β¨ Celebrating 45 years of compassionate care β¨
What a night to remember! On 5 July, we marked our 45th anniversary with a special gala ball β bringing together staff, volunteers, Visiting Medical Practitioners, Auxiliary members, and special guests to honour a legacy of care, community, and commitment.
Our General Manager, Shane Mitchell, welcomed attendees with heartfelt words, reflecting on our incredible journey β from Elsa Wilsonβs visionary dream in 1980, to the thriving 196-bed hospital we are today. Phil Drager also gave a beautiful blessing to mark the occasion.
We were proud to welcome Elsaβs children, Duncan and Heidi, along with representatives from the UnitingCare Board, our Medical Advisory Committee, and partner hospitals.
From humble beginnings to more than 25,000 patients cared for each year, nearly 19,000 babies delivered, and over 850 dedicated staff β Buderim Private Hospital is not just a place of healing, but a true community.
Thank you to everyone who joined us to celebrate this milestone. Scroll through the photos for a glimpse of a truly special evening π
