For many, Christmas is spent at home with loved ones.

For others, it’s spent caring - or being cared for - here at the ONJ Centre.

To our staff, patients, families and community (especially those spending the day with us!), we wish you a safe, gentle and Merry Christmas 🎄

Today we celebrate the 13th birthday of the Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness Centre.

From the ground up, Olivia played a hands-on role in bringing her vision to life — a place where patients receive not only world-class cancer treatment, but also the holistic care and compassion that supported her throughout her own cancer journey.

As a pioneer of Cancer Wellness, Olivia believed deeply in caring for the whole person — mind, body, spirit, and heart. Because of her vision, thousands of patients today can access free supportive programs such as art therapy, music therapy, exercise physiology, oncology massage, psychology, and other evidence-based therapies that bring comfort, confidence, and strength during treatment.

As we head into the holiday season, we’re mindful of the many patients who will spend this time at the Centre — receiving care, finding support, and leaning on these essential wellness programs.

This season, you can make a meaningful difference. A gift to the Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness Centre helps ensure these life-changing programs continue to be available to every patient who needs them.

Join us in honouring Olivia’s legacy and supporting patients this Christmas.

This week, we celebrated 743 staff who reached years of service milestones, ranging from 10 to 45 years, with our annual Years of Service Awards. 🎉

Together, these staff have provided a staggering total of 13,315 years of service to Austin Health and our patients!

We caught up with Peggy Finegan, After Hours Site Manager at the Royal Talbot, who marked an impressive 45 years, and asked her to share some memorable moments from her time at Austin Health.

Their contribution makes a meaningful difference to patient wellbeing during what can be a challenging time.

The ONJ Radiation Oncology service delivers world-class radiation therapy using state-of-the-art equipment, advanced techniques, and the expertise of our highly skilled multidisciplinary team — including Radiation Oncologists, Radiation Therapists, Medical Physicists, Oncology Nurses, and allied health professionals.

A heartfelt thank you to Ryman Healthcare Australia!

Ryman Healthcare has raised an incredible $115,283.86 for the Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness Centre.

Over the past 12 months, residents, and staff from Ryman’s nine Australian villages have come together to make a difference – hosting bake sales, quizzes, raffles, and other fundraising initiatives in support of people living with cancer.

On Monday 27 October, Ryman Healthcare Chief Operating Officer Marsha Cadman presented the cheque to Susan Bird, Head of Partnerships at Austin Health.

This generous donation will directly support the Wellness Centre, which receives limited government funding. Every dollar raised helps provide crucial wellness and supportive care programs that offer strength, comfort, and hope to people navigating the challenges of a cancer diagnosis.

The ONJ Centre continues to honour Dame Olivia Newton-John’s legacy of combining science and compassion in patient care – ensuring that every person is treated with dignity, understanding, and holistic support.

A very big thank you to Ryman Healthcare, their residents, and staff from all of us at Austin Health and the Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness Centre.
