    Dear valued colleagues and friends,
    It is with great sadness that I write to tell you that Beth Bint, who many of you will remember with fondness as she never failed to make an impression, has passed away this morning. Beth was diagnosed with leukaemia last July, and sadly her condition did not respond to treatment.
    Beth passed away peacefully at home, with her family and her closest friend at her side.
    Beth had worked in the field of infection prevention and control for many years, starting her journey in the field when she nursed HIV patients in the 1980s. Originally from the Newcastle area, this is where she began work as an infection prevention and control nurse. After a short time working with the Department of Health in South Australia, she returned to NSW to take up the position of Clinical Nurse Consultant with the Infection Management and Control Service (IMACS) in the Illawarra Shoalhaven Local Health District, based at Wollongong Hospital.
    Starting with us in June 2009, she had a baptism of fire as the H1N1 influenza arrived at the same time. Beth took this in her stride, and over the ensuing years her influence on the work of IMACS can be easily identified. She had a very strong belief in the importance of putting the patient at the centre of our work, rather than the pathogen. Beth also used her extensive knowledge and skills in contributing to statewide policies and guidelines including the NSW Health Infection Prevention and Control policy and the Australasian Health Service Facility Guidelines.
    One of the highlights of Beth’s recent career was winning the scientific panels’ award for best poster at the ACIPC conference in 2016.

    We wish Beth’s family and the many friends and colleagues that she touched on a personal and a professional level, our very best thoughts at this sad time.

    With my very best wishes to you all
