As the holiday season ramps up, Caboolture security guards Vic and Corey are the elves behind the scenes keeping everyone safe! ❤️
For some, Christmas and the holiday period can see increased use of alcohol and drugs and we find we have a lot more patients presenting to hospital, often in a distressed state.
"Effective communication is key, we try to empathise and assist everybody in a safe way - patient safety is paramount," Vic said.
"We do things differently here, we want to be seen as approachable and non-intimidating, don’t be afraid of the blue shirts." ✨
