    International Women's Day Spotlight - Department of Quality and Safety 28 March 2023 Our International Women's Day Spotlight 2023 continues in its final week, featuring the Department of Quality and Safety.

Women have become more confident to step up and apply, and show that they are extremely capable of excelling in these types of roles. Has there been a shift in career paths women choose today compared to the past few decades? Definitely!

We were overwhelmed with interest and received thirty entries from throughout our sites and services. The judges managed to visit all entries within QEII Medical Centre and Fiona Stanley Hospital on Friday and assessed online entries from other areas that could not be attended on the day.
