Adult Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation ECMO Course 2025

This 4-day course will enable multidisciplinary teams with little ECMO experience to provide ECMO for patients with severe cardiac and respiratory failure.
Masks are an important defence against respiratory illness and protection from dust and other airborne hazards.

Spring might have sprung, but Director of Emergency Services at Redcliffe Hospital Dr Alan Yan said the hospital is still seeing lots of patients, including many for respiratory illnesses common in winter. 🌼
With our ED doors always open, it is worth remembering that some of our other emergency care options might work better for lower acuity needs - including our Virtual Emergency Care Service and Satellite Health Centres.
“We are facing higher than usual demands due to respiratory illnesses and a higher presentation of our frail community members," he said.
“If you are needing emergency care, we will always be here for you, but please consider some alternatives if you have minor or non-urgent health concerns.”

We are so lucky that our wonderful doctors and nurses are there for us. Could never do that kind of work.
Great job, your dedication to emergency services is truly inspiring, you and your team are making a difference🥰
I'd like to give thanks to the ladies in transit lounge an the staff at oncology department level 4 wasn't easy to go back there, many thanks, don't just get thu the day smile 😁 thu an boost morale, keep kicking goals, special thanks to Ingrid an Sharon
It is essential to prioritize the well-being of hospital staff when they are unwell. By doing so, we can facilitate their recovery and ensure they return to work as soon as possible.
So frustrating for the staff I imagine. They (patients) carry on about wait times they’re only long because much effort is directed to people that could be seen elsewhere.
You for a great job
Thank you Dr Yan!
I've had the unfortunate privilege of accompanying two relatives into Redcliffe Emergency with fractures, including one your team urgently checked a potential head injury in addition to the broken bones. In both cases, your team were very diligent, efficient and kind. Thank you!
In other words, 'go find a GP' for your petty or non-urgent stuff. One picky-bit. Run these sorts of things past a non-medical person first. Would every tradie or Old Fart or teenager or immigrant know the meaning of stuff like "lower acuity needs"?
You’re doing a great job there Al. What a Legend. One of the best I have worked with at PAH ED. Well done Doc👏👏

Following a recent visit, I can't speak highly enough of the professionalism of the ED staff. Despite cuts and shortages their person commitments and patient-focus remain.👍

i just got rid of my Thyroid disease, Alot of people are still suffering from this disease because of what the medical doctors say when they found out you have Thyroid disease (there is no complete cure for Thyroid) which is not true I was cured by 👇👇👇👇👇 Doctor Williams
The administration of the Emergency Department needs a review and whilst the staff continue to work against the odds, the Directive issued by the Minister re funding to be cut if a patient stays longer than 24 hours in the department remains extremely questionable. I also note that there's a new Director of Medcine but overall, the Hospital Boards structure (State wide) needs to be reviews.
thank you so much, after taking your medication🌿 for one week as you said the Herpes was eliminate, am really grateful 💯 👇👇👇 Doctor Williams
A new FibroScan tool for patients at Redcliffe Hospital is making it easier to assess liver health, with CNC Phoebe playing a key role in securing the technology. 🫶
"The FibroScan machine provides immediate information about both liver stiffness and fat content to the specialists and patients on the day of their appointment," Phoebe shared.
"It tells us what the liver ‘feels’ like, whereas radiology imaging only shows what the liver ‘looks’ like. This helps us to treat patients by indicating any scarring or advanced fibrosis, among other conditions."
Phoebe is part of the team at Redcliffe Hospital, focusing primarily on early diagnosis of liver disease. She continues on her quest to be a part of the global goal to eliminate hepatitis C as a threat by 2030. 💖
#ShoutoutSaturday to Phoebe and her dedication to hepatology at Redcliffe Hospital.
Great work, Phoebe
👍
Wow .. so Dr Julian de Looze, Clinical Director of the Royal Brisbane and Wimens Hospital owns a gay US strip club run by a man who is one of the country’s worst rapists. Even after he was convicted Dr de Looze texted the criminal in jail . And did nothing about when women make complaints to his company. GREAT JOB on keeping a misogynist and enabler as a Dr at our Women’s Hospital ! Disgusting
