🏆💚 PROUD OF OUR WIDER PRACTICE FAMILY 💚🏆

We are incredibly proud to celebrate this wonderful achievement by one of our sister practices Beaconsfield Family Medical Practice— being named the WINNER of the 2026 CareSuper Business Excellence Award for Excellence in Education and Training. 🎓🩺

Although this recognition belongs to one practice, the achievement is something our entire practice family can be proud of. Across all our locations, we share the same commitment to teaching, mentoring and supporting the next generation of doctors, nurses and healthcare professionals.

Every healthcare professional we help train today has the potential to care for thousands of patients throughout their career. By investing in education, we are investing in stronger healthcare services and a healthier future for our communities. ❤️🌱

Congratulations to all the doctors, nurses, supervisors, managers and staff whose dedication made this achievement possible. Your work extends far beyond our clinic walls and creates a lasting impact across the communities we serve.

A proud moment for our whole team and another reminder of what we can achieve when we grow, teach and serve our communities together. 💚🩺❤️

A heartfelt congratulations also to Beaconsfield House🏆 for winning the Building Exceptional Communities Award. Their dedication and service to our local community is truly inspiring and very deserving of this recognition. 💚👏

We also extend our sincere thanks to the Launceston Chamber of Commerce for recognising and celebrating the importance of education, training and healthcare in our community. We greatly appreciate the work the Chamber does in bringing local businesses and organisations together and supporting those working to make a positive difference across our region. 💚
