Our hospital joins the nation today in remembering the immense sacrifices made by past generations of servicemen and women.

We also acknowledge the servicemen and women who continue to protect and support our nation to this day.

Each November, people around the world 🌎 unite to raise awareness and funds for men’s health through Movember - focusing on mental health and suicide prevention, prostate cancer, and testicular cancer.

Our hospital is proud to support this important cause. Movember isn’t just about growing a moustache it’s about starting conversations that can save lives and reminding one another that it’s okay to talk about health, both physical and mental.

Across our national hospital network, team members are getting involved by growing a mo, hosting events, and spreading awareness. Whether it’s a freshly sprouted moustache, a walk with colleagues, or a chat over coffee ☕ about mental wellbeing, every action makes a difference.

Here’s how you can join in:
〰️ Grow: Sport your mo proudly this Movember.
〰️ Move: Run, walk, cycle, or swim 60km for the 60 men lost to suicide every hour across the globe.
〰️ Host: Bring people together from morning teas to team challenges to spark meaningful conversations.
〰️ Donate: Support a colleague or contribute directly at movember.com.

Together, we can help change the face of men’s health one conversation, one moustache, and one movement at a time 💚

Breast Cancer Awareness Month 💗

This October, we pause to honour the strength, courage, and resilience of everyone impacted by breast cancer.

We recognise the ongoing efforts of healthcare professionals, researchers, and support networks who are making a difference every day in the fight against this disease.

This month is a time to raise awareness, encourage early detection, and stand together in support of those newly diagnosed, those undergoing treatment, and the families and loved ones who walk alongside them.

Our hospital remains committed to building a culture of care and compassion, standing in solidarity with all those affected by breast cancer 🎗️

🧡 World Patient Safety Day – Teamwork in Action

Today is World Patient Safety Day, and at our hospital we’re highlighting the importance of surgical safety through the power of teamwork.

A key part of this is Team Time Out – a brief pause before surgery where the team confirms the patient’s identity, the procedure, and the surgical site. This critical step which forms part of the World Health Organisation’s Surgical Safety Checklist enhances communication, prevents errors, and keeps patient safety front of mind.

This July marked the fifth year of Time Out audits across our hospital network, and it was our biggest and best yet! Every one of our 22 hospitals participated, with 462 doctors audited by Nexus Hospitals nursing champions – the highest level of engagement to date – further strengthening the compliance and collaboration across our theatres.

A huge thank you to our doctors and employees who made this year such a success, and our Chief Medical Officer Anthony Chambers for leading this important initiative. Patient safety starts with our teams around the table and together we’re making every check count.

💛 Today is R U OK? Day 💛

Caring for people is at the heart of everything we do not just for our patients, but for each other.

R U OK? Day is an important reminder to check in with the people around us. A simple, genuine “Are you okay?” can open the door to a conversation that makes all the difference.

In healthcare, we’re often busy giving our best to others, and it’s easy to miss the small signs that a colleague or friend might be struggling. You don’t need to have all the answers - just being present, listening without judgment, and encouraging support can truly help.

We encourage everyone today, and every day, to:
✔️ Check in with someone you care about
✔️ Listen with empathy
✔️ Encourage seeking help when needed
✔️ Take time to look after your own wellbeing too

Our hospital is committed to building a culture of kindness, compassion, and connection. Thank you to our incredible team for all that you do not just today, but every day.

Let's keep the conversations going. 💛

💗 Women’s Health Week: Say yes to your health, it’s worth it.

This week we're proud to support Women’s Health Week and encourage our clinicians, staff, and patients to put their well-being first. It’s more than awareness—it’s your reminder to prioritise your health.

This week’s focus:

✅ Every check matters: Stay up-to-date with routine checks and screenings.
🧭 Take the lead: Come prepared—use the right info and tools to get more from your appointments.
❤️ Heart smart: Heart disease affects women in ways often overlooked—let’s talk about it.
🦋 Pain to power: Pain isn’t “just part of being a woman.” You don’t have to push through it alone.
🧠 Be kind to your mind: Caring for mental health is just as important as caring for your body.

Our commitment:

🩺 Encouraging regular health checks and early screening
🧠 Providing confidential mental health support through TELUS Health
🌱 Supporting wellness programs across our national hospital network
🗣️ Fostering a workplace where women feel safe to speak up, seek support and be recognised

To all the women in our hospital and local community: your health matters. We celebrate you, we stand beside you, and we’re here for you. 💗

🦷 It’s National Dental Health Week! 🪥

This week, we’re proud to support the outstanding work of our dental surgeons across our national hospital network who care for patients with expertise and compassion.

Dental Health Week is a timely reminder of the small, consistent habits that help maintain healthy teeth and gums, especially for our youngest patients. This year’s focus is on reinforcing the importance of building lifelong habits from an early age.

The core principles of excellent oral hygiene remain simple but powerful:
1.🪥 Brush twice a day with fluoride toothpaste
2. 🧵 Clean between teeth daily using floss or interdental brushes
3. 🥦 Eat a nutritious, low-sugar diet
4. 🦷 Visit your dentist regularly

By supporting prevention and education, our dental teams play a vital role in promoting lifelong oral health.

👁️ It’s JulEYE – National Eye Health Awareness Month 👁️

This month, we’re proud to support JulEYE, a national campaign raising awareness about the importance of eye health, early detection, and preventing avoidable vision loss.

We’d like to give a big thank you to our incredible ophthalmologists and dedicated ophthalmic surgical nursing teams. Your expertise, care, and commitment help protect the gift of sight every day.

💙 From working closely with GPs and optometrists to delivering advanced surgical care, your impact on patients' lives is something to celebrate.

🔍 Why it matters?
Up to 75% of vision loss is preventable or treatable with regular eye checks.

👓 Protect your vision:
• Book your eye test this July
• Wear UV-blocking sunglasses
• Use protective eyewear for DIY projects
• Follow the 20‑20‑20 rule for screen time
• Eat a healthy, eye-friendly diet
• Quit smoking

This JulEYE, let’s look after our eyes—and thank the amazing teams who do just that every day.
