Pharmacy Director Tim Dunn received a mayday call from our friends at Longreach last Friday, flagging a critical shortfall in their pharmacy workforce due to COVID-19.<\/h4>\n

One of our Senior Pharmacists, Belinda Chappell, generously agreed to fly out the next morning to provide help for a few weeks. Here she is at Longreach Hospital this week.<\/p>\n

\"Belinda<\/p>\n

Thanks, Tim, for generously offering our help, thanks Belinda for helping and representing us so well.<\/p>\n

Compliments\u00a0<\/span><\/b>\u2026 take a skim of this, <\/b>it\u2019s why we choose to do what we do:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe hospital provided me with a holistic care. I came there with a pain and operation was done to relieve me of the pain.<\/i><\/p>\n

\u201cThe procedure was explained, the transfer was great and care postoperatively in the ward was excellent. <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\u201cOverall, everyone in the hospital provided me with the best service and care a patient could ever ask for. <\/i><\/p>\n

\u201cI am grateful to the whole Caboolture Hospital team and may they continue to provide excellent service.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n

Flu vaccinations<\/strong> \u2026 due to start at the end of April.<\/p>\n

Busy?<\/strong> \u2026 oh yeah, the amount of care being provided is breaking all sorts of records. This is a season you will remember for the rest of your lives, we are working in a memorable season.<\/p>\n

Stay calm, slow COVID, keep compassion at the front of your minds and look after each other.<\/p>\n
