  • Michael nurse recruitment
    Meet Enrolled Nurse Michael 27 June 2025 Osborne Park Hospitals (OPH) enrolled nurse, Michael, recently shared what he loved most about working as an enrolled nurse and what made the North Metropolitan Health Service (NMHS) a great place to work. Michael is passionate advocate for workplaces where you feel like part of a big, supportive family. He said he discovered this environment at NMHS with his nursing journey beginning at Graylands Hospital. “From day one, I felt the camaraderie deeply embedded within the organisation,” Michael said. “It’s more than just working together — it’s building lifelong friendships, which is a natural part of a career within NMHS.” Throughout his journey at NMHS, Michael said he had been wrapped in a blanket of support from doctors and nurses to allied health professionals and health support services. “It’s a true team effort,” he said. ...

    SCGOPHCG Chaplaincy and Easter Services at SCGH 13 April 2022 SCGOPHCG hospitals care for the whole person, not just their physical condition. For many people, emotional and spiritual issues surface while they are in hospital. Life crises such as illness and hospitalisation can raise spiritual questions or issues of meaning and value. Our Chaplaincy and Spiritual Services Department exists to offer compassionate, professional spiritual ministry to all patients, family, support persons and staff during their time at our hospital. Chaplains and Pastoral Assistants provide support through pastoral care, pastoral counselling, and spiritual rituals. You do not have to be a religious person to receive pastoral care. Pastoral Care principles are patient-centred and not religiously based and we strive to provide accompaniment, support and care for all. Australia is a multi-cultural country whose people have different beliefs and spiritual needs. If you are...
  • Red flowering gum
    Hello Djeran! 01 April 2022 Djeran is symbolised by the soothing colour green signifying the move from the hot dry orange-hued weather into a cooler, lush dewy-morninged season. Known as the season of ants and adulthood, marriages and courtship ceremonies, the growth into Djeran is marked by a change in the natural environment rather than specific dates. Noongar culture says that Djeran brings a change in wind direction from the north-east to the south-west and that flying ants will be seen surfing these newly-tuned zephyrs. This week as we move from March into April, the soft rainy overcast days and refreshing breezes tell us that the scorching heatwaves are behind us. We will notice the loud bursting of the red flowering gum and the shy head-rearing of the baby flowers of summer flame. Banksias will provide their flowers as nectar to nourish the small mammals and birds that love them. As Djeran finds its foothol...

Age is the number one risk factor so everybody from the age of 50, regardless of gender and sexuality, should screen for bowel cancer. The LGBTQI+ Cancer Screening Campaign has been developed ...

  • OPH 60th Birthday 29 March Lorraine Beatty, Carol Symes, Robert Malekin, Marie Slater, Lisa Summers
    Happy 60th Birthday OPH! 29 March 2022 Today is a very special day… Osborne Park Hospital is turning 60! Opened on this day in 1962, OPH originally served the general medical and maternity needs of the City of Stirling catchment. Quickly becoming known for its friendly, caring and efficient atmosphere, our hospital saw 76 admissions in its first full month (April 1962), served around 1,300 patients in its first year, and by 1966 had admitted 10,000 patients – those were the days! From humble beginnings, OPH now plays a key role in how we deliver specialist health care services to the north metropolitan area. In early 2021, OPH and SCGH became truly one health care group, with a divisional restructure to deliver the two sites, one service vision for SCGOPHCG. With 187 beds and nearly 600 staff, our dedicated team at OPH cared for more than 103,595 patients in 2021. We’ve seen significant developments at the...
