A visit to Epworth

Elizabeth Todd (middle), Nurse Unit Manager – Operating Room, explains the benefit of the SPY-PHI to Epworth Medical Foundation Directors George Stamas and Cathi Biddick AM.

Recently I was invited by Epworth Medical Foundation, alongside one of my fellow Directors, Cathi Biddick AM, to be present at the arrival and installation of state-of-the-art new medical equipment at Epworth Richmond.

This equipment, which had been entirely funded by donations, included an endoscopic ultrasound, SPY-PHI, and observation machines. It was a privilege and an honour to be able to meet with the medical staff at Epworth, and see first-hand their genuine excitement and gratitude for the generous gifts that had made this equipment possible.

Epworth HealthCare has a vision to provide patients at Epworth with the best possible treatment and care, and ensuring that our surgeons and nurses have the best equipment in hand is critical to this.
