Hawks AFLW stars swooped in for a surprise visit to Monash Children’s Hospital 🤎💛

Our young patients got a kick out of meeting Hawthorn AFLW superstars Eliza West and Casey Sherriff.

The talented pair from Hawthorn Football Club happily signed autographs, gifted Hawks merchandise and took lots of selfies with footy fans.

Special visits like this through the Monash Health Foundation mean so much for our young patients, their families, and our care teams.

A big thank you to the Hawks for bringing the smiles and brightening everyone’s day. 🥰

Anaesthetist Doctor Brendan Ingram’s career in medicine began with something simple: curiosity ✨

For 35 years, patients have been at the heart of why Brendan works in public health.

From establishing a cardiac service to helping develop Victoria’s largest anaesthetic training program – Brendan's contributions are countless!

💬 'When I first started, there were only 4 staff anaesthetists, now there are over 200,’ he says.

Transitioning to retirement, Brendan is ready to swap his scrubs for a fishing rod 🎣for a slower paced lifestyle.

Thank you, Brendan, for 35 years of dedication, leadership and compassionate care! 💙👏

Meet Beth Graham, Medical Scientist in Pathology at Monash Medical Centre.

For 45 years, she’s been looking down the microscope, reading blood films. 👩🏻‍🔬

This month, we celebrate the amazing contributions of our longer-serving employees at our annual Length of Service Awards. We are proud to share some of their stories with you.

Having seen the rarest of diseases through her lens, Beth has a keen eye for abnormal findings. 🔬

‘With Morphology, it's like having an atlas in your brain of normal cells and picking up early-stage changes.’ 🧠

Beth’s love affair with hospitals and biology started way back in the late 60’s.

Computerisation and automation have helped with efficiency, but the work is still as exciting. 🖥

Beth is transitioning to retirement, but her love for science isn’t retiring anytime soon.

She is passionate about reptiles and breeds Alpine Blue-tongue lizards as a hobby! 🦎

‘It's still biology and science!’ 🗨️

Our heartiest congratulations, Beth Graham, on receiving a 2026 Length of Service Award.

Your work and dedication are unmatched – thank you! 🎉💙

Monash Health has become the first health service in Australia to use a groundbreaking scanner in breast cancer surgery.

📺 As reported by 7News, a trial of the Histolog Scanner in breast conserving surgery at Moorabbin Hospital is having promising results, increasing accuracy, reducing repeat operations and fast-tracking recovery.

The new technology allows doctors to see if more breast tissue needs to be removed in real time during surgery, turning a 2-to-3-week process into 15 minutes. 🕚

This could halve the number of patients needing a second surgery.

'This new technology at Monash Health is very promising for breast cancer surgery. It could offer better outcomes for patients undergoing lumpectomy by reducing the risk of re-operation, improving the mental and physical stress of repeat operations,' said Dr Corinne Ooi, Head of Breast Services.
