Today marks the final day of our COVID-19 surge workforce operations at Residential Aged Care Facilities (RACFs) across Australia.

COVID is a new norm in RACFs and as such, the program funded by the Australian Government has come to a close.

In total, our teams deployed to more than 1,000 RACFs, assisting 77,000 elderly residents.

From the first healthcare professionals who entered aged care homes stricken by COVID back in early 2020 as Clinical First Responders, to our teams who vaccinated across the aged care sector, to those who supported aged care homes during the floods in North Queensland in 2025, and the project management team behind them - we thank you for your expertise, dedication and compassion in caring for our most vulnerable.

Last week, our team in Fiji achieved another significant milestone with the successful completion of the first-ever cardiac stenting procedure at the Lautoka Hospital Cardiac Catheterisation Laboratory (Cath Lab).

A Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) Stenting is a minimally invasive procedure to open blocked arteries in the heart. The procedure marks another major step forward in the delivery of advanced cardiac care for patients in the Western Division.

46-year-old Vimelsh Kumar from Votualevu, Nadi, became the first patient to undergo the procedure. Mr Kumar, who had been suffering from severe chest pain and experienced a heart attack in August, expressed his gratitude following the procedure.

“I’m thankful to the doctors involved in the procedure. This procedure has given me another new lease of life,” he said.

The procedure was successfully led by Aspen Medical Specialist Physician/Cardiologist Dr Bharatvansh Bali.

In 1918, on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month - the guns fell silent, bringing an end to the Great War.

Today, we remember all those who have died in conflicts across the globe, those who have served, and those who continue to serve.

As a veteran-owned business and employer, we acknowledge the sacrifice and service of our veteran employees, past and present, across our global organisation.

Lest we forget.

Dogs like Lingo, need people like Kelly-Ann...

We’re proud to celebrate one of our own, Kelly-Ann King, for her contribution to a cause close to many hearts at Aspen Medical.

Kelly-Ann’s volunteer work with Integra Service Dogs Australia was recently featured in Region Canberra, shining a light on how dogs like Lingo are helping veterans and first responders reclaim their independence and wellbeing.

At Aspen Medical, we back our people in making a difference, whether that’s delivering healthcare in remote regions or supporting community causes beyond their day jobs. Many in our workforce are veterans or work alongside them, and we are committed to recognising and supporting their ongoing service to others.

Today, we’re celebrating a year in Lihir! 🎉

Over the past 12 months we’ve provided healthcare not only to our client Newmont Corporation on the island, but also to 30,000 locals at the Newmont-owned medical facility on this island in the New Ireland Province of Papua New Guinea.

We’ve managed more than 11,000 hospital presentations and seen over 250 babies delivered.

Commenting on the first anniversary, Group CEO Craig Fitzgerald said, “Delivering these services in this unique and often challenging environment requires not only skills and expertise, but also dedication and compassion.”

It has been a privilege to bring world class healthcare to this remote part of the Pacific.
