Pay offer infuriates paramedics

Paramedics are “infuriated” at the state gov-

ernment’s latest pay offer as the dispute over

wages and conditions enters its 23rd month, the

Ambulance Employees Association Victoria says.

Premier Denis Napthine and Health Minis-

ter David Davis recently announced a new offer

including a $3000 sign-on payment for full-time

paramedics, a six per cent wage increase for

2014, with a three per cent wage rise for 2015

and another three per cent increase earmarked

for 2016.

AEAV general secretary Steve

McGhie labelled the new offer a

stunt designed to “con” the

public.

“It’s infuriated our

members even more

so,” he said.

“The members

are tired and they are

weary in regard to a

two-year campaign

and they are annoyed

it’s taken this long but

they are there for the long

haul.

“They’re in it to make sure

that paramedics in this state are

respected and paid appropriately in com-

parison to other states.

“They were tired and a little bit of campaign

fatigue had set in but with what the government

did last week with their public announcement, I

think it’s shaken them up a bit and they’ve come

out with all guns blazing.”

Mr McGhie said the union is concerned at the

proposed dates for the pay rises.

“We think they’re too far into the future,” he

said.

“They have got an expiry date on the pro-

posed agreement of November 2017 - that caus-

es us some concerns.

“The reason for that is the current agreement

expired on November 2012, so even though ef-

fectively they are portraying it as a three year

agreement it goes over a five year period.

“It’s a 12 per cent wage increase over five

years not over three years because they have

missed out on three years of wage increases ef-

fectively, because their last wage increase was

August 2011.”

Mr McGhie said the union also refuses to

agree to the government’s proposal to remove

union facilitation clauses from the

agreement.

“That means paramedics

having delegates represent

them at agreement meet-

ings and disciplinary

meetings and things

like that, trade union

training, all of those

things they want re-

moved,” he said.

Another main

sticking point is the gov-

ernment’s proposed rural

relieving model for para-

medics, Mr McGhie said.

“They want to be able to move

paramedics around rural areas of the state

just to fill vacancies, not by agreement, by com-

pulsory moving them, if they give them appropri-

ate notification,” he said.

“That could mean rural paramedics could be

sent hundreds of kilometres away from where

they would normally work, even kept away from

their family because of the type of roster they’ll

be sent to work on and we say there’s no agree-

ment to that.

“If people want to do it by agreement we’re

happy for that but not to make it compulsory

against every rural paramedic - our members are

just up in arms about it.”

London paramedic campaign to land Down Under

The London Ambulance Service will arrive on

Australian shores in September as it ramps up its

campaign to recruit Australian paramedics.

The ambulance service, one of the world’s

busiest which receives around 4000 calls a day,

hopes to interview and assess up to 245 Aus-

sie paramedics when it flies a team to visit Mel-

bourne, Sydney, Adelaide and Brisbane from

September 8-19.

The Australian visit comes after the service

announced earlier this year it wanted to recruit

Australian and New Zealand paramedics in a bid

to bridge its paramedic shortage.

“We’re looking to recruit para-

medics from Australia where

the skills and training

closely match those

in the UK,” service

operations direc-

tor Jason Killens

said in a state-

ment.

“We’ll be

in Sydney, Ad-

elaide, Mel-

bourne and

Brisbane for in-

terviews and as-

sessments but med-

ics need to apply now.”

Mr Killens said suc-

cessful candidates will experi-

ence fast-paced work in a range of

diverse settings.

“This month alone, we’ve treated patients

at music concerts in Hyde Park, Tour de France,

which came through London, and after a collision

between a barge and a river bus on the Thames,

and hot-weather related incidents amongst just

some of our thousands of calls.”

As part of its recruitment campaign, ‘London

- no ordinary challenge’, the service hopes to fill

about 250 vacancies for registered paramedics,

and is recruiting paramedics from Northern Ire-

land and Australia.

Australian paramedics who secure jobs with

the service will be required to complete a short

conversion course enabling them to treat patients

in the UK.

The service wants to employ more paramed-

ics to meet year-on-year increases in demand

and its campaign is also a move towards employ-

ing more registered health care professionals to

oversee patient care.

Paramedic candidates are being offered sup-

port with their application, visa and relocation

costs, while the service will also cover the Health

and Care Professions Council paramedic regis-

tration fee.

Verity Reinke is one former Aussie paramedic

who has joined the ranks of the service’s 3300

frontline staff at 70 ambulance stations across

620 square miles.

As one of the faces of the recruitment cam-

paign, Ms Reinke describes moving from Ad-

elaide to London as “an incredible change”.

“There are better opportunities for career

progression here than anywhere else and being

exposed to more diverse cases and more ex-

citing challenges is really improving my clinical

skills,” she said.

“Nothing can beat the experience of working

in this city - it’s busier, faster and more exciting

than anywhere else.”

The London Ambulance Service will visit

Sydney from September 8-9, Adelaide from 12-

13, Melbourne from 15-16 and Brisbane from

18-19.

Eighty graduate and experienced nursing

jobs will be created as part of 200 new positions

at Queensland’s Townsville Hospital this financial

year.

The hospital added 16 full-time equivalent

(FTE) nursing positions during 2013 to its 2500

nursing workforce and now plans to add an extra

80 nursing positions.

The employment boost comes after the

Townsville Hospital and Health Service cut 197

FTE positions in 2012 as part of a service rede-

sign.

The hospital and health service has now se-

cured funding for new services, and after adding

178 positions to its ranks in 2013, it plans to add

a further 200 jobs throughout 2014-15.

In a statement, the health service has con-

firmed around 80 of the new positions will be

graduate and experienced nurses.

“There are vacancies in a range of specialties

now, and the new services making up the 80 new

vacancies are sub-acute, paediatric intensive

care, paediatric oncology, short-stay day surgery

and operating theatres,” it states.

Chief executive Julia Squire said the increas-

es are funded and sustainable.

“It means there is more stability for staff,

more and better care for patients and growth for

the Townsville economy,” she said.

“That’s a three-way win - for patients, staff

and the wider community, and I am truly delight-

ed about that.”

Therapeutic Alliance and Mindfulness in Mental Health AssessmentsBy Glynis Thorp

As nurses how do we learn and teach thera-

peutic alliance? In fact can we teach it at all?

It is such an important part of a “helping” relation-

ship, it is difficult to get anywhere without it.

Carlat (2012) describes the therapeutic alli-

ance as a feeling that you should create over the

course of the diagnostic interview: a sense of

rapport, trust and warmth. It is thought that cre-

ating rapport is an art and that it can be difficult

to teach.

With the current trend of completing uni-

form assessments throughout the mental health

industry, clinicians need to be mindful that it is

important to be true to themselves so that their

personality is able to show through. If this does

not happen then they might appear to be rigid,

wooden and lacking warmth, which could hinder

the therapeutic alliance. So how does a nurse

learn how to do this?

One way is learning from observation and

then trialling your newfound skills. If you are for-

tunate enough to work with a variety of people

you can observe behaviours and then decide

if they promoted an alliance or if they were not

helpful in establishing rapport. Recently I ob-

served an experienced clinician who managed to

take notes and have a meaningful interview with

someone seeking assistance. I observed that the

person was able to take notes but also managed

to stop and listen to establish rapport before writ-

ing. They used an iPad and were thoughtful of all

of their behaviours including keeping their fingers

close to the keypad with no sound audible. They

also had a pro forma on their iPad, which then

only required them to write minimal information.

This was a very timely and effective way of han-

dling their workload and they had the written as-

sessment complete and ready to be sent back to

the referee immediately. Throughout the session

they attentively listened to every response being

sure to leave sufficient time for the person to re-

spond. Without disruption they also managed to

validate my presence by asking for my opinion

and seeking my advice. I felt included and that

I was an important contributor to this person’s

health recovery plan. I also held information that

may be critical to the success of the health plan

and was given the opportunity to mention these

things so they could be included in the SMART

(short, measurable, achievable, realistic and

time-bound) goals between the clinician and the

person seeking assistance.

There are considerable differences between

medical history taking and psychodynamic in-

terviewing. This relates to diagnosis and treat-

ment. Gabbard (2014) explains that a physician

evaluating a patient for appendicitis approaches

the interview with a clear mindset: diagnosis

precedes treatment. This can also be said for a

nurse whose responsibility it is to assess the pa-

tient. The dynamic psychiatrist or mental health

professional approaches the interview with the

understanding that the manner in which the his-

tory is taken may in itself be therapeutic. There is

undoubtedly some therapeutic action in listening

and accepting the patient’s life story and validat-

ing that the patient’s life has meaning and value.

One very important fact to be considered

by a clinician conducting an assessment is that

they are serving as a witness who is recogniz-

ing and grasping the emotional impact of what

has happened to the patient. The power of this


alone cannot be underestimated as many people

do not have someone to tell their story to or come

from environments where listening is not some-

thing that is done well. McHugh and Slavney

(1998) explain that every person has a story, and

every story has the capacity to teach something

about every one of us. There are as many stories

as there are lives and there are many stories with-

in each life. As a nurse you must be interested in

people’s stories, not only the technical aspects

of your role.

It is very important to be aware of one’s own

feelings during an interview. They can give clues

as to what reactions the person creates in oth-

ers. In order to be able to do all of this well, the

technique of mindfulness can not only be useful

to teach others, but it can also help with develop-

ing a therapeutic alliance with others if you are

the clinician.

Mindfulness as applied to mental health as-

sessments requires ‘mindful listening’. Mindful

listening requires that the health professional

make a choice to understand and empathise with

the patient. It is suggested that in mindful listen-

ing we put ourselves in the shoes of the person

who is talking to us and try to see the world from

their perspective. A strategy to help this is to

pause before we speak. Ideally, we should take

a few moments to pause and reflect on the ques-

tion and on how we want to answer. I have ob-

served this in prominent individuals who have to

face the media regularly. They are careful to think

before they speak which gives an impression of

thoughtfulness.

As mental health professionals, we must

continually strive to create a therapeutic alliance

with our patients.

Research shows suicide stigma exists in health sector

Well-presenting people who have survived

a suicide attempt have encountered dismissive

and negative attitudes in the health sector, ac-

cording to the results of new research.

SANE Australia, a national mental health

charity, and University of England research found

judgemental attitudes still exist among some al-

lied health professionals, nurses and doctors

when it comes to treating people who have at-

tempted suicide.

SANE Australia suicide prevention manager

Sarah Coker said the study showed some health

professionals had assumptions about how those

who have survived suicide should present.

“There were a few people who talked about

because they were actually quite articulate and

well-presented that they weren’t taken as seri-

ously,” she said.

“People thought - you can’t be that unwell,

you look fine, you’ve got a successful job and a

supportive family.

“Even though they were talking about feel-

ing suicidal or having recently attempted suicide,

they weren’t always then referred into a mental

health service or a hospital and they felt that they

weren’t taken seriously.

“So there’s almost a stigma that comes with

looking quite well even though internally you’re

not doing that well.”

Ms Coker said the results came as a surprise.

“This is recent research, this is people talking

about the last few years,” she said.

“Although I think there’s been a lot of pro-

gress, I think that there are still pockets out there

where people perhaps don’t get the care that

they should.

“Health services are very stretched and I think

everybody understands that but when somebody

has attempted suicide, that’s a time when people

really do need care and support and need to be

taken seriously.”

As part of the study, 31 people from across

Australia who have made an attempt on their life

were asked to reveal their experiences, any sup-

port, whether they had talked to their family and

friends about the attempt, and what helped or

hindered their recovery.

Eighty-seven per cent of participants said

they were diagnosed with at least one mental

illness while 15 reported one or more suicide

attempts and 11 reported multiple attempts

throughout their lives.

Triggers included symptoms of mental ill-

ness, a lack of professional support, being be-

reaved by suicide, and drug and alcohol use.

“There were lots and lots of examples where

people tried to access supports, usually at hospi-

tals where they had trouble actually either being

admitted in the first place or staying in as long

as they felt they needed - they felt they were dis-

charged too early,” Ms Coker said.

The research also challenged perceptions

that suicide is ‘a selfish act’, with many survivors

stating they made the attempt because they felt

they were a ‘burden’ and believed their family and

friends would be ‘better off’ without them.

Ms Coker said health professionals need to

be understanding of people’s pain and their ex-

periences when it comes to attempted suicide.

“I think that we need to reduce the stigma

associated with suicide, so that people are more

likely to go and get help and they feel that they

will be heard and helped in that situation,” she

said.

The New Zealand Nurses Organisation has

launched a petition calling for the government to

fund a one-year nurse entry to practice program

for all new graduate nurses.

The NZNO petition comes amid concerns

large numbers of graduate nurses are failing to

secure work in a clinical setting due to a limited

number of Nurse Entry to Practice (NEtP) pro-

gram places while employers are also seeking

candidates with experience.

In the latest ACE employment round only 233

of the 645 applicants secured jobs - leaving 412

new graduate nurses without jobs.

NZNO associate professional services man-

ager Hilary Graham-Smith said the petition,

launched on July 21, has already received thou-

sands of signatures and many supportive com-

ments.

“The comments tell the story both of new

grads who have been unsuccessful in applying

through ACE and struggling to find work and stu-

dents who are worried about their job prospects,”

she said.

“Parents, partners and family members have

also taken the opportunity to sign the petition and

express their concern for the future of the nursing

workforce.”

In the petition, Christchurch final year student

nurse Sasha Boiko said graduate nurses need to

be given a chance.

“Please make our voices heard - we can ad-

vocate, protect, prevent, manage and respect,”

she said.

“We need a chance to start growing in skills

and become not a drop in the ocean, but a river

full of strength, force and maintenance of human

life.”

Ms Graham-Smith said every new graduate

nurse should be supported and mentored in their

first year of nursing.

“NZNO believes this is vital,” she said.

“The first year in practice is a time of growing

skills and confidence and learning to practice as

an RN.”

Ms Graham-Smith said new graduates who

gain employment outside of the NEtP program

are often placed in unsafe clinical environments

without the support of an experienced RN - from

night duty on their own in rest homes with hospi-

tal beds to being the only RN on day shift respon-

sible for unregulated staff.

FGM Learning website launchedFemale genital mutilation (FGM) is estimated to affect more than 125 million girls and women around the globe. A new website provides a platform for Australia’s nurses, midwives and other health professionals caring for those affected by FGM.

By Karen Keast

The World Health Organisation (WHO) de-

scribes female genital mutilation (FGM) as

procedures that intentionally alter or cause injury

to the female genital organs for non-medical rea-

sons.

There are no health benefits

for girls and women but there

are health repercussions.

FGM procedures,

which are mostly car-

ried out on young girls

between infancy and

the age of 15, can

cause severe bleed-

ing and problems

with urinating, cysts,

infections and infertility

as well as childbirth com-

plications and an increased

risk of newborn deaths.

The procedures, which are

recognised as a violation of human rights,

mostly affect women in the 29 countries in Africa

and the Middle East where FGM is concentrated.

It’s estimated around 120,000 migrant wom-

en in Australia have undergone the practice in

their country of birth but FGM procedures are

also believed to be taking place on Australian

shores and by Australians overseas.

NSW community services minister Pru

Goward this year told ABC Radio there’s anecdo-

tal evidence to show the practice is “more com-

mon than the reports would suggest”.

Now, the Australian College of Midwives

(ACM) and the Australian College of Nursing

(ACN) have joined forces to launch a new website

for nurses, midwives and other health profession-

als who work with women and girls affected by,

and at risk, of FGM.

ACM professional officer Sarah

Stewart says FGM Learning -

www.fgmlearning.org.au -

aims to provide a national

site where nurses and

midwives can access

continuing profession-

al development and

learning resources

related to FGM.

It also enables

health professionals

to network with one an-

other, providing a forum

where they can share re-

sources and professional sup-

ports.

“The professional development area

includes resources that we find that have any-

thing to do with educating health professionals

about FGM - it could be anything from e-learning

capacities that health professionals can access

online through to conferences being held,” she

says.

“Then we’ve got learning resources that can

be accessed at any time - reports or journal ar-

ticles.

“Every time we come across a journal article

that we think will be of use to a nurse or a website

that has really good resources for midwives, those

sort of artefacts will be linked onto the page.

“The third area is general information and

that’s all sorts of artefacts from where you can go

and find a certain piece of legislation that would

be appropriate right through to fact sheets or

posters.”

Ms Stewart says the website brings together

a raft of information for health professionals.

“It’s important because there is a lot of concern about FGM and there’s a lot of re-ally good work across Australia being done in all areas, not just in health but in all areas certainly community groups as well.”

“But certainly in health with nursing and mid-

wifery and with medicine, the problem we have in

Australia is that people work in silo.

“Not only do we not know what’s going on

but we’re not very good at sharing either and

there’s no central point where health profession-

als can go.

“Hopefully this website will bring together all

these things that are going on across the coun-

try.”

The website, while still in its infancy, is de-

signed to highlight what resources exist and are

being developed as well as identifying any areas

of need and opportunities for collaboration.

Ms Stewart says the website aims to curate

learning resources as part of a wider, health sec-

tor collaboration.

“That is something we are particularly proud

of - that we’re working across organisations and

across state barriers to do something that can

facilitate this kind of collaboration is really quite

exciting,” she says.

“Also, it’s not a place where people can go to

say - I’m caring for this woman, what should I do?

“It’s not that kind of a clinical question and

answer site, it’s more about sharing the learning

resources so that people can go away and work

with them either to educate themselves.

“Or they might be wanting to use policies or

articles or research in their care or maybe they

are setting up a program for women.”

Ms Stewart says FGM Learning aims to pro-

vide nurses and midwives with a reliable knowl-

edge source to inform the care they provide to

FGM affected women and girls.

The end result is all about improved health

outcomes, she says.

“We want to provide the best care we can

and even if you only care for one woman with

FGM in 10 years - it’s such a personal thing, it can

have such a huge impact on women,” she says.

“You want to do the best job you can for that

woman.

“There’s the ongoing physical implications,

the psychological and spiritual and cultural - it’s

not just a quick injection.

“It’s an issue that impacts on every aspect of

the woman’s life.”
