Seating patients more comfortably at St George and Sutherland Hospitals
This year St George and Sutherland Hospitals and Health Services are using Dry July money to make patients a little more comfortable by focusing on new chairs. All areas of the hospitals’ cancer treatment areas endure high traffic and chairs wear out quickly; however, without outside funding support, timely replacement wouldn't be possible.
Purchases will include:
High back chairs for inpatient areas of 4 North and 4 East
High back chairs for Gunyah ward
A specialised procedural chair
SGSHHS will also buy a portable ultrasound machine for the Haematology Oncology Day Centre, to assist clinical staff in guiding cannulations more accurately.
