10.01.2022 In healthcare facilities, it takes a network of teammates to ensure the optimal health of patients who receive care. The most successful teams are those who acknowledge each other’s strengths and work together inspiring one another along the way. I have had the privilege of working with Anna at the Port Macquarie GP Superclinic. Anna spreads energy and inspiration. Her generous attitude is transferred to others in her surroundings. In Anna’s point of view there is always a wa...y forward! She takes action and makes sure it happens. Anna Davidson is a hero! She has protected and saved many front line medics. If it weren’t for her sheer determination, thousands of surgeries throughout Australia would have had no access to hand sanitiser. This would have caused many surgeries to close their doors. Practices, Nursing homes and many more facilities can now continue to offer their services to rural patients. Thank you!

Members of the community have been advised to get their age appropriate vaccine as soon as these are available.
