The plan for reopening Queensland's borders is out and we're so excited to see families and friends reunite in the coming months. The first step to making this possible is to get your first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. 💉💪
RN Mia has been part of the COVID-19 response since the beginning and has started to feel a little more at ease after seeing Queensland's vaccination rates climb. 📈
"I've worked in hotel quarantine which I really loved, I've also performed testing at fever clinics and now am working across a few vaccinations hubs," Mia said.
"It's been rewarding working through each sort of phase of the pandemic, I feel like we really are on the road to recovery right now!"

Meet Nick 👋 👷♂️💡 It takes more than doctors and nurses to keep a hospital running and electricians like Nick are just part of our huge team.
Nick is about to celebrate his one-year anniversary here at the #Herston campus and loves working to keep the lights on for both #RBWH, #STARS and the many other buildings we have here. 🔦
“I love working here, it’s a really fun and enjoyable place to work,” he said.
“There's a huge variety of work available, especially when it's such a large campus, I definitely don’t get bored.
“As a relatively new tradesman I'm learning lots from the older boys who have a lot more experience and have been here a lot longer than me.”
For almost ten years #RBWH assistant in nursing Chabane has been busily working behind closed doors to make sure equipment is ready for our surgeries. He works in the Clinical Consumables Group who receive and process equipment, making sure all the right pieces are ready for surgery, before sending it through to the Sterilisation Processing Centre. 📝🏥
Once all the equipment has been sterilised, it gets sent to surgery - counted, cleaned and ready to go!
"Right now in this area there are about 80 trays of equipment - they can include many things like screws, implants, plates and instruments. I have to make sure everything that a surgeon needs to perform a surgery is accounted for on these trays" Chabane said.
Chabane and his colleagues are part of a well-oiled team that keeps surgeries ticking over at #RBWH so join us in giving them a big #ShoutoutSaturday! 🤩
Around 110,000 Australian women suffer a miscarriage every year, 2,200 more endure a stillbirth, and 600 lose their baby in the first 28 days after birth. #RBWH bereavement midwives Natalie (left) and Laura (right) understand how challenging these times are for women and their families. 🕯️💕💫
"Parents experiencing a loss often find that because their friends and families don't know what to say, they say nothing at all," Natalie said.
"It's so important to check in with someone if you know they're going through this. Women tend to feel isolated, lonely and so often blame themselves for what's happened - you can help by talking it through with them and letting them know you're there for support."
Today is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day. If you know someone who has lost a baby or infant, let them know you're thinking of them.
