About the Victorian Fetal Alcohol Service (VicFAS)


The Monash Children's Hospital provides all paediatric and neonatal services for Monash Health across three campuses MMC Clayton, Dandenong and Casey hospitals.

It is Australia's third largest children's hospital and Victoria's largest provider of neonatal services, with 226 beds across three campuses.


The Victorian Fetal Alcohol Service (VicFAS) is a specialist assessment service based at the Monash Children's Hospital, which undertakes multi-disciplinary diagnosis of children with prenatal alcohol exposure and complex neurological, developmental, and behavioural symptoms.

The service provides clinical training in Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) diagnosis for paediatricians, psychologists, speech therapists, teachers, occupational therapists, and social workers.

A secondary consultation service is available for paediatricians.

VicFAS is led by the Head of FASD Services, Developmental and Community Paediatrics and the team includes a Clinic Coordinator, paediatrician, neuropsychologist, school teacher, speech therapist, social worker and occupational therapist.


Children referred from a statewide catchment for assessment with VicFAS will typically experience severe impairments in multiple areas including cognition, attention, learning, speech and language, motor skills, executive function or adaptive functioning.

They will have a history of prenatal alcohol exposure and are also likely to experience other complex psychosocial factors affecting their development and functioning.


VicFAS current service extends within Regional Victoria to provide additional diagnosis, support and education to children aged 3-10yrs, families and health practitioners.

The Regional VicFAS program involves diagnostic outreach clinics to regional sites, a Regional Consultation service, and support to the regional VicFAS navigators.

The VicFAS is supported by the Developmental Paediatrics team at Monash Children's Hospital.
