BCHS
BCHS closed its services on June 13,
2024 for an all-staff development
day to connect, keep learning, give,
be active and take notice. These
Five Ways to Wellbeing flowed
through the event, which was
designed to strengthen the team,
and in turn, the community health
service.
Staff shared their wisdom and
expertise on the day, which included
exercises from Joel, of Exercise
Physiology; anchor dropping from
Joy, of Forensic Mental Health;
and mindfulness from Sebastian
and Siobhan, of Health Promotion.
There was inspiration from CEO
Mandy, encouragement to think
differently from Lisa and Jason of
Minds at Work, elevator pitches
from all the teams, great food
from Crooked Kitchen and warm
hospitality from the Baptist Church
venue in Junortoun.
Board chair Melanie officially
launched the Strategic Plan for
2025-2027, developed following
months of consultation with a
group of passionate staff.
The then-longest serving staff
member, Paula May of Family
Services (1979-2024), joined
Melanie to cut a cake to mark the
50th anniversary of community
health in Bendigo.
The day ended with an exquisite
performance from the BCHS inhouse bilingual choir leading a
rendition of I am Australian.
