The celebrations veteran organisations, the Repatriation Commission and DVA and many others who have been involved with the hospital across its 70 year history. The GPH Race Day which has not been held for the last few years was revived as part of the 70th anniversary and followed the next week by the annual ANZAC Day Dawn Service and Gunfire Breakfast which enjoyed record attendance. The anniversary celebrations culminated in the 70th Anniversary Gala Ball, which was held at the Sofitel Brisbane on Saturday 24 March. More than 400 guests attended and were welcomed by CEO Mark Page, who in his welcoming address thanked “every single person who has graced the corridors, wards, theatres, offices and every other nook and cranny of our fine hospital for contributing to the fabric of what we are today”. Afterwards, the guests were shown a video presentation that documented the history of the hospital in 18 minutes. The video featured a range of interviews with people who have long been associated with the hospital, along with many wonderful historical photos that helped illuminate how far the hospital has come since its opening day in 1942. Now, with the new development and maternity service set to open in early 2013, Greenslopes Private Hospital is proud to welcome a new chapter to its extraordinary 70 year legacy. ANZAC Day 10 GPHnews
