As part of Sunshine Hospital adapting to be a COVID streaming hospital, the Sunshine ED is undergoing changes to the zones it has allocated for managing COVID infection risk.

New Resuscitation Area opens next Wednesday, 29th September.
After some minor delays related to the re-installation of pendants, the Expansion Team are excited to be opening this new space.

If you are working on the day, either in the resuscitation area or as a clinical lead, you can contact united@wh.org.au to receive a copy of the webinar and ensure you are up-to-date and ready to play your part with the move!
