Future nurses, doctors, allied health professionals and healthcare leaders all under one roof 🙌

More than 650 students attended the Southern Highlands Careers Expo to explore the diverse and rewarding careers available in healthcare.

It was incredible to see so much passion, curiosity and engagement from the next generation of the healthcare workforce.

Thank you to Regional Industry Education Partnerships for making this event happen.

We are partnering with researchers at the University of Wollongong to conduct a study into young children’s screen use. This research will help develop a future health promotion campaign on healthy screen use for children aged 3-5 years.

If you live in south west Sydney and are a parent or caregiver of a child aged 3-5 years, we’d love to hear from you! We are asking parents or caregivers to complete a survey about their child’s screen use. The survey is available in English, Arabic and Vietnamese.

A memorable moment from Britt's nursing career đź’™

Britt Martin, Clinical Nurse Specialist, found her passion for paediatric nursing early in her career.

Beginning at Westmead Children’s Hospital, Britt saw how powerful compassionate, family-centred care can be in supporting children and their families through vulnerable times.

Now at Bowral & District Hospital, she continues to advocate for children and provide high-quality care as part of a dedicated team.

“Paediatric nursing holds a special place in my heart,” Britt said.

The shorter days and crisp chill we’re feeling in the morning is a sure sign that autumn is here!

At this time of the year many of our trees give their last hurrah of colour before shedding their leaves for winter. The camellias and azaleas are also showing off their colourful blooms.

Niyat Gebrehiwet, Midwife on the Maternity Ward at Bowral & District Hospital, says she always knew she wanted to work with women and chose midwifery when the opportunity came.

She finds meaning in supporting women and their families during some of life’s most vulnerable moments, creating a safe and calm space where they feel empowered and cared for.

“I’m constantly in awe of the strength and courage I witness every day,” Niyat said. Working alongside a dedicated team of midwives, she says she is proud to be part of a profession built on connection, support and trust.

This International Day of the Midwife, we celebrate midwives like Niyat, who empower women and make a difference every day.

Human Experience Week is a reminder that healthcare is more than systems and processes - it’s people.

This year’s theme, Together in Action: Listening, Learning, Transforming, highlights the power of everyday moments in shaping care.

Because every interaction matters, and every voice has the ability to transform experience.

A key element of the new mortuary area in the General Services Building is the family room, an important space for bereaved families. The new family room is a quiet space where families can be together and support each other at the saddest of times. A lot of thought and consideration has gone into the design to ensure that families feel comforted in the space.

What a transformation!

At the end of winter last year, the Watson building had been demolished, and the internal demolition of Milton Park ground floor had just commenced.

A short six months later the transformation of the former maternity ward on the ground floor into a modern loading dock and back-of-house engine room is complete!

The new mortuary is operational, the Transfer of Care, Digital Health and HealthShare teams have moved in, and all deliveries for the hospital are now received via the new loading dock.
