Macquarie Hospital newsletter - June 2025

From My desk

Dear All

I hope everyone is wrapping up warm and avoiding all of the colds/flu/covid. The roll out of the flu vaccine has had a good uptake by staff and don’t forget it you have not been vaccinated you need to wear a mask in both clinical and non-clinical areas. The service is working on a plan to roll out the covid vaccine across the site for consumers in the coming weeks and this will hopefully help reduce the covid out breaks and keep everyone well.

We recently said a fond farewell to Louise Ingram and Carmen Heffernan after 56 and 22 years respectively. A morning tea was held to mark the occasion and acknowledge all of the wonderful work they have both done here, at Macquarie as a whole and specifically in the social work. There were many people at the event, including staff past and present, plus department representatives from the MHRT who Louise and Carmen have been closely working with for decades. It is the end of an era for the social work team, and we wish Louise and Carmen all the best in their well-earned retirement
