the hands of Chris Warner (Michael Galvin), several new nurses were hired including Toni Thompson. Toni quickly made her mark on the social scene at the hospital, forming a tight bond with Donna Heka (Stephanie Tauevihi). After a series of one-night stands, she started a relationship with Matt McCallister (Roy Snow) but quickly moved on with Adam Heywood (Leighton Cardno). When Adam left her, Toni rebounded to a purely sexual partnership with senior surgeon Chris Warner.

Chris tracked them down 6 months later, but in the resulting escape Toni and Guy got into a serious car crash. Toni survived but lost a kidney and returned to work at Shortland Street. Nursing Guy through his drug addiction, the relationship ended when Toni
