Recently we were delighted to welcome Queensland Minister for Health and Ambulance Services, Tim Nicholls MP, to The Wesley Hospital.

During his visit, the Minister toured the site of our planned new Wesley Expansion health precinct, which aims to create Brisbane's largest private comprehensive cancer care centre. He also met with patients whose surgeries were facilitated through the Queensland Government’s Surgery Connect program — an important initiative helping more Queenslanders receive timely treatment.

Thank you to Minister Nicholls for taking the time to meet with our team and patients.

"I found my place here and what a privilege it's been."

After recovering from a car accident that kept her out of work for a year, Ann said she was grateful to land a hospital job as they were nearly impossible to get at the time. That was 45 years ago, when Ann Hennessey started her first shift as a customer service attendant here at The Wesley.

In the early days, Ann worked directly on the wards and became a familiar face to many patients, especially those who returned regularly. She went on to become second-in-change and now dining host, and has delivered countless meals to our patients. Through every decade, she has witnessed the hospital transform, from advances in technology to more recently the shift to on-demand room service meals.

"It was daunting at first, but slowly this became my ultimate job," Ann said. “I’m from the old school and I never thought I'd be using tablets to take meal orders. But The Wesley has always been evolving.”

"We manage well because everyone pulls together. That's what The Wesley has always been about, looking after each other so we can look after our patients," Ann says with pride.

Aside from her work which she describes as deeply meaningful, it’s been the people and colleagues who’ve become lifelong friends that have made The Wesley such a special place for Ann.

Please join us in congratulating Ann as we celebrate her service and the great example she continues to set of what it means to show up every day, adapt to change, but never lose the human touch which makes all the difference.

Steve Daniels’ first day at The Wesley was in November 1980 – 45 years ago this month. He started out working in the kitchen, before moving to the operating theatres where he became an orderly about five years later.

He’s been a part of our theatre team ever since and is an icon of the profession here at The Wesley. The kilometres he has walked while ensuring patients are safely moved around the hospital, are simply too many to count.

“I have seen the hospital grow from the original building and as each stage has been added, including the Moorlands Wing and the medical suites. And I’ve been able to see many clinical advancements and changes over the years,” Steve reflects.

But when asked what inspires him and what has kept him motivated for the past four and half decades, Steve credits his teammates and colleagues and said, “Good relationships, having supportive co-workers and a positive team culture.”

Please join us in congratulating Steve, a true legend of our team, on this outstanding milestone in a career that’s been dedicated to those we serve.

🌟 Today is World Prematurity Day, a moment to shed light on the 1 in 10 babies born prematurely. Raising awareness is the first step in the fight against preterm birth. 💙

Our Special Care Nursery is a haven for babies born pre-term from 32 weeks' gestation, those facing health challenges, or those in need of a little extra support. 💕

Our dedicated team of neonatal nurses, midwives, and paediatricians works tirelessly to provide essential support not only to these precious babies but also to their parents and families.

Let's join hands in raising awareness, supporting research, and spreading love for all the little fighters out there!
