"I'm with Nalingu Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Respite playing lawn bowls. I usually come in and play Yukon with the old fellas and have a yarn. We’re all mob, they're part of my community. Been in Bracken Ridge for the last 46 years, originally from Larrakia Darwin and Townsville. My advice is to make your life as stress free as possible, be debt free. We are always chasing the mighty dollar, save it and pay."

If your weekend plans include binging The Pitt, the latest Emmy-winning TV show set in the Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Centre, then you're not alone - even Dr Sean, Director of Emergency at RBWH will be doing so! 🍿

The show is proving popular with the general public and our ED team alike, with many parallels to what our emergency and trauma teams deal with each day. 

Sean reflects on a day in the life for our emergency staff, which can be very busy depending on who needs help.

"One of the reasons people choose to work in emergency is because we don't have a 'normal' day, and no two are ever the same," he says.

"The afternoons and evenings are always buzzing, at RBWH we are the leading trauma centre but also the stroke centre for North Brisbane, and remain busy tending to all the other emergency presentations too.

"An important part of the care we provide is not just treating the patient clinically but keeping the family up to date and supported - and we are all trained to do this, but also have our amazing 24/7 social workers who support loved ones during what can be a difficult time."

#ShoutoutSaturday to our incredible emergency teams, our real-life The Pitt stars! 📺⭐

Gina caught her cancer at Stage 4, and with the help of GynaeOncology Clinical Nurse Consultant Tara and the treating team at RBWH, she’s now in remission, with an important message for all women - know your symptoms and advocate for yourself.
