Farewell to Georgie McBride

Georgie, Wellbeing Unit Senior Dietitian, finished at Macquarie Hospital on 17th February.

Georgie has been a valued member of the Wellbeing Unit team for over 4 years. She was a strong advocate for prioritizing physical health at Macquarie, both for the individual consumers under her care and across the site, through leading the Metabolic Audit and representation on many committees. Her collaboration with Food Services led to the establishment of Build Your Own Burrito Bowl and sandwich/salad bars to increase variety at the lunch time meal service. Her most recent work has resulted in the piloting of point of service choice on Parkview, Bridgeview, Henley & Tarban at the evening meal service. Georgie also regularly provided student supervision, growing the dietetics workforce and giving students exposure to the unique opportunities in MHDA. If you worked with Georgie in any capacity, you know she brought a wealth of knowledge, expertise, and dedication, to everything she did. Macquarie Hospital wishes Georgie every success in her new role as Head of Department, Nutrition & Dietetics, Mona Vale Hospital.

Thank you and farewell Georgie!
