💙 A remarkable patient story from Mulgrave Private Hospital 💙

What began as a simple act of community spirit—decorating the Beaconsfield Community Christmas tree—turned into a months-long medical journey for Louise Sterling. Living with POTS, Louise fainted while wrapping tinsel, resulting in a broken foot and a series of complications that led to multiple admissions, surgeries, and ongoing treatment.

From her time in Kenny Ward, Burnet, and Florey, Louise received weeks of care including IV antibiotics, complex wound management, and multiple procedures. Along the way, she built strong connections with our nursing and kitchen teams, who she says became “part of her world” during her stay.

Despite the challenges, Louise never lost her sense of humour - naming her mobility aids “Neil” the scooter and “Charles Le Chair” and remained focused on returning home to her family, her dogs she rescued from medical research facilities, and the community she supports so passionately.

Louise is the driving force behind a local food pantry, volunteers daily, and serves as secretary of the Beaconsfield Tennis Club. Even during her recovery, her resilience and generosity have continued to shine.

We’re so proud to have been part of Louise’s journey and wish her all the very best as she heads home

At Mulgrave Private Hospital, it’s the people - our patients and our staff - that make every story matter. Your surname suits you to a tee Louise!

This ANZAC Day we recognise the commitment and courage of the many men and women who have fought and served to protect our freedom and way of life.

Today marks 110 years since the first ANZAC soldiers stormed the beaches of Gallipoli in the darkness before dawn. When the sun set on 25 April 2015, more than 600 Australians had lost their lives and over 1,000 had been injured. The list of the dead would grow to over 11,000 ANZACs by the end of the Gallipoli campaign.

They shall grow not old,
as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them,
nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun
and in the morning
We will remember them.

Lest We Forget.
