to the leaders of Northeast Health Wangaratta. The CAC has 8 positions for community members who are patients, people who use our services, family members, and community representatives. They help us work better with these important groups when we plan, provide services, and make their healthcare better.
The CAC is led by a member of the NHW Board. They are a strong and caring voice for making sure we partner well with the people we're here to help. The CAC's responsibilities and rules are explained in the Committee Terms of Reference and Member Code of Conduct. There's also a detailed description of what being a CAC member involves.
If you want to be part of the CAC, you'll need to go through a formal interview process. If you're chosen, you'll be added to the NHW consumer participation register.
