The Switchboard team are always happy to help but staff are also able to search for Austin Health contact details via the search function in the top right-hand corner of on The Hub.
Staff can enter the name or Department they are looking to contact and be provided with a list of suggested staff contact details.
This search function helps everybody be self-sufficient and also save time for the Switchboard team so they can focus on calls from the community needing information about Austin Health.
