Thank you to those who came along to talk to me and Jane Hancock.<\/h4>\n<h3>Vale Stuart Pegg AM<\/h3>\n<p>We received the sad news this week that Emeritus Professor Stuart Pegg AM has passed away. Prof Pegg was well known at RBWH as the former Director of Surgery and a pioneer in burns care. The adult burns service is named in his honour and he was a regular presence at the hospital even in recent years. His legacy includes advocating for multidisciplinary care teams for burns treatment. I offer my condolences to Professor Pegg\u2019s family and friends.<\/p>\n<h3>Staff wellbeing<\/h3>\n<p>Metro North has a strong program of staff wellbeing support which includes our staff psychology service, the peer responders and RUOKers, the employee assistance program, and equity information officers. It\u2019s vitally important that we check in on the wellbeing of our colleagues and teams, especially during distressing or challenging times, and take advantage of these support services. More information about these services is available on the <a href=\"https:\/\/comms.health.qld.gov.au\/ch\/92002\/mqk8n\/6905\/DBJ4JAEI_V5ZcXqg2rDH92BnwxYqR1Z.zi040GHa.html\">staff wellbeing extranet<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Global Public Health Week<\/h3>\n<p>This week is <a href=\"https:\/\/comms.health.qld.gov.au\/ch\/92002\/mqk8n\/6906\/DBJ4JAEI_V5ZcXqg2rDHDoeN0qc6eA7pCr.SK07h.html\">Global Public Health Week<\/a>, acknowledging the importance of public health as the \u2018invisible guardians\u2019 of our health.

The dashboard has been developed by the Health Services Strategy and Planning Unit in partnership with Metro North Health Funding and Data Insights<strong>. <\/strong>The dashboard is a \u2018one stop shop\u2019 for reporting on Metro North Strategic Plan, Operational Plans and other strategies and plans including, but not limited to, MN32 and the Health Service Strategy 2021-26.<\/p>\n<p>The Integrated Planning Portal and Dashboard is being trialled with the first six-monthly report for our Metro North Health Equity Strategy 2022-25 before being rolled out for reporting across other plans and strategies.
