This morning, Northern Health welcomed Victoria’s new Minister for Health and Ambulance Services, The Hon. Mary-Anne Thomas, to Northern Hospital Epping.

In her first week of her new role, The Hon. Mary-Anne Thomas met with Jennifer Williams AM, Northern Health Board Chair and Siva Sivarajah, Northern Health Chief Executive for a tour of Northern Hospital.

After arriving at the Main Ward Block, The Hon. Mary-Anne Thomas proceeded to the Emergency Department (ED) where she received a tour of the area and was briefed on the latest developments and news. During her tour, she stopped to chat with our ED staff and thanked them for their important contributions and hard work during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic.

We wish The Hon. Mary-Anne Thomas all the best in her new appointment.
