A Year-End Message from Our CEO

December 24, 2025

As another year draws to a close, I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to our incredible staff, volunteers, our dedicated partners and specialists, and of course, our patients and their families.

This has been a year where St Andrew’s has seen many changes - we have welcomed new faces, and said goodbye to colleagues whose contributions shaped who we are today.

As the year unfolded and brought us challenges and opportunities, you have pulled together as a team, embracing our values of care, excellence and teamwork and your unwavering commitment to patient centred care is what makes our Hospital the special place that it is.

As we approach Christmas, I’m mindful that whilst this season is joyful for many it can also be a difficult time for some. But we stand together as a community that supports, understands, and lifts one another up.

Thank you for everything you do, every day.

I wish you and your families a peaceful and joyous Christmas and look forward to welcoming you in the new year with the hope and prosperity it brings and look forward to celebrating together with you, our 90th year anniversary.

Eileen Sawyer
Chief Executive Officer
