Our hospitals don't work without our operational services teams, with Minor Works Coordinator Peter just one of the many behind-the-scenes champions keeping everything running smoothly.
Peter is based at our Brighton Health Campus, where he thinks outside the box to improve the patient experience - looking at everything from trialling new air purifying technology to digital hospital upgrades. 🛠️
“At Community and Oral Health, some of our facilities are located closer to the coast and this may cause extra maintenance and repair issues due to the salt air," Peter said.
“It is critical that we focus on the longevity of equipment and items, and maintain, repair and fix problems for sustainability over the longer term.”
👏 #ShoutoutSaturday to Peter and all of our operational services staff at Metro North who make healthcare possible.
