Clinic Team Leader

Feb 2022

New South Wales, Australia

5 to 6 years in the role

Rewarding, inspirational and full of opportunity

The good things

The Clinics Outpatient Team Leader Liz Simic was the most reliable, informative and fair person in management. My journey at Lifehouse was positive because of the constant support and training provided by her and her team. Opportunities come up very often in this Hospital and there is always room to grow if you show initiative and hard work! It was so very rewarding to be a part of a patient's journey being able to help and go above and beyond for patient satisfaction.

The challenges

Challenging would be the fast paced environment but once fully trained it was enjoyable especially with a great team.

3 to 4 years in the role

I had to leave Lifthouse due to family commitments but if I was to return to Sydney it would be my first port of call for employment.

The good things

Amazing staff whom often felt more like family than colleagues. Everyone at Life House goes above and beyond for patients and for each other a real culture of care and hope fill this entire facility.

The challenges

Being a not for profit sometimes money was tight and so you had to be creative with the resources on hand, The nature of the work was often emotionally taxing but manageable.

Very rewarding place to work, and only getting better.

The good things

- The Hospital values that everybody really works by, and are held to. They aren't just fluff written on a poster and ignored. - New, amazing facility. - Apparently has one of the highest employee engagement ratings, and you can see it. Everyone is on the same page and working for the patients, very satisfying.

The challenges

Cancer is a terrible disease, it can be a tough environment to work in. Managers and staff are supportive though.
