For six months now, we’ve been doing our bit for the environment by donating unused containers to local schools, such as Yarrunga Primary’s art department.

Containers such as bowls, kidney dishes and measuring jugs are recycled to be used in the school’s art classes.

Our GP Liaison Officer Wendy visited Yarrunga Primary recently to drop off some donations and talk to their students about sustainability and the importance of reusing items for different purposes.

Our team at Wangaratta Private Hospital is very passionate about our sustainability program, which continues to expand as we identify opportunities around the hospital.

Wangaratta Private Hospital proudly joined the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women and the 16 Days of Activism.

One of our nursing students on placement, Skyla from Box Hill Institute, inspired us to take part in this important initiative. Thanks to her motivation, our staff and wider community came together to donate bags with essential provisions to support women and placed the filled bags at Bunnings to help those in need.

We celebrated Skyla’s leadership, along with the efforts of our team, with orange cupcakes, 1800Respect information packs, and meaningful conversations that built a deeper understanding of this year’s focus: Digital Abuse.

In the photo: Skyla is standing with Allison, seated is Emmily (a GoTafe student also on placement) and Tamara with Kerrie and Olivia standing with them.

R U OK? Day reminds us that conversations about mental health matter every day, not just once a year.

Checking in with a colleague, friend or family member and really listening can make all the difference. Sometimes, that simple conversation is the key to opening the door to the support someone needs most💬💛

The Wangaratta Dorcas Quilters group have been working extremely hard again to support the patients in Wangaratta Private Hospital.

Their generous donation of quilts for the palliative patients (all with different themes and colours to represent the person that is being admitted), has made a huge difference to patients, their carers and family.

These quilts then belong to the patient and family. Sue Matthews, from Wangaratta Dorcas Quilters is seen presenting to Wendy the GPLO from Wangaratta Private Hospital, a selection of quilts and pillows.

The hand crafted pillows are square, with a pocket at the front of the pillow, fitted out with a children’s book, and these pillows are presented to children admitted for their ENT surgery, so that they have an improved experience of their stay in hospital. The pillow is placed on their bed prior to arrival, and the child sees this when brought into their room. The book inside the pocket is an added gift. This pillow goes home with them, and will always remind them of their stay.

To have the Quilter group understand the needs of palliative patients and also our young humans that need that extra support, has been a wonderful part of our collaboration with each other. Their sensitive and practical approach is greatly appreciated.

� A thousand reasons to celebrate with 1,000 Mako robotic surgeries completed!

We’re proud to celebrate with Dr Mike Falkenberg, who performed Wangaratta’s first Mako-assisted hip replacement, and Dr Richard Kjar, who completed our first knee replacement using the robotic technology. These experienced surgeons have helped bring advanced precision and faster recovery to patients across northeast Victoria.

Also celebrating the milestone were members of our outstanding team: � (L-R): Alicia, Shelley, Sharon, Suzanne and Janet – who’ve all played a key role in making this achievement possible. Here’s to the next 1,000!

The Wangaratta Private Hospital team had a fantastic time at Cathedral College's Careers Night yesterday, meeting local students and sharing insights into the many rewarding pathways in health.

From hands-on demonstrations with theatre instruments and intubation techniques, to conversations about nursing, pharmacy and study options—our passionate team brought the world of healthcare to life.

Special thanks to:
- Suzanne (RN) and Dr Jade Radnor (Anaesthetist) for their engaging theatre activities
- Wendy (RN) who shared her 43 years of nursing experience
- Jo from Ramsay Pharmacy for highlighting the diverse roles in pharmacy and nursing
- Allison (RN) who guided students through subject choices and career planning, and talked all things Ramsay Values, job prospects and study pathways.

It was a great opportunity to show that a career in healthcare can truly take you anywhere. Thank you to Cathedral College for having us!
