November 9–15 is Perioperative Nurses Week 💙

We’re celebrating the incredible nurses who care for patients before, during, and after surgery.

Our Ballarat team celebrated in the sweetest way: with a show-stopping cake baked by Libby Fenton, one of our talented Perioperative Nurses (and clearly a master baker!). This wasn’t just any cake, it was a layered chocolate, red velvet, white chocolate and raspberry masterpiece featuring caricatures of the entire theatre team, complete with their unique scrub caps!

Libby said it best: “I like making a cake to celebrate our amazing team and give everyone a chance to enjoy the week together.”

A big thank you to Libby and all our Perioperative Nurses across campuses for their care and dedication every day. You truly make a difference!

Our new website is live! 🎉

We are pleased to announce that our new Grampians Health website went live as planned on 29 October.

This site has brought together five websites (from Ballarat, Edenhope, Dimboola, Horsham and Stawell). We have also developed microsites for Research, Fundraising and Aged Care.

For the past twelve months, we have worked with community members (thank you!) from across the region to ensure we captured information in a way that makes your search as simple as possible.

However, a website is never ‘complete’. It requires constant updating and checking as information and services evolve. So, if you notice anything that doesn’t work, or doesn’t seem right (about any of the sites listed below) please let us know here: https://my.gh.org.au/43ozYNB

Stawell Podiatrist Andrew Nashed is taking a big step in his medical career as he studies to become a GP. Now in his first year of study at Deakin University in Ararat, Andrew is gaining hands-on experience through placements at our Stawell campus and medical centre.

Andrew said he was loving the opportunity to study within his local area.

“At the moment I am based at the university in Ararat one day a week and then four days studying at home,” he said. “Next year I will have more parallel sessions with the doctors at Stawell Medical Centre and I hope to do my third-year rural placement with Grampians Health Stawell, where my wife Bec works as a theatre nurse.”

Andrew's placement has included radiology, Macpherson Smith Care Community, Stawell Medical Centre and Community Services-Allied Health Occupational Therapy.

Clinical Support Educator, Shev Healey, said it was important to be able to support Mr Nashed, noting, "Hopefully he will eventually be practicing here as a GP which would be the best outcome for our community,”

Recently, a group of our Physiotherapists from Stawell, Ballarat and Horsham represented Grampians Health at the Australian Physiotherapy Association Career Connect evening in Hawthorn.

The event provided a fantastic opportunity to promote the highly supportive and rich learning environment that our organisation provides for new graduates. Students that attended the evening were enthused to learn about our early careers and physiotherapy grade one program, as well as the inclusive and collaborative culture that we are lucky to have regionally.

We look forward to welcoming new colleagues to our Grampians region in 2026.

For any queries about our Physiotherapy grade one positions, please contact sarah.hewitt@gh.org.au.

📸 Physiotherapist Kaylem Stone (Stawell), Tom Mooney (Ballarat), Amy O’Sullivan (Horsham), Lisie Dodds (Ballarat) and Kirsten Andrich (Ballarat) enjoyed an evening of connection and inspiration.

🧶 Handmade blankets bringing warmth and comfort 💛

A big thank you to the Stawell Bowling Club Ladies Craft Group for their generous donation of beautiful handmade blankets.

These vibrant blankets will bring warmth and comfort to patients during longer stays — and Ward Clerk Michael has already given them his seal of approval after testing one out! ✨

We’re so grateful for the kindness and creativity of our community.

The final session of the Allied Health Early Careers Program was held in Stawell, bringing together participants from cross campuses for an engaging day of reflection and career planning. This face-to-face event provided an invaluable opportunity for early career professionals to connect, share experiences, and explore strategies for shaping their future in health care.

The program is designed to support the transition from student to professional while fostering the skills and attributes essential for success in allied health roles. Key objectives include:
✅ Interprofessional orientation to the health service
✅ Building confidence in interdisciplinary teamwork
✅ Developing core professional knowledge and attributes
✅ Commitment to research and evidence-based practice
✅ Cultivating lifelong learning and reflective practice
✅ Enhancing critical thinking and adaptability in change management

Through interactive discussions and reflective exercises, participants explored their career goals and considered how to leverage these skills to thrive in dynamic health care environments. The session highlighted the importance of collaboration, adaptability, and continuous learning—cornerstones of professional growth in allied health.

Thank you to all participants for your enthusiasm and commitment throughout the program. Your contributions have strengthened our allied health community and set the stage for ongoing success.

For more information about the program, contact Kelsey Morcombe, Deputy Manager Occupational Therapy Junior Workforce, at Kelsey.Morcombe@gh.org.au.

A large crowd helped raise over $3700 at Stawell Hospital Auxiliary’s annual fashion parade in the Powerhouse recently.

Auxiliary president Pam Byron said the money raised on the evening would go toward the purchase of vital equipment for Grampians Health’s Stawell campus.

Lisa Dalziel won first prize in the major raffle draw with Janeen Aubrey collecting second prize and Marietta Rowe taking third. Ms Byron thanked Kay Evans for being Master of Ceremonies and was also appreciative of the models on parade throughout the evening.

“The event would not have been such a success without the support of the Stawell shops that exhibited items including Clark’s Stawell, Sneek a Peek, Foster’s Mensland and Grampians Harvest,” Ms Byron said.

“I also want to thank the raffle donors Sandy McGregor, Industry and Co Hairdressing, Stawell Craft Shop and Bi-Rite Home Appliances.”

Grampians Health Director of Engagement Tamara Reynolds attended and was very impressed with the event.

“The auxiliary do an amazing job organizing this event each year and it was a very enjoyable evening,” Ms Reynolds said.

“I can assure the community that every cent raised by the auxiliary is spent on equipment for the Stawell campus.”

Grass pollen season brings an increased risk of asthma and hay fever. It also brings the increased chance of thunderstorm asthma.

🌾🌩️ Thunderstorm asthma is thought to be triggered by a unique combination of high amounts of grass pollen in the air and a certain type of thunderstorm. For people who have asthma or hay fever this can trigger severe asthma symptoms.

❗ If you have current, past or undiagnosed asthma or seasonal hay fever you are at risk of thunderstorm asthma. Even if you don't think you have asthma or hay fever, don't ignore symptoms like wheezing or shortness of breath.

Thunderstorm asthma can be sudden, serious, and even life threatening.

Know the risks. Get prepared. Stay safe.
