Waste Officer Al coordinates the collection, handling and disposal of waste across Redcliffe Hospital and has been doing so for 20 years!
"I was a 'wardie', started that 32 years ago here at Redcliffe and then this opportunity came up to do waste and I've been doing that ever since," Al said.
"I cover all of the waste across the hospital so general waste, clinical waste, toxic waste and recycling.
"I've seen lots of changes to the hospital over the years, but I'll definitely stay in this role now, wouldn't want to change it."
👏A big #ShoutoutSaturday to Al and the waste management team across all of our Metro North facilities.

"I was a 'sparky' until my leg had to be chopped off, now I'm just doing the best I can to keep as many limbs on me as possible. I had an injury on the side of my foot which became pretty bad and I had to have my leg amputated. I help care for a 97-year-old and a 72-year-old, doing the cooking, cleaning, their groceries, all of that. I've got a good crew here looking after me at the moment which is great."
