A/General Manager’s Message July was a busy month with Winter peak activity in full swing. Thank you to all of the staff who have worked to support our patients during this busy time. Substantial progress in the demolition of the old hospital buildings with the full size of the construction site now apparent. Piling works will commence in August and we look forward to the arrival of the first crane on site. The results of the Patient Safety Culture Survey provide encouraging feedback with scores for Ryde increasing between 5 to 10% in all categories. See page 5 for further details with department specific results to be circulated shortly. The latest Australian & New Zealand Hip Fracture Registry data has identified Ryde Hospital as the number 1 performar in Austalia for time to surgery. I would like to recognise the excellent team work that goes into achieving this result, and the positive impact that this has on our patients.
