Glynis Schultz, A\/Executive Director, Community and Oral Health<\/p><\/div>\n

We have been planning for more severe weather over the next 24 hours which may have potential for impact on our home visiting and broader services due to potential road closures.<\/h4>\n

As per yesterday\u2019s Incident Controller message I ask that all staff stay safe and continue to monitor the situation as conditions may change rapidly over the coming days.<\/p>\n

Non-essential meetings and training should be postponed.<\/p>\n

Please keep an eye on updates from authorities and warnings from\u00a0the\u00a0Bureau of Meterology<\/a>. BOM also has an app (called BOM Weather) which provides accurate up-to-date information.\u00a0Keep an eye on the\u00a0Moreton Bay Regional Council<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Brisbane City Council<\/a>\u00a0websites.<\/p>\n

Please continue to do your day-to-day risk assessments and contact your line manager if you have any doubts or concerns.<\/p>\n

Given the exceptional efforts and lessons learnt from last weekend I have no doubt that as a team we will again pull through any issues if they arise.<\/p>\n

Some important things missed<\/h3>\n

Congratulations to our recent Metro North Health Australia Day Awards recipients, with over 50 nominees, our Community and Oral Health winners are more than deserving of the recognition.<\/p>\n
