The recent refurbishment of our North Ryde hospital has completely changed the game for the veterinary industry in Australia! Spread across a clinical space of 3 floors, we have tripled the number of consulting rooms, increased our open ward space dramatically and added 6 brand new theatres. These new facilities have seen our Ophthalmology, Surgery and Neurology teams come together to work as the SASH Theatre team. This enables us to cross-train our teams, provide extensive and continuous education programs and offer unparalleled career opportunities!
With the new hospital fit-out has also come a revamped nurse team structure, having introduced Nursing Manager and Nurse Unit Managers for each department. Our team leaders in each team will play an extremely important role in providing support to their team of nurses as well as to the unit manager.
