Many of you will have seen my email about the conclusion of an investigation into the sexual assault of one our nurses by a patient last year. A summary of the findings and recommendations of this investigation has been released, with the support of the affected staff member, and can be found here. The incident was deeply concerning.
The safety of our staff is one of the most important responsibilities of any employer, including this HHS. On this occasion, our response fell short. We all deserve to be safe at work and the behaviour directed to our staff member on that day has no place in our hospital or anywhere in society. I cannot speak highly enough of the staff member’s courage by agreeing to share her ordeal with investigators to ensure we could improve the workplace for everyone.
I have accepted all four recommendations noting that recommendation three - developing a standalone, health service-wide risk assessment for sexual harassment and sex-and-gender-based harassmenthas been previously delivered to comply with recent changes to work health and safety laws that came into effect in March this year and September last year.
Last weekend I went down to Ayr and Home Hill Health Services to join the Governor, Her Excellency the Honourable Dr Jeanette Young PSM and her husband, Professor Graeme Nimmo, for brief visits through both hospitals. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to join the Governor on her visit to Palm Island on Friday, although our Board member Luke Guazzo was able to be present. There is a lot (funny how such a short word describes so much) of work that
goes on behind the scenes in preparation for a visit from a dignitary, especially a vice-regal visit and I want to thank everyone for their efforts in making this happen. As our former Chief Health Officer, the Governor retains a keen interest in public health facilities so it’s always a privilege when we are chosen for a visit.
A reminder from me about Anzac Day and the dawn service held at Townsville University Hospital’s front garden, starting at 5.50am on Friday, 25 April. This is a special event the Townsville HHS is proud to deliver to honour our defence force personnel past and present. Townsville is a proud garrison city and it is important we are able to hold events like this. The event is open to everyone and will be one of the services held across the city to pay tribute to our soldiers. Again, for those interested in joining the Thuringowa march, please get in touch with JJ here.
We are about to head into public holiday season, well its not really a season but with four of them (and that’s not counting Easter Saturday and Sunday) in the next four weeks it feels like that. For many of you, it’s business as usual because we are 24/7 organisation. To those of you not getting away on breaks because of work commitments, thank you for continuing to deliver care to our community. If you are taking a break and are travelling, please do so safely. I’m sure we have all noticed the change in weather in the last few days, so at least with whatever your plans are, it will be in more enjoyable weather.
Until next time kk
Wishing everyone across the health service a safe and happy Easter!
Whether you’re spending time locally with family, on the road or in the air, be safe and enjoy the holidays.
If you’re working through the holiday, thank you for continuing to provide the best care for all in north Queensland.

Townsville Hospital and Health Service Staff Excellence Awards 2025
Staff encouraged to attend national geriatric emergency medicine conference in Townsville
Leading experts in geriatric emergency medicine will come together in Townsville for GEMSEM25, a national seminar tackling the future of acute and emergency care for older Australians.
Townsville University Hospital emergency department staff specialist and Frailty Intervention Team clinical lead Dr Jane Dutson is leading this year’s event.
Jane said the conference, which is being organised by the Peripheral Hospitals Emergency Medicine Conference (PHEMC) team, would feature a lineup of international keynote speakers, national experts, and local healthcare professionals.
“Townsville is proud to host this important national seminar; it’s a chance to showcase the work we’re doing locally and to hear the latest thinking, research, and real-world strategies from across the country when it comes to older person care,” Jane said.
“This is about sharing ideas, improving care, and keeping older Australians at the centre of our decision-making in healthcare.
“The event will explore critical themes including trauma management for older people, advance care planning, disaster response, and best practice-care for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.”
Jane said GEMSEM25 was open to all healthcare professionals involved in older person care.
“I encourage doctors, nurses, allied health professionals, GPs, aged care staff, QAS personnel and healthcare leaders to come along to this conference and be a part of something special,” she said.
“This event is not just about clinical skills; it’s about rethinking how we as healthcare professionals respond to aging.”
The seminar will also feature a workshop delivered by the Australian Indigenous Doctors’ Association (AIDA).
“We are all aging, and as we get older, medical issues become more complex, but events like GEMSEM25 help us to provide the best care possible for older people, with the aim of reducing pressure on the system and improving health outcomes for everyone,” Jane said.
GEMSEM25 will take place at The Ville on Friday 2 May.

Celebrating excellence in nursing and midwifery
International Nurses Day and International Day of the Midwife are just around the corner and teams are invited to join in celebrating our nursing and midwifery teams on Thursday 8 May 2025 in the Robert Douglas Auditorium.
Executive director nursing and midwifery services Judy Morton said the event was just one opportunity to acknowledge the dedication of our staff, with awards in several categories to be announced on the day.
“Our nurses and midwives are the backbone of our healthcare system,” Judy said.
“This event is a celebration of their commitment and an opportunity for us to express our gratitude.
“I encourage everyone to attend to support your fellow colleagues and be part of the celebration.”
In 2024 the planned procedure unit (PPU) and surgical clinical decision unit (SCDU) were among the standout winners, taking home team of the year, consumer team of the year, and the JCU student award for outstanding contribution to student learning.
PPU and SCDU nurse unit manager Samantha Johnston said last year’s win was a huge moment of pride for her team as they received validation and credit for their hard work.
“The awards are a chance to bring back some positive energy to share with your coworkers,” Samatha said.
“Whether you win or not, it’s important to celebrate and acknowledge the efforts of your team and I think everyone should along to the event.
“Following our wins we celebrated with lunches and catch-ups to acknowledge everyone’s hard work.
“The event is really a reminder of the impact that nurses and midwives have on patients and the community.”
A Microsoft teams link will be made available for all staff who are unable to attend in person.

Townsville local fills executive director role
Tom Hegarty knows he has big shoes to fill as the new executive director of infrastructure program delivery at Townsville Hospital and Health Service.
The born-and-bred Townsville man has taken over the role from Stuart Garantziotis.
Having grown up in the region, Tom said he understood the importance of healthcare in north Queensland.
“I am very excited to be joining the Townsville HHS and to have the opportunity to improve healthcare delivery in the region further,” Tom said.
“As someone who’s been part of the community for my whole life—with parents, grandparents, and kids who have all had experiences with the hospital—it means a lot to be involved in shaping what comes next.
“It’s a real privilege and I am looking forward to the rewarding challenge the role will bring.”
Tom is no stranger to healthcare infrastructure with some of his previous roles seeing him deliver health capital projects across the Townsville region.
“My background is in finance and construction, which makes this role a perfect fit,” he said.
“There’s a lot of passion in healthcare, which comes through in the team.
“Some of the planned infrastructure projects in the pipeline are legacy projects, and I take pride in being part of a team that is helping to build this important infrastructure which will underpin healthcare service in north Queensland.”
As for Stuart, while he said there have been some challenges over the past couple of years there had also been a lot of achievements.
“It was great to help deliver projects like the expansion of the outpatients department as well as the upcoming hybrid operating theatre,” Stuart said.
“Planning is well advanced for the hospital expansion project and multi-level carpark at Townsville University Hospital which will hopefully be confirmed shortly.
“It’s been rewarding to see these projects progress.”
Stuart is moving with his family to southeast Queensland but said he was grateful for all the support he had received during his two years in the role.
“I just want to thank the executive leadership team, senior leaders, the infrastructure team, BEMS, clinicians, and everyone else across the HHS.
“It’s been a privilege to work alongside so many dedicated people.”

Pilot program prepares international doctors for the next step
International medical graduates (IMGs) have been given a taste of life in the north as part of a pilot program designed to prepare them for the Australian healthcare workforce.
The NQ IMG Prep Program is a 12-week work placement program where doctors are supported in their core knowledge and skills through a clinical placement at Townsville University Hospital.
Director of clinical training IMG Prep Program
Associate Professor Rebecca Stewart said the program addressed several barriers IMGs faced while they prepared for employment in Australia.
“There are minimal opportunities to become orientated to the Australian healthcare system in their role as a medical practitioner,” Rebecca said.
“It includes gaining recency of practice in their home country or Australia or familiarising themselves with Medicare, Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme, allied health referrals, understanding how our health system functions generally, and giving them opportunities outside of the big cities.”
“Around 53 per cent of the rural GP workforce is IMGs, so we also provide them support outside of the workplace with information about things to do in the area, schools for their kids, housing, and collegiate support.”
Ten doctors were given the opportunity to be part of the first cohort including Dr Ethan Wang, who hails from China, having moved to Australia eight years ago before he was able to complete his training as a cardiothoracic surgeon.
Ethan said the support provided by the NQ IMG Prep Program had been invaluable as he tried to navigate the complex Australian healthcare system.
“Gaining (AHPRA Level 1) registration can be a little bit tricky and complicated, and having my documents from China verified here was difficult,” he said.
“The NQ IMG Prep Program team offered a lot of support and always kept me updated about what stage my application was at.”
The hope is that upon completion of the program, IMGs would stay in the north Queensland region, something that Ethan said he would consider.
“By the time we are finished, we’ll have completed 12 weeks of practice and become familiar with many things here,” he said.
“Nothing is guaranteed of course, but if there’s an opportunity, I will be putting my hand up.”

Beanies brighten day for oncology patients
St Margaret Mary’s College students have rolled up their sleeves, crocheting over 40 handmade beanies for patients in the oncology unit at Townsville University Hospital (TUH).
Students Chloe (year 12), Afsheen (year 8), and Iman (year 10) wanted to bring their handcrafted beanies and hats to patients in the oncology ward to bring some joy to the hospital.
“It took eight weeks over the Christmas holidays to crochet all the beanies,” Chloe said.
“They are all unique with each beanie taking about three days to complete and they were made in every colour and style so that there was something for everyone.”
Chloe said she had been working on a religion assignment at school focussed on meaning and purpose, with the visit shedding some light on what she had learnt so far.
“You always want to leave the world a better place than you found it and I hope we had a part in that today.”
Oncology unit patient Sally Cunningham is on a clinical trial for multiple myeloma and said having the students visit and gift her a beanie was special.
“Kids are getting a bad rap these days, so it’s wonderful to see these students doing something good for others,” Sally said.
“The girls are beautiful and I’m very happy, it made my day.”
Patient Lloyd Stewart is often in and out of the oncology unit due to infections and said he loved his new beanie.
“These visits are really cool for the patients, especially those that need to travel for treatment and might not have visitors,” Lloyd said.
“Seeing the smiles on the kids’ faces certainly makes the day easier.”
Student Iman said the beanie project began at the end of 2024 when she decided to go to her teacher to ask for yarn.
“Crocheting and creating is a passion for me and being able to turn this passion into something useful and meaningful is great,” Iman said.
“We are keen to do more to help the community and are going to make blankets and socks next for different parts of the hospital.”

Townsville HHS initiative addresses health gaps at youth detention centre
The Townsville Hospital and Health Service has expanded screening of young people in youth detention centres.
It is part of a Queensland Government initiative to improve mental, cognitive, and physical health screening and onward specialist referrals for conditions like ADHD, foetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD), and learning difficulties.
More than 100 young people at the Cleveland Youth Detention Centre have received a comprehensive primary health assessment, with close to a third being referred to child development services.
Clinical Nurse Consultant Jason Laverack said the assessments have helped to address health issues, improve health literacy, and identify underlying conditions that could impact behaviour.
This program is creating a more comprehensive assessment for young people who come into the detention centre while also linking them with services in the community,” Jason said.
“Through this initiative, we’ve made necessary referrals to areas like cardiology and ENT while also referring for further assessment diagnosis for neurodevelopmental conditions and intellectual disabilities.”
“This means once out of care they will be able to access services like the NDIS to get the help and support they need.”
Dr Jessica Eltherington said the funding through the Queensland Government’s Community Safety Plan for Queensland had helped provide additional resources required, such as nurses, a GP, and admin support.
“It has also expanded the capacity of the child development services through speech pathology, occupational therapists, paediatricians, and psychologists to handle the increased referrals from the program,” Jessica said.
“Through the initiative, we’ve not only been able to help identify neurodevelopmental conditions but also detect and treat conditions like fungal infections, rheumatic heart disease, and growth issues.”
Jessica said one of the other benefits of the initiative has been engaging with young people and their families about healthcare.
“This has not only been about working with those young people but also their families as well to improve health literacy across the board,” Jessica said.
“We are helping to create positive relationships between the healthcare system and these young people and their families, making it much more likely that they will continue to engage with health moving forward.”

Patients and staff codesign workshop for medical students
Consumers and clinicians came together last week as part of an effort to better understand the patient experience and co-design a workshop for sixth-year medical students called ‘The Human Connection’.
Led by intensive care staff specialist Dr Joanna Longley and renal intern Dr Mahima Balaji, the session was born out of a desire to help medical students and junior doctors understand patient needs and their experience of the hospital.
“We know that most doctors and medical students go into the field because they want to help people,” Joanna said.
“We also know that some patients have very negative experiences about being in hospital.
“What we’re doing is finding how this disconnect happens and showing medical students and junior doctors how they could provide the sort of personcentred, compassionate care our patients need.”
Jason Hancock from the Townsville Hospital and Health Service Consumer Advisory Council said it was important that doctors learned, not just how to fix people, but how to care for their patients.
“Everyone has families and different things going on in their lives and the hospital is really the last place anyone wants to be,” Jason said.
“But things happen and people end up in hospital for all sorts of reasons such as severe health conditions or major life-changing events.
“I think it’s important, especially for young doctors coming through, that they learn that person-centred care is paramount and to help make the patients’ hospital experience as comfortable as possible.”
Joanna said the stories and feedback collected at the session would form the basis of the modules for the student workshop.
“The purpose of this consumer co-design group is to collect these stories of patient experiences to share with medical students and to help us understand how we can do better as medical professionals,” she said.
“It’s wonderful that our consumers want to be involved, share their stories and be part of the whole process to foster more positive experiences of our health service.”

No short stay for dedicated clinical nurse
After a dedicated career helping patients and contributing to better care in the emergency environment, clinical nurse Adrienne Davidson has bid farewell to her team to step into retirement.
Adrienne has been a nurse for 51 years, 38 of those with Queensland Health, and began working in the short-stay unit at Townsville University Hospital (TUH) in 2010 after moving from Mount Isa.
Now moving into the next stage of life, Adrienne said it was overwhelming to be recognised and farewelled by her peers at a special afternoon tea.
“I’ve met so many wonderful people here that I will miss dearly,” Adrienne said.
“It’s very overwhelming seeing the effort they have put in to give me such a lovely goodbye.
Adrienne said she was proud of her time in the health service, especially her work in procedure and policy changes.
“I have worked on chest pain and occupational violence audits, and heat pack and Irukandji sting protocols, which I hope have made a positive impact on patient care,” Adrienne said.
Nursing director rural and remote connect Chris Mcintosh said Adrienne would be greatly missed as a source of wisdom in the short-stay unit.
“When I started as nurse unit manager of the shortstay unit around 2016, Adrienne was one of the rocks of the unit and was very stabilising for me,” Chris said.
“When I reflect on the challenges that I had to overcome in that first year, I vividly remember Adrienne, the background she had, and her calming influence on people.
Acting short-stay nurse unit manager Arnaka Laffan said Adrienne had achieved so much throughout her time and had a drive to continuously improve outcomes for patients and staff.
“If we went around to each and every colleague from enrolled, registered and clinical nurses from the unit, current and past nurse unit managers, and current acting nursing directors, I am sure they would all have very fond memories of working with Adrienne,” Arnaka said.
Adrienne said although she knew retiring was the right decision, she was going to miss the contact with the people in her team.
“The whole unit is wonderful and have truly looked after me,” Adrienne said.
“I am really looking forward to spending time with my daughter who works as an oncology nurse, and my three grandchildren, as well as doing more gardening and volunteer work.”
Thank you for your service, Adrienne, and we wish you all the best for your next adventure.
