The Townsville Hospital - Git up Challenge Emergency Hospital

The city slickers tried to 'Git Up', but no one throws down like a North Queenslander! Congratulations to our Emergency Department team who practised before and after work to pull this brilliant dance together.
Thank you for warming up the stage for the main act Metro South Health and West Moreton Health.

As a nurse, how did you find time? I loved it. Nurses can have fun too. The poor lone guy was embarrassed but you guys did great.

[@townsvillehospitalandhealt7580]

Hi Bonnie, the crew practised before and after work and, to their credit, completed this after they finished nightshift at 6AM in the morning!

[@chescat58]

Nice job & I love that you did it on the helipad!

[@townsvillehospitalandhealt7580]

It was a great location (and all cleared beforehand)! The staff performed the dance after their night shift had ended so having the sun rise behind them was an excellent bonus.

[@AusMLE888]

Townsville Hospital and Health Service great work guys Thankyou for all the amazing work you all do

[@jasoncardoza6375]

You can smell the nurses egos through the screen. Yeah years later and the pandemic was bull sh!t. Such a “ deadly “ disease. Our hospitals were empty so was yours and so many others. Y’all know there was janitors in hospitals too right? They saw it completely differently and how lazy the nurses were. What a joke

[@deoniemcdonald9234]

Hi Cody, the team practised before and after work to pull this brilliant dance together. They completed the dance AFTER they had finished a full nightshift and the next shift had already started.

Hi there, we're unsure if you can see this but the video was posted Sep 24, 2019 after the staff had finished their shift and a new shift had started. This was WELL before the pandemic, so our staff were more than safe.

this was made 6 months ago before the corona pandemic

[@townsvillehospitalandhealt7580]

Hi there, we're unsure if you've realised yet but this video was uploaded Sep 24, 2019. The team practised in their own time and completed this after their shift had ended and the new shift had started. Have a great day!

The NSW hospital department should dance to radio active

[@EileenMKeyes]

Shared this on Facebook just now. Lots of us need this cheer from a happier time. Thanks. We'll get back there when this pandemic is over. Dance if you can, even if it's on the way to your car. It helps.

[@aussiefan354]

Wow, must be really busy to take time out to do this

[@townsvillehospitalandhealt7580]

Hi AussieFan, if you have a look at the caption you will see that our staff completed this OUTSIDE work hours. They practiced before and after work to pull this dance together. We've had a lot of great, positive comments and we appreciate you taking the time to have a look.

What if there was an actual emergency while they were dancing

[@anniebaker9]

I agree

[@annagilda1]

This was the night shift that had finished. There was a separate shift of staff working.

[@townsvillehospitalandhealt7580]

Hi there, you'll see in the caption that the team all got together to do this after their night shift had ended and they were about to go home. We hope this clears up any confusion!

[@ElveeKaye]

So, we are told that loads of people are dying, hospitals are full, and medical staff can hardly keep up ..but somehow, they find the time to make videos like this?? They sure do seem happy and carefree about the whole situation. Nobody looks tired or stressed out. You don't get the impression that, in all those rooms that the camera doesn't show us, there are patients dying of a horrible disease. If having a pandemic is so wonderful, maybe we should have more of them. It sure does a world of good for these nurses.

[@townsvillehospitalandhealt7580]

Hi there, thank you for taking the time to comment. Our Emergency Department team practiced before and after work to pull this brilliant dance together. The filming was done AFTER they had finished night shift at 6AM. This was also filmed WELL BEFORE the pandemic. On top of this, our doctors and nurses do experience stress, like everyone does in each individual job, that is why team building exercises like this are great as they allow them to come together and have fun amidst the stress of their job. They come together as a team for emergencies and also come together as a team to relax together.
