More than 200 patients come through the Caboolture Hospital ED every single day, requiring a monumental effort from our staff.
Assistant in Nursing and Peer Responder Scott wanted to bring some joy to his peers in the busy department, so he created Wally the Wellness Trolley - a cart stocked full of snacks, paired with smiles and support.
“We’re busier than ever, so important our team feels supported so we can continue providing great care,” Scott said.
"One of the great heroes of my life is Hunter 'Patch' Adams who was played by the late, great Robin Williams - that is the basis behind Wally."
The initiative is entirely funded and restocked by staff and is quickly becoming a simple and effective way to keep everyone smiling! 😃

Caboolture Hospital has a new Neonatal Unit, which is now caring for babies like Stella from this week!
The larger, more modern 15-bed unit has been a welcome home away from home for Mum Carla, who is juggling spending time with Stella as well as her three sons and husband at home. 🏡
Stella spent four weeks in the Mater before being transferred to the new Caboolture Hospital Neonatal Unit yesterday, which was a welcome change for the whole family who live closer to the area.
"Being closer to home has meant a lot – I’ve got three boys at home as well so being back with them has been great, and the new unit is stunning where you also have your own privacy," Carla said. 💕
Yay, about time! We were in there 4 months ago with our baby boy, wishing they'd hurry up and open this new unit. I had 3 of my kids in the old unit. Congratulations to all the new mums and bubs and wish you loads of strength as you will need it 💗
Woohoo finally open! The nurses there are absolutely amazing, so grateful for them.
