If you've ever left something behind at Redcliffe hospital, chances are Hospital Volunteer Pamela is keeping it safe until you can be reunited with it. 🧺
Many items like glasses, keys and clothes are being handed in with metal water bottles and phone chargers being some of the most common items awaiting their owner’s return.
“It’s understandable, they’re easy to leave behind. People often sit down at the chairs at the front of the hospital and leave without them,” Pamela said.
“People leave things in other places too – like on the shuttle buggy from the car park.”
Pam reassures anyone who may have left something behind at Redcliffe Hospital that they hold onto the items for a few months, so there is plenty of time to collect them! 👕
Love your warm welcome to Redcliffe Hospital, too ❤️
Great work done by all. Volunteers Continue the great work and was a pleasure to be one of the team recently ❤️
Awww we all love Pam she’s the best 💫
Thankyou to all our volunteers 👏👍👌🫶
Awww Pam great work 🫶🏼
Perfect lady for a good job.
Awesome.. Don’t suppose you have a dark blue Yeti metal water bottle left in ED a from a few months ago? Hubby left it behind 😆
Way to go Pam!
Hi Pam still helping people
Hi Pam, Still doing your bit at Redcliffe Hospital
Hey Pam .. glad your paying it forward.. 🥰
Thank you Pamela! Still making lives better 👍👏🥰
Does the shuttle buggy take you from the car park to the children’s out patient doctors rooms? There is no parking beside the Paediatric out patients anymore, due to the new hospital expansion!
