When Tropical Cyclone Alfred hit, Brendan and the team at the Brighton Health Campus stepped up to keep things running, ensuring patients and staff had the essentials they needed.

When the weather and road conditions made linen deliveries uncertain, Brendan didn’t hesitate to take action.

“We had no linen trolleys, so I spoke to Gary, and I told them, I’ll do it! Not a problem, let's go!" Brendan said.

With weather conditions worsening, his quick thinking ensured fresh linen was delivered. But not only did he deliver fresh linen, but he also took back the dirty linen to help ease the workload for the team.

“It was good to see everyone come together and get it done."

Thank you Brendan and everyone at the Brighton Health Campus for going above and beyond! 👏

When Tropical Cyclone Alfred hit, the Brighton Health Campus Gardens and Maintenance team sprang into action. 🌪️

Preparation started days before landfall, with the team deploying over 1000 sandbags. Plumbers, electricians, carpenters and plasterers all pitched in to secure the site.

“It was all hands on deck and it was just brilliant,” Ron said.

With his SES experience, Ron helped coordinate the effort, ensuring everything ran smoothly.
The storm uprooted five to seven trees, closing off key areas of the site. 

“We’re just trying to keep things tidy and get rid of hazards so everyone can get to work,” Josh said.

In just 1.5 days, the site was cleared and safe for staff and patients. Fallen trees were recycled into mulch and sand used to fill dips around campus.

A huge thank you to Ron, Josh and the entire crew for your amazing work in the aftermath of Cyclone Alfred. 🙌
