GIPPSLAND CANCER CARE CENTRE UPDATE

GARDS was very privileged to have Nicole Steers, Latrobe Regional Hospital Group Manager of Continuing Care come along to give a talk to over 30 members of the GARDS group on the final touches to the Gippsland Cancer Care Centre.

The GCCC is on schedule to open mid May for Gippsland people needing treatment for cancer. Nicole introduced to the group the newly appointed Senior Radiation Therapist from the William Buckland Radiotherapy Centre, Nigel Cristofaro, who will be working at the Gippsland Cancer Care Centre. Nigel comes with a wealth of experience from his travels overseas and has only just recently returned to Australia and has been in Latrobe Valley for only six weeks. The third member of the team to visit from LRH was Armita Hanley - a Management Resident participating in the Rural Management Residency Program of the Victorian Healthcare Association. Armita will be at LRH for six months to gain experience in the health field.
