Welcome new graduates to Monash Health

Last week we welcomed our new graduates at the 2019 Monash Health Interprofessional Orientation.

Over 600 graduates are joining us this year, the largest intake of health professionals across Victoria.

We are excited to continue to grow our incredible workforce of medical, dental, pharmacy, allied health, nursing and midwifery staff at Monash Health.

The theme for the day was ‘Start the Conversation’, where where graduates were encouraged to develop relationships between professional disciplines, gain awareness of other health professional roles and recognise that Monash Health develops effective teams in addition to individual competence.

There was a welcome from Andrew Stripp, Chief Executive, along with members of executive including Cheyne Chalmers, Executive Director Residential and Support Services / Chief Nursing and Midwifery Officer, Dani Ryan, Chief Allied Health Officer, Anjali Dhulia, Acting Chief Medical Officer and Wendy Ewing, Deputy Director of Pharmacy – Quality who shared personal stories about their professional journey.
