Our brand new Intensive Care Unit is now complete and will begin accepting patients from Monday November 9.

The relocation of this existing service strengthens our critical care capability, supports the growth and development of our services, and ensures that our infrastructure keeps pace with the needs of our patients and the community we serve here at St George Private Hospital.

Our cardiac team recently performed one of the first LuX-Valve procedures in Australia, designed to treat severe tricuspid regurgitation (leaky heart valve) without open-heart surgery.

The procedure was performed by cardiologist Dr Kaleab Asrress and his team, and involves implanting a new tricuspid valve through a minimally invasive approach.

Dr Asrress says this new approach can be beneficial for patients who are too high-risk for open-heart surgery and unsuitable for existing keyhole repairs.

“Severe tricuspid regurgitation has long been an under-treated condition. Technologies like the LuX-Valve are opening up a new option for high-risk patients, and we’re proud to be among the first in NSW to offer it.”

A big congratulations to the team on this achievement!

Thank you to Professor De Backer for this valuable opportunity to learn, share expertise and support ongoing excellence in patient care.

We're excited to be celebrating CHAMPS Day, recognising the incredible contributions of our non-clinical teams here at St George Private Hospital!

From administration, catering and environmental services to maintenance, patient services, supply, finance, reception and more, our hospital could not operate smoothly without these dedicated teams.

We're coming together for a lunch on August 26, where we will acknowledge team members celebrating significant service milestones, such as our Security Manager Ali, who is being recognised for 25 years of service to our hospital.

"It’s been an honour taking care of our patients, visitors and staff," he said, "and I look forward to continuing this throughout the next 25 years!”

Thank you to all our CHAMPS - we couldn't do it without you!

The funds go to Children's Medical Research Institute, an organisation dedicated to finding treatments and cures for kids with birth defects or genetic disease.

This month, we recognised and celebrated the retirement of Margaret Troy, marking the conclusion of an extraordinary healthcare career spanning almost 40 years with Ramsay Health Care and an incredible 50 years in nursing.

Known affectionately to colleagues as Marg, she has been a familiar and respected presence at our hospital for decades. Her contribution has extended far beyond the bedside, helping to shape the culture, professionalism and sense of community that continues to define St George Private Hospital today.

As Marg embarks on a well-earned retirement, the St George Private Hospital community extends its sincere thanks for her outstanding contribution and unwavering commitment to caring for others. Her influence will continue to be felt long after her final shift and she leaves with the gratitude, respect and admiration of all who have had the privilege of working alongside her.

Thank you, Marg, for your extraordinary contribution to our hospital and to the nursing profession. We wish you every happiness in the next chapter of your journey.
