New South Wales’ nursing workforce will be ramped up this year, with an in�ux of undergraduate nurses and experienced overseas nurses.

Nurses from the United States, United Kingdom and Ireland are expected to start work with New South Wales Health in the �rst quarter of this year while 1646 undergraduate nurses have accepted offers to commence as newly registered nurses in 2012.

The nursing injection comes as NSW Health works to add an extra 2475 nurses to its wards within the next four years in a bid to bolster patient care.

A NSW Ministry of Health spokesperson said the in�ux of undergraduate and overseas nurses will add to the extra 970 nurses who began roles with the NSW public health system between March and October last year.

NSW Health cast its recruitment net internationally last year, with positions advertised in general nursing, medical/surgical, mental health, palliative care, acute rehab, emergency, operating theatres and in midwifery.

The spokesperson said the campaign targeted experienced nurses eligible for Australian registration across the UK, USA and Ireland.

“The response to the recruitment campaign was good and there was interest from experienced nurses in all the countries visited, particularly due to Australia’s climate and working conditions,” she said.

More nurses join the ranks at New South Wales Health

Nurse practitioners and advanced practice nurses at Australia’s �rst public nurse-led walk-in centre assessed and treated around 70 per cent of their 16,500 presentations, without those patients requiring referral to alternative services, in 2011.

The �gures come as the Labor ACT Government has committed to double its funding for nurse-led walk-in centres in Canberra, if it is re-elected to power in October.

Chief Minister and Health Minister Katy Gallagher wants to talk to local GPs, consumers and nurses about the preferred model for establishing the services, which could involve two or three centres – with nurse-led walk-in centres also mooted for Belconnen and Tuggeranong.

Ms Gallagher said the ACT Health Walk-In Centre, based at the Canberra Hospital, has shown “positive” growth since it opened in May 2010, while helping alleviate pressure on the state’s busy hospital emergency departments.

“The most common reason for people presenting to the WiC is for upper respiratory tract infections, which equates to over 20 per cent of presentations since it opened,” Ms Gallagher said.

“The nurse-led centres have also treated a variety of other conditions which have included wounds and lacerations, ear conditions, tonsillitis and gastroenteritis.”

Ms Gallagher said feedback showed 80 per cent of patients have been very satis�ed with their treatment or advice.

A spokeswoman for Ms Gallagher said the �nal model of the proposed expanded service

would depend on the outcome of discussions with stakeholders.

“For example, one way would be to retain the Canberra Hospital Walk-in Centre and create a hub and spoke model with two smaller WiCs in Tuggeranong and Belconnen,” the spokeswoman said.

“Another possibility is to move the existing WiC off the Canberra Hospital campus, keeping the Canberra Hospital for acute care services, and create two larger walk-in centres in Tuggeranong and Belconnen.”

The ACT branch of the Australian Nursing Federation has welcomed Labor’s commitment to expand the centres.

ACT ANF branch secretary Jenny Miragaya said the Canberra Hospital centre, which is staffed by a small group of highly-skilled nurses, has made “signi�cant improvements” to healthcare services and options available in the region.

“The high rates of utilisation, short waiting times and consumers’ high levels of satisfaction with the advice and treatment they received re�ect well on the nurse-led WiC model and the skill and ability of the staff,” she said.

“The nurses who staff the existing walk-in centre are very experienced and highly educated healthcare professionals.

“The ACT ANF hopes that with the proposed expansion of the WiC model the role of the nurse practitioners will be expanded to allow them to deliver healthcare within their full scope of practice,” Ms Miragaya said.

New South Wales nurse Kellie Wilson has farewelled her husband and her hero, helicopter paramedic Mick Wilson at his funeral in Sydney.

Mrs Wilson paid tribute to her husband and the father of their three children, who died while rescuing canyoners on Christmas Eve.

Hundreds of family, friends and paramedic colleagues gathered for the funeral at St James Anglican Church on January 3, where the couple were also married 16 years ago.

“He was my soul mate, my protector, my con�dant, my best friend,” Mrs Wilson said.

“I will be forever grateful to the actions of those who assisted Michael in the �nal moments and the ultimate tearful retrieval.

“It is no surprise to me that Michael courageously died laying his body on the line for his patients.

“A true hero in every sense of the word to the very end.”

Mr Wilson, a paramedic for 15 years, died after a winch line was cut during a complex rescue operation at Carrington Falls on the NSW south coast.

He is the �rst NSW paramedic to be killed on duty in more than 30 years.

The Civil Aviation Safety Authority and the Australian Transport Safety Bureau will investigate the accident.

In a statement, the Ambulance Service of New South Wales said it would cooperate fully with the investigation and was unable to make any further comment.

An appeal has been established to support the Wilson family. To support the family, visit the Commonwealth Bank and donate to the ‘Mick Wilson Family Appeal’, BSB 062-177, Account No 1024 7793.

A Philippines government agency will investigate job opportunities in Australia as the country’s number of unemployed and under-employed nurses climbs to almost 300,000.

The Philippine Overseas Employment Administration has told media the country’s large number of out of work nurses, including the 68,000 who recently passed nursing board examinations, could be the answer to Australia’s nursing shortage.

“With…its healthcare system now with an acute need for registered nurses and other allied professionals, there are tremendous opportunities to widen the gateway for jobs for Filipinos in Australia across all industries and across all states and territories,” POEA administrator Carlos Cao Jr said.

A spokesman for Acting Health Minister Nicola Roxon said the Australian Government welcomed suitably quali�ed nurses from overseas, including the Philippines.

“There are opportunities for overseas trained nurses to work in Australia,” he said.

“However, nurses and midwives seeking to practise in Australia must meet the professional standards required by the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia.

“These standards apply equally to all Australian citizens and permanent residents as well as internationally quali�ed health professionals.”

The spokesman said the government was delivering on its commitment to the Australian nursing workforce, providing training for an additional 3220 registered nurses in the past three years while increasing the number of

registered nurses by 21 per cent, up from 34,871 in 2007 to 42,182 in 2010.

“The Gillard Government is… supporting nurses to work in places of high need such as rural health, aged care, primary care and emergency medicine,” he said.

“In addition as part of the Australian Government’s $425 million commitment to further expand clinical training places, 32 per cent will go to nursing.”

The spokesman said the nation’s health workforce agency, Health Workforce Australia, was working with states and territories on a range of key programs including areas of workforce planning, clinical education and training, and international recruitment, aimed at meeting the future needs of the nursing workforce.

Psychologists have called on the Federal Government to re-think its cuts to mental health services for vulnerable Australians.

The Australian Psychological Society, which represents 20,000 psychologists, wants the government to reinstate six Medicare-funded psychology sessions for patients in the most acute distress.

The government reduced the number of funded sessions, as part of its Better Access to Mental Health Care initiative, from 18 to 10 last November, in a bid to save $174.6 million.

APS executive director Lyn Little�eld said the government could still save $117.5 million by introducing stricter rules for accessing the extra six sessions under exceptional circumstances.

“A large number of vulnerable Australians have been left without access to crucial care,” she said.

“With a slight adjustment to the rules and a relatively small expenditure, the government can protect them, while keeping the cuts it has used for other mental health investments.

“The heavy demand for Medicare-funded mental health sessions are testament to the immense need in the Australian community.”

The APS has outlined the proposal in its pre-budget submission to the government, alongside a list of proposals including greater access to neuropsychological assessments for older Australians, to ensure precise diagnosis of cognitive impairment-related health issues and more cost-effective treatment.

It is also seeking investment for a scheme to increase the number of psychologists in aged care facilities, in a bid to reduce the unnecessary use of medications for those with dementia, mood disorders and disruptive behaviour.

Psychologists demand mental health sessions be reinstated

New Zealand’s Counties Manukau District Health Board is urging its staff and patients to be extra vigilant after a woman tried to abduct a newborn baby.

The board is reviewing its security procedures after a 24-year-old woman was charged with abducting a two-day-old girl from a closed ward at Auckland’s Middlemore Hospital on January 4.

The woman reportedly faked her own pregnancy for nine months and asked her partner to take her to the hospital to be induced.

The woman then allegedly removed the baby and tried to leave the hospital’s car park, when a nurse and the baby’s parents alerted staff who stopped the woman and also contacted police.

Police later arrested and charged the woman with abduction of a young person.

A Counties Manukau District Health Board spokeswoman said the incident was a “very rare event”.

“Despite a closed ward this unfortunate event happened,” she said.

“We are reviewing all of our security procedures to ensure that this cannot happen again. We are also asking patients and staff to be extra vigilant.”

The woman was remanded on bail at a court appearance on January 5 and is due to reappear in Manukau District Court later this month.

The Middlemore Hospital is the largest hospital run under Counties Manukau District Health Board, offering secondary-level hospital and specialist care for an area that stretches from Otahuhu to Port Waikato.

A renowned New Zealand nursing leader has been appointed as the new Chief Nursing and Midwifery Of�cer at Queensland Health.

Former New Zealand Ministry of Health Nursing Chief Advisor Dr Frances Hughes will begin work at Queensland Health on March 6.

Dr Hughes, who has immediate family based in Brisbane, will move from Porirua to take up the position.

“I am looking forward to the challenge and keen to take the role to the next level,” Dr Hughes said.

“I have been privileged to have studied and worked with many colleagues in Australia, and I look forward to now working in Queensland Health in this strategic leadership position.”

Queensland Nurses Union secretary Beth Mohle welcomed the appointment, while recognising the work of Acting Chief Nursing and Midwifery Of�cer Cheryl Burns.

“Since 2005 we have worked collaboratively with Queensland Health’s nursing and midwifery leadership, using an interest-based, problem solving approach, to address the challenges confronting the professions of nursing and midwifery,” she said.

“This is vital work if we are to meet the increasing health needs of our community.

“We continue to use this approach to our current negotiations for a new enterprise bargaining agreement, which will replace the current agreement that is due to expire on 31 March 2012.”

Dr Hughes has provided consultancy services to organisations around the world including the World Health Organisation, and was the Commandant-Colonel of the Royal

New Zealand Army Nursing Corp and the �rst Professor of Nursing at the University of Auckland.

In announcing the appointment, Director-General Dr Tony O’Connell said Dr Hughes was renowned for her work in policy development, particularly in the �elds of nursing and mental health.

“Frances has played a major role in leadership in nursing in New Zealand and was instrumental in the development of government policy around nurse prescribing, primary health care and rural scholarship schemes, nursing workforce, nurse practitioners and tele-nursing,” he said.

Dr Hughes worked in the aftermath of the 2001 World Trade Centre terrorist attacks in New York and also trained nurses in the wake of the 2005 Boxing Day tsunami and last year’s Canterbury earthquakes, and was recently awarded a Fulbright New Zealand Senior Scholar Award for 2012.

Queensland Health announces new chief nurseNurse practitioners will deliver frontline clinical care in residential and community settings, thanks to an $18.7 million Federal Government program.

More than 30 projects involving NPs across Australia will be funded under the Nurse Practitioner – Aged Care Models of Practice Program to help bolster the role of NPs in the aged care sector.

Adelaide’s Resthaven Incorporated will receive more than $500,000 funding to employ a palliative care nurse practitioner who will support people in the end phase of the ageing process.

Some of the other funding recipients include the Menzies Research Institute Tasmania, La Trobe University, Royal College of Nursing ACT, Southern Cross Care, Illawarra Retirement and The Nurse Practitioner Acute Care Team.

The Australian College of Nurse Practitioners and the Australian Nursing Federation have both applauded the move as recognition of the vital work of NPs in delivering quality health care.

ACNP president Helen Gosby said the project would highlight the valuable contribution of NPs, which now number more than 600 across Australia.

“I think it’s the fact that they can see that NPs are a good model to be able to provide this care, I think it’s really good,” she said.

“This is an area often without resources and NPs will be able to provide care to a lot of these people in residential care and keep them out of hospital.”

ANF federal secretary Lee Thomas welcomed the roll out of the initiative.

“NPs are increasingly being called upon to provide frontline health services across all parts of the community,” she said.

In announcing the program, Mental Health and Ageing Minister Mark Butler said older people want to remain in their homes for as long as possible.

“The new nurse practitioner will improve end of life care and allow more people to die at their preferred place,” he said.

Mr Butler said the program would also provide new and extended career paths for aged care nurses.

“Delivering �exible training initiatives focused on improved clinical care will assist industry recruitment and retention and create attractive career paths in aged care.”
