“There were eight kids in the family, very adventurous days, and seven of us are still alive. When Dad was working out at Burramine doing fencing, we got a visit, but his work saved us from being part of the stolen generation. We were always in contact with community."
💭 Monday Mantra, TPCH Cardiac patient Clive, a proud Yorta Yorta man.
If you`re being admitted to TPCH, one of the first friendly faces you`re likely to meet is Michelle! 🎉😍
Michelle has supported patients at the Prince Charles Hospital for 40 years, joining the team fresh out of high school.
She spent time in a number of Units including X-ray, the Ellen Barron Centre, Admissions, and the ED, and has spent the last 25 years in Pre-Admissions, where patients come in for Orthopaedic, General Surgery or Cardiology procedures.
"I have had a lot of “thank you, great work”, “love your smile” and "God Bless you” in my time, and the occasional knitted teddy bear or tea towels," she said, reflecting on her experiences with patients.
"Prince Charles holds a special place in my heart because it was here that I met my late husband, and now years later, our son works here too.
"One day I will retire and relax, babysit, throw in a couple of cruises and look back on my time at Prince Charles with fond memories, life-long friends and a lot of tea towels!"
👏 Shoutout Saturday to one of our long-serving friendly faces, Michelle. 🚢💐
The team at TPCH are getting to the root of dental health problems for our eligible patients! 🦷
A new TPCH Dental Clinic is now open for current inpatients who may have an urgent dental need that are impacting on their medical treatment whilst at TPCH.
One of our main cohorts are cardiac patients who may require sudden heart valve surgery and must be deemed `dentally fit` before their treatment.
Dr Arnella and Dental Assistant Yuki share why it is important for our cardiac patients to be seen on site before surgery.
“We want to ensure there’s no active infection in the mouth that can go into the bloodstream and affect the new heart valves,” Dr Arnella said.
“Getting patients off campus for treatment is a complicated process, logistically it’s a lot safer to stay on site.”
