Orbost Regional Health (ORH) has purchased the Merindah Centre building on Forest Road, and will use the space to provide aged care and disability services, as well as local training and skills development workshops. 
The Merindah Centre is a community-funded building that was previously operated by Noweyung, which provides support for people with disabilities
in East Gippsland. 
Noweyung is no longer able to provide services in Orbost, but ORH has identified the centre provides an opportunity for the health service to expand its aged care and disability services, and provide new offerings for local skill development. 

CAPTION: The vacant Merindah Centre has been purchased by Orbost Regional Health (ORH) with the aim of providing aged care and disability services according
to ORH director of community services, Mitchell Schwenke (inset)
