CE Anthony Schembri with the RNSH social work department
Social workers greeted on Chief Executive’s first day NSLHD Chief Executive Anthony Schembri wasted no time in hitting the ground running in his new role, starting his first day with a visit to where his career in health management started – the RNSH social work department. Anthony has an extensive background in social work and joined the department in 1998 as a manager of a team of three social workers. It was the first promotion Anthony had received in health and he still has very fond memories of his time at RNSH. “Social workers play a big role in helping our patients, their families and carers at a very vulnerable time,” he said. “Whilst I’ve gone on to work in different areas of health throughout my career, I will always be a proud social worker first and foremost.” Annual Muru Dali Gili Gili Employee Network Day The fourth Annual NSLHD Muru Dali Gili Gili Employee Network Day was recently held at Northern Sydney Education and Conference Centre (NSECC) at Macquarie Hospital.
