At Cura Day Hospitals Group, we acknowledge this year’s theme and its focus on strength, connection and cultural continuity, aligned with our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander (ATSI) Patient Care Guidelines and our commitment to culturally safe, respectful and person-centred care.

It reminds us of the importance of listening, learning and embedding culturally capable practices that recognise the holistic nature of health, including connection to Country, family and community.

Today, Cura Day Hospitals Group recognises World Hand Hygiene Day, reaffirming our shared commitment to patient safety through simple and effective hand hygiene practices.

This commitment is reinforced through our ongoing Rub In, Rub Out (RIRO) initiative, reminding our teams that clean hands help save lives by preventing the spread of infection through correct hand hygiene.

Consistently following best practice hand hygiene is one of the most effective frontline measures to protect our patients, our colleagues and ourselves from infection.

This Falls Awareness Month, we’re raising awareness about falls prevention and supporting those at risk.

After surgery or a procedure, falls can happen more easily due to factors like:
🔹 Poor balance & low blood pressure
🔹 Medications that cause dizziness
🔹 Inactivity during recovery

It’s important to stay safe both in hospital and at home. Simple fall prevention tips, like staying active and creating a safe environment, can help reduce falls and prevent injuries.
