We're shining a spotlight on the S.T.A.R.S. of perioperative nursing!

This week, we proudly recognised Perioperative Nurses Week and celebrated the incredible people who keep our operating theatres safe and running smoothly:
⭐️ Scrub/Scout Nurses: The vital link who anticipate the needs and hand the surgeon everything they require.
⭐️ Theatre Technicians: Our dedicated sterilising and logistics team ensuring equipment is perfect.
⭐️ Anaesthetic Nurses: The compassionate experts keeping patients comfortable and safe throughout procedures.
⭐️ Recovery Nurses: The first friendly faces who support patients immediately after their procedure.
⭐️ Support Staff: The critical team (administrators, cleaners, managers, and educators) who keep the theatre doors open and running smoothly.
Thank you for your unwavering commitment and dedication to our patients, always.

🎉Congratulations Ignazia – winner of the St Vincent’s People Awards 2025 for Volunteer of the Year!

Ignazia has been a dedicated volunteer at SVPHS for over 11 years. Her compassion and attention to detail truly embody our mission and values, and her consistent positivity and energy make a remarkable difference to everyone—staff and patients alike.

Over the past four years Ignazia also took on the role of Volunteer Coordinator, providing support and guidance to new and existing volunteers. Her approachable manner makes her a trusted resource for the entire volunteer team. Her can-do attitude and genuine kindness uplift the hospital community as a whole. It’s a privilege to work alongside her.

We are thrilled to shine a light on Kit, one of our exceptional Clinical Nurse Specialists (CNS), who was recently named the recipient of the prestigious 2025 Mary Aikenhead Award.

This colleague-nominated award is a powerful testament to Kit's work. His colleagues praised his "compassionate care" and noted that he is always willing to "go above and beyond."

Kit was genuinely surprised and deeply honoured. He admits the acknowledgment was "unbelievable," sharing that "this award gives me the confidence in my role."

With over 24 years at St Vincent Private Hospital, Kit puts his tenure down to the strong bonds he has established with his team. A "natural leader," his simple advice to new nurses is: "observe and listen - the best nurses, are also the best communicators and listeners.”

Thank you for all you do to care for our patients. Always.

Some of our team members were back volunteering at the Asylum Seekers Centre this month. St Vincent’s Private Hospital Sydney has had a partnership with the Asylum Seekers Centre for over 20 years creating opportunities for our employees to give back to the community and providing members of the centre with a nutritious meal and various supports.

For Lucilia, this was her first time volunteering, and her experience was deeply moving:

"Serving lunch was more than just serving a meal—it was a moment of connection. Each smile, each 'thank you,' reminded me of the dignity we all deserve. I left with a full heart and a deeper understanding of resilience. I felt humbled and honoured by the gratitude received."

This week we acknowledge Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) Week and recognise the incredible efforts of our team to keep our hospital safe.

It's a reminder that everyone has a vital role to play in keeping our patients safe. Simple, consistent actions, like thorough hand hygiene make a big difference.

At SVPHS we prioritise managing risks to keep staff, patient and visitors safe while in our facility. Always.

Congratulations to Maria on her 45-year Service Award!

Today, we celebrated this remarkable achievement with a surprise morning tea. Maria started at SVPHS when our current facility had been open for just 18 months! In that time, she’s seen countless changes—from staff and leadership to kitchen functions and food handling protocols.

Yet, as Maria shared, "Even after seeing many changes, the one thing that hasn’t changed is the sense of family with my colleagues." She added that after all these years, she still enjoys coming to work every day.

Our hospital General Manager – Matt Wall, said that “Maria’s length of service speaks volumes about her character and ability to adapt to all the changes she has seen and experienced over the years - still finding the energy and pride in her work to keep coming back is really special. In today's world where these kind of length of tenures are uncommon; we are so proud of our organisation and mission that has created a purpose to build a welcoming and sustaining culture for all our staff”.
