Dr Simon Bugden
Acting Executive Director
Caboolture, Kilcoy & Woodford Clinical Directorate<\/p><\/div>\n

Many of you are working really hard, we are in a tough season. Thanks for all that you are doing to provide healthcare for our community.<\/h4>\n

\"Sunrise<\/p>\n

After night, the sunrise will come. After winter, spring will arrive. We will get through this season.<\/p>\n

Right now we are recruiting 50 new staff to help us. In 7 \u00bd weeks, we will have 12 more bed spaces.<\/p>\n

In a year\u2019s time, over 300 more staff will be helping us and we will be in a shiny new building with much more space.<\/p>\n

This morning I went for a walk in the cold \u2026 then the sun came up. Our current season feels cold, it\u2019s just before sunrise \u2026 hold on and look for sunlight, it is coming.<\/p>\n

You are making a difference<\/h2>\n

\u201cMy husband has dementia, the special team went beyond to be caring, walking with him daily, playing games and talking normally with him. Sooooo Impressed!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThe surgical nurse made me feel relaxed and helped me calm down after a panic attack.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThe nurses were kind, attentive and informative.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThe medics were awesome.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The lady at the front is the best.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThe audiologist was great with my four year old.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThank-you CPAS \u2026 I was really scared, you reassured me.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThe midwife supported me always.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Thanks for what you are doing, making a difference in people\u2019s lives.<\/p>\n
