So well deserved and an inspiration to female clinicians! 👏
Thank you so much Dr Fran. Every Queenslander is no doubt grateful for your wonderful ethos to uneven trauma care throughout the whole State. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🫶🏻☀️
Hopefully the emergency department gets trained on vacuum wound dressing machines. We presented with my daughter and no one knew how to handle the situation. Ended up having to get staff from upstairs departments to assist. If it was nighttime without those staff on I have no idea what would have happened.
Congratulations Fran! Well deserved!
Love Dr. Fran! Always pleased to see her on the board. A true inspiration.
We are so lucky to have such a fabulous colleague in Fran 🥰 congratulations on the new role!!!

The Brisbane Lions youngest fan will be cheering from the RBWH Neonatal Unit today, as he joins Dad Ben and Mum Olivia in the Grand Final celebrations! 🦁
Being born into Lions loyalty, this little cub arrived at 33 weeks and weighed just 1400 grams at birth but is showing his strength and fighting spirit to get home from the NICU as soon as possible.
Olivia said the trio had been spending a lot of time in the NICU since 2 September but were lucky to be surrounded by an awesome team themselves.
"We knew he would be born early as we have been seeing the Maternal Fetal Medicine team here the whole time, and we could not have done this without them," she said.
"It makes it so much nicer to be in the NICU when they make it feel homely - the Brisbane Lions theming has been extra special, especially for Ben who is a die-hard fan!"
Ahhh this little family could take anything life throws at them. I hope the little guy gets to celebrate tonight 🦁
So cute! Go the Lions and good job GSNU!
That’s so cute
This is so good 😍🦁GSNU 🤩
Remember when it looked like this.

"I was diagnosed with diabetes when I was eleven years old, I've since lost my leg and I'm determined not to lose the other. Losing a limb is devastating, it kills your confidence, but I am a very stubborn person, my advice is to anyone going through a hard time is don't give up. I try and stay cheerful, everyone is doing their best to help me. I've been in and out of hospital quite a bit over the last year, I just can't wait to get home to my partner Matthew and tabby cat Filbert."
