A Celebration of Innovation and Unity
by Sonia Marshall 26/09/2024
We reflect on the journey, the seeds we chose to sow.
From the heart of equity, we painted a vivid scene,
Highlighting the challenges, the gaps, and the dream.
In the First 2000 days, we laid our foundation,
Investing in futures, nurturing innovation.
Celebrating milestones, like renal transplants’ grace,
Liverpool Hospital stands as a beacon in this place.
Together with communities, hand in hand we stride,
Aboriginal voices and CALD hearts open wide.
Tailoring programs, meeting needs with care,
Pasifika prevention, cultural safety we share.
Diversity in aging, we embraced every hue,
Brilliant aging unfolds, as life’s tapestry grew.
Tech marvels amazed us, from RoboFit’s lift,
To AI bots guiding us, a truly wondrous gift.
Day two danced in culture, with stories profound,
Aboriginal wisdom, in every word and sound.
Research on the young, from preconception’s light,
The Children’s panel spoke, igniting our insight.
Each afternoon brought forth inspiration anew,
Incredible staff showcasing the work they pursue.
Improving care and outcomes, a mission we embrace,
Making South West Sydney a vibrant, thriving space.
So here’s to the connections, the networks we’ve made,
To the voices uplifted, the foundations laid.
As we close this chapter, let’s carry the flame,
With hope in our hearts, let’s continue the aim.
For together we innovate, inspire, and ignite,
In unity we flourish, let’s soar to new heights!
