This week, Scott from RBWH Food Services and Indigenous Health Liaison Officer (IHLO) Bernadette have been bringing traditional flavours to those spending NAIDOC Week in hospital. 💝
Metro North's IHLOs help bridge the gap between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and healthcare services to help them navigate the hospital system and treatment.
As part of the hospital’s NAIDOC Week celebrations, Scott baked wattleseed biscuits before joining Bernadette and others to deliver them to patients, including Claudine from Toomelah, near Goondiwindi.
Wattleseed is a traditional Aboriginal ingredient that has been used as a source of protein, fibre and carbohydrates for thousands of years.
Claudine and other patients appreciated the thought behind combining the traditional food into a mid-morning treat to celebrate NAIDOC Week.

Happy NADOC week to all.

The new ride-on mowers at RBWH are a cut above the rest at keeping campus gardens looking their best. 🏡💚
The Metro North Environment and Waste Team recently received new electric mowers for use at RBWH and Rosemount campuses, replacing the older fuel-powered models.
RBWH Gardens Coordinator Brad, pictured with gardener, Alex has been enjoying the benefits.
"The new mowers are quieter and don't produce exhaust fumes, so we can use them closer to patients, staff and visitors," Brad said.
"The electric model is also more sustainable, which means they're better for the planet, while providing a much better user experience for the operator."
Awesome 👌
Well done team
Sounds great. Unfortunately the cost is also ridiculously high and given the hundreds of thousands of cars passing RBWH the reduction of one lawnmower won’t make much difference to air quality or noise.
