These beautiful nurses in our Palliative Care ward make such a huge difference to our community members.
For families with loved ones needing end of life care, or care for a life limiting illness, these nurses and our team of caregivers in Granada are there for them.
We are so fortunate to have this service in the South West.
Thank you to the community members and donors who have supported the courtyard refresh with new outdoor furniture and some lovely greenery. Our patients and their families greatly appreciate this space.

Thanks to the generosity of our community, the palliative care courtyards at St John of God Bunbury Hospital have been refreshed with calming greenery and inviting seating.

Located next to each room, these outdoor spaces give patients and families the opportunity to take time away from the hospital room, share precious moments and to find peace during their care journey.

To everyone who helped make this project possible, thank you for your support and kindness in helping to bring comfort and dignity to patients and their families.

This week we celebrated St John of God Day with our caregivers.

We held a special Mass in our chapel and invited caregivers to join us for a luncheon.

During these activities we pause to reflect on St John of God's call to "do all the good works that you can".

Thank you to all of the caregivers who do good work in preparing this day for each other and making it a special occasion.

Thanks also to those caregivers who share the load with their teams so that others can take time out 🙏

Today we celebrate the feast day of Saint John of God.

More than 400 years ago, John walked the streets of Granada, Spain, and saw suffering he could not ignore. He carried the sick on his back, driven by a simple belief: the person in front of him deserved dignity and care.

As we reflect on Saint John of God’s call to “do all the good works that you can,” we are reminded that every good work is connected. Across our hospitals and services, these everyday moments of care add up to something extraordinary.

Today, we are proud to be an organisation that bears his name, founded by the Sisters of St John of God, whose legacy of compassion and service continues to guide the way we care for our communities.

Tomorrow we look forward to celebrating St John of God Day with our caregivers @ St John of God Bunbury Hospital

Last week we were delighted to recognise our nursing graduates at a special ceremony on Wednesday 🧡🧡🧡

After participating in the St John of God Health Care nation-wide nursing graduate ceremony, streamed live to us, we presented our Bunbury graduates with a special gift and a certificate to recognise this milestone.

They were also blessed by our Pastoral Services Manager Marisa in our beautiful chapel.

We are so proud of our newest graduates for all your efforts. We also want to take a moment to thank our nursing preceptors and every caregiver who supports these graduates along their journey.

Congratulations to first year Registered Nurse graduates: (pictured) Ellie, Beth, Liana and Gemma (and Hannah and Leah). Second year Registered Nurse Jessica from our Oncology program was also recognised.

Great to see one of our specialist doctors Dr Raj Zaman giving back to the community by mentoring local students on their path to studying medicine.
We know that medical students from regional areas are much more likely to return to a regional area to work so this is a great initiative.
