💙 Celebrarating years of dedication at Maryvale Private Hospital 💙

Vicki’s journey at Maryvale Private Hospital is one to be proud of 👏
Vicki’s time at Maryvale spans many years and reflects a long-standing career within the administration and consulting suite areas. Starting in 2002, she worked across a variety of roles, including reception, consulting suites, ward clerk and medical records.

Back when Vicki first started, things looked very different - there weren’t even computers in the consulting suites, with appointments managed through handwritten books! It’s safe to say she has seen a lot of change over the years!

Over her time at Maryvale, Vicki has been well known for:
⭐️ Being a positive team member and supportive colleague
⭐️ Well-regarded by patients and doctors for the service she provided
⭐️ Always willing to step in and assist where needed
⭐️ A familiar and consistent presence within the hospital

Through ongoing development, training, and years of dedication, Vicki played an important role in supporting the hospital’s mission of delivering quality healthcare to the community.

Thank you Vicki, for your time and contribution over the years - wishing you all the best for what comes next 🌸

We are delighted to share that we have reached our latest fundraising milestone. A big thank-you to the incredible generosity of recent donations and bequests from the community.

This achievement has enabled Maryvale Private Hospital to invest in new equipment to deliver Advanced Life Support (ALS) training, led by our dedicated education and training team.

We recently held two simulation training sessions utilising our new iSim system and mannequin. These sessions bought together members of the Anaesthetic and Operating Room nursing teams in a highly engaging and collaborative learning environment (as photographed).

The introduction of this advanced, moderate to high fidelity simulation technology has significantly enhanced our ability to deliver realistic, hands-on training that supports both clinical excellence and team cohesion.

We are incredibly grateful for the generosity of our community 🫶

We loved being part of the Health Industry Day. It was fantastic to see the enthusiasm, curiosity and engagement from all students. Thank you to all that were involved in the day, we enjoyed being apart of it.

Students from Chairo Christian School Drouin, Drouin Secondary College, Lavalla Catholic College, Marist-Sion College and Trafalgar High School recently participated in an immersive Health Industry Day (a component of the recent Health Camp) - gaining valuable firsthand experience across a range of healthcare settings.

The day began in aged care at Baptist Care - Heritage Manor Morwell, where Lifestyle Manager, Katie, introduced students to the many multidisciplinary roles within the sector and the vital role they play in supporting older members of our community. Students enjoyed connecting with residents, including the much-loved 'Juicy Lucy' and 'Hot Dot', whose morning chats were a definite highlight!

The learning journey then continued at Maryvale Private Hospital, where students were welcomed by the Clinical Educator, Sacha and healthcare team, for a hands-on introduction to life in a hospital setting. Students immersed themselves in practical activities including CPR and defibrillator training, infection prevention and control procedures, reading patient charts, and taking blood pressure using the same equipment and technology utilised by healthcare professionals every day.

Blake from Ambulance Victoria formed part of the day's rotations, giving students a unique behind the scenes look inside an operational ambulance. Students examined the specialised equipment used by paramedics, and gained a greater understanding of emergency response and patient care in real-world settings.

Thank-you to our partnering industries for putting on a great day! The students represented their schools with enthusiasm and curiosity, making the most of every opportunity to explore future careers in health.
