I’m happy to report that Metro North concluded Financial Year 2021-22 with a small surplus. This positive result occurred due to the hard work and dedication of staff both clinical and non-clinical working through another year of challenges relating to our operating environment which was impacted by significant changes in activity levels from the tiered response to the pandemic, cost escalations and revenue disruption.
As a Hospital and Health Service we collect and use huge amounts of personal information every day.
As I’ve been preparing to finish up with Metro North, I’ve been reflecting on my time here over the past four years.
It was a pleasure to attend the Corporate Symposium this week and see so many people enjoying the day. The symposium provided an overview of some of Metro North’s bodies of work including an update from Kate Copeland, ED Assets and Infrastructure, on major development.
A quick update on our management team. Cameron Abbott, our General Manager of Health Funding and Data Insights, is finishing up with Metro North today to take up an opportunity in the private sector. Michelle Marshman will act in the role for the next few weeks while the temporary EOI process is completed.
Our Metro North Corporate Symposium will be held on Wednesday 20 October. It’s an opportunity for staff in non-clinical roles and corporate roles to come together for professional development and to hear about what’s happening across the organisation.
Our annual Corporate Symposium is an opportunity for staff in corporate roles across Metro North to come together to connect.
