General Manager’s Message
What a night at the Ryde Hospital 90th Birthday Ball. It will go down in the history books for the hospital, as will the fantastic flash mob. Thank you to Renae McCarthy for acting in the General Managers role whilst I was on leave. She did an excellent job of leading the hospital through a very challenging period of high demand. There were some big milestones for the redevelopment this month with the finalisation of the Main Works Contract and the sod turn ceremony to formally launch construction. Work has started on construction of the temporary ICU and the bathroom replacement on GR5 has been completed. I would like to encourage all staff to complete the People Matter Employee Survey . Your feedback will help support you and improve our workplace and culture.
