Sunshine, sea-breeze and beautifully maintained gardens are just a few things you'll find at the Brighton Health Campus. 🌊🌴
One of the gardeners keeping the grounds in tip-top shape is Rob who says working out at Brighton has revived his passion in horticulture.
"I was at TPCH for 7 years, but this came up last July and I jumped at the chance, just to get your eyes on a new place and have a new challenge. I also get to pat multiple dogs every day between work," said Rob.
"I love anything to do with gardening; at the moment we are mulching which is laborious but it's the gratification of knowing what you’re going to achieve when it's done.
"The best type of gardens are ones where you don’t really notice a change, put me in the garden and I'm a happy camper!"
👏 A big #ShoutoutSaturday to Rob and all of our gardeners across Metro North! 🧑🌾🪴
Rob has been a welcome addition at Brighton, not only is he an excellent gardener which shows in the ground surrounding the campus, but he is always ready with a friendly smile and hello to everyone he meets.
What a wonderful gardener , always happy to share his knowledge too. Our gardens are looking fabulous
We miss you at TPCH Rob but so glad you are enjoying the beautiful Brighton campus
I love a well kept garden
Nice work Rob! We miss you at Charlies!
Well done Rob.
Rob you have been a welcome addition to the grounds team. Thank you for always enthusiastically approaching your job at hand. Campus Visitors and Residents alike have commented on the gardens your, efforts have not gone unnoticed
I was wondering where you got to!!
Rob always has a friendly hello as he goes about making Brighton Health Campus beautiful!
We miss having you at TPCH Rob, Brighton will be in good hands !
Well done Rob. Love all the effort that has gone into Brighton Health Campus, just uplifting.
Awesome Rob!! Is someone feeding Ian?
Almost 10,000 surgeries are performed every year at TPCH but none of these would be possible without a team of highly trained anaesthetists. 💉😴
Dr Andrei who is originally from Russia has spent the last year at TPCH as a Staff Specialist in Anaesthetics.
"I've practiced in Russia, South Africa, now Australia, it’s very interesting to travel through different countries and systems, seeing environments I thought I'd never see in my life. I think I became a better anaesthetist due to the [Australian] training," said Dr Andrei.
"I prefer to work in orthopaedics and trauma, and this is a smaller hospital which is not as busy as the RBWH for example so it's a smaller department and I recognise and get to know people, there's lots of support.
"Although I am on general side of anaesthetics, I am attracted to the cardiac specialty and working in the cardiac centre is very interesting, the cardiac team has a lot of experience." 🫀

Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to formally request information regarding the options available to restrict, seal, or, where legally permissible, delete my Queensland Health records. My confidence in Queensland Health's ability to manage my personal information appropriately has been severely damaged by my experiences with the organisation and what I perceive to be unethical conduct. As a result, I no longer feel safe having my personal health information accessible within Queensland Health systems beyond what is legally required. I therefore request written advice regarding: Whether my records can be sealed, restricted, or otherwise protected from routine access. Whether additional privacy protections can be applied to my records. Whether audit monitoring can be applied to record access. Whether I can obtain access logs showing who has accessed my records. Whether any part of my records can be deleted, archived, or removed in accordance with applicable legislation and record-retention requirements. The formal process for requesting any of the above measures. My intention is to minimise the risk of future misuse, inappropriate access, disclosure, or use of my personal information in ways that may adversely affect my safety, wellbeing, or access to care. Given the seriousness of my concerns, I would also appreciate advice regarding any mechanisms available to protect individuals who have lost confidence in the organisation's handling of their personal information and who believe further access or use of that information may place them at risk of harm or intimidation. Please provide your response in writing. Kind regards,
What do you do to ensure you do not remove medical care from people with a disability and threaten them with violence if they ask questions. I mean you do follow @Queensland Health policies on bashing disabled people right? Metro North Health @Metro South Health. Ohh they are no longer accepting public scrutiny I see. Wow QUeensland Health really are a pack of unethical cowards.
TPCH is a place no one wish to be admitted. Failed hospital

Manager of TPCH Library Services Jana oversees thousands of physical and digital resources that support our medical team to make decisions every day.
"I had no idea that medical libraries even existed but it’s a great opportunity to have an impact on patient and research outcomes," said Jana.
"We have a lot of wonderful connections with the clinical staff. Most of our job is finding evidence to support patient care decisions, looking at research and also training and education."
"We also maintain spaces like the library for people to escape the hustle and bustle of the hospital, we have a real focus on wellbeing."

Memory changes can be difficult and emotional, impacting not only the individual but also the people closest to them. Our TPCH Memory Clinic is here to help, supporting those experiencing changes in memory. 🧠
Specialists in Geriatric Medicine Dr Benignus and Dr Sarah are part of the team tackling growing dementia rates across Australia, with early assessment of memory issues playing an important role.
“Memory issues can present in simple ways like forgetting to attend appointments or pay bills, getting lost, changes with language, difficulty finding words, or repeating things,” Dr Benignus said.
“Memory issues are not always due to dementia and might be the result of other factors such as mental health, mood, sleep and medications—all of which can affect the brain’s function.
“That’s why early assessment is critical, as it allows people and their families to understand what is happening and plan ahead accordingly, especially if there is a clear diagnosis of early onset dementia."
Lucky to have you at TPCH!
Thank you for your dedication and care for our community Sarah and Benignus- such a privilege to have you on our team!💫💯
Outstanding team across the whole of memory clinic and geriatrics. 💖
Wonderful doctors.🥰
Amazing drs! ❤️
Thank you for your care.
Amazing Doctors and their patients are very lucky
Proud of you mate, and all the hard work you and your colleagues do x
