From The Desk of the Chief Executive officer
‘To improve is to change, to be perfect is to change o�en’ - Winston Churchill
region partner in a more collaborative manner. SWH is now involved in a number of regional collaborations including: ∎ SWARH (IT Alliance) ∎ Western Alliance (Research Alliance) ∎ Strengthening Health Services
Collaborative (sharing corporate services) ∎ Corangamite Health Collaborative ∎ Medical Workforce Collaborative ∎ Barwon South West Regional
Integrated Cancer Service Cancer Centre Update It is pleasing to report that the South West Regional Cancer Centre (SWRCC) has finally commenced construction. This $30m project is due for completion in August 2016. Associated with this project is the construction of a 140 space multi-storey car park which is due for completion in December 2015. I realise that this project has created pressure on car parking in the health service precinct but I am heartened by the strong staff support of the ‘park and ride’ service located at the Showgrounds. Keep up the good work! JOHN F KRYGGER Chief Executive Officer
Changing Political Landscape Since my last newsletter we have a new Federal Health Minister (The Hon. Sussan Ley) who has been tasked with the responsibility of implementing new health policy. Amongst her immediate challenges is the establishment of Primary Health Networks to replace Medicare Locals (effective from 1 July 2015) and ongoing attempts to reduce the costs associated with the Medicare Benefit Scheme. Staff would be aware of the attempts to introduce a GP co-payment and other ‘price signals’ which essentially transfer costs to the patient directly or to State funded hospital emergency departments. It will be of considerable interest to SWH how these changes finally come in to being and the impact that they will have on our health service. Increasing Regional Role I have been highlighting for some time the increasing role that SWH now plays (and is expected to play) beyond our immediate catchment boundary. This is a position that I believe will further expand as a result of our increased specialisation and Workforce recruitment advantage. It is also a policy position of the Department of Health and Human Services that all health services in the

Human Resources
In 2014 SWH were one of seven
Victorian Health Services to Pilot a
Supporting Patients to be
Smokefree ABCD approach
project.
In 2015 SWH is rolling this project
out across inpatient and outpatient
services.
Research shows that 1 in every 33
conversations that a health worker
has with a client regarding
smoking, will result in a successful
QUIT attempt.
Currently education sessions are in
progress at the Warrnambool acute
campus and a Supporting Patients
to be Smokefree assessment &
care tool is being trialled.
Smoking cessation TRAK referrals
can be sent for inpatients requiring
smoking cessation support.
In April Legislation will be passed
banning smoking within 4 metres of
the entrance to any Victorian
Hospital or Community Health
Service.
It is important for all staff to be
mindful that SWH has a Smokefree
policy which prohibits smoking in all
SWH buildings and outdoor area’s
within SWH boundaries. This
policy has been effective since
2006 and applies to staff, visitors
and patients.
Staff smoking cessation support is
available in the form of cost free
nicotine replacement therapy and
support from Community Health
Smoking Cessation Clinic.
Members of the public can access
smoking cessation services at
Warrnambool Community Health by
contacting reception for an
appointment. No referrals
necessary. The Smoking
Cessation Service is a free service.

SUPPORTING PATIENTS
TO BE SMOKEFREE MEAL ENTERTAINMENT & ACCOMMODATION
BENEFIT ANNUAL FEE
A reminder to all staff who par�cipate in the
Meal Entertainment/Accommoda�on Benefits: -
the annual fee of $200 will be deducted from the
pay fortnight ending on Sunday 12 April 2015 (ie
deducted from the payday on Wednesday 15
April).
END OF FBT YEAR and IMPORTANT SALARY
PACKAGING CHANGE: The end of the current
Fringe Benefit Tax (FBT) year (1 April to 31 March)
is again fast approaching.
Human Resources/Pay Office staff are currently
finalising and reconciling deduc0ons, contac0ng
staff to ensure all available amounts are u0lised,
calcula0ng grossed-up amounts for Employee
Payment Summaries (Group Cer0ficates), etc
For the 2015/2016 FBT year (commencing from
the payday on 15 April 2015) – all staff will have
a slightly increased amount of salary packaging
available each fortnight. (an increase from
$333.70 to the new amount of $346.54).
This is a $12.84 per fortnight increase is due to
having 27 pay periods in the last FBT year; and us
rever0ng to the usual 26 pay periods. (therefore
the same amount for the year equates to a higher
amount for each fortnight or pay period).
Further informa0on or clarifica0on are available
from Human Resources or Pay Office staff.
2015 “People Ma6er” STAFF SURVEYS
In early May 2015, the staff survey that must be
undertaken by all public health services, agencies
and hospitals every two (2) years will be made
available for staff to complete.
This survey is designed to measure staff
percep0ons of our organisa0on’s culture and
opera0ons. It is also an important part of our
quality management and accredita0on processes.
An online “link” to a website will be made
available for those employees who wish to submit
their survey electronically; and hard copy surveys
will also be circulated for those who would prefer
to complete this format or who do not have
access to the web link. It is important to note
that confiden0ality of responses is assured.
Whilst par0cipa0on is voluntary – we would once
again encourage ALL staff to complete the surveys
as accurately and honestly as possible to
demonstrate the posi0ve aspects of working at
South West Healthcare and provide evidence
regarding things we do well; but also to address
any concerns expressed by staff and iden0fy areas
in which we need to further improve.
Further informa0on regarding this important staff
survey process will be made available to all staff
and departments over the next few weeks.
EASTER/ANZAC DAY 2015
Easter public holidays this year fall on Friday 3
April; Saturday 4 April; SUNDAY 5 APRIL and
Monday 6 April; with Anzac Day on SATURDAY 25
April.
Although the public holiday penal0es and
en0tlements are rela0vely complex, the usual
arrangements will apply under most awards/EBAs.
Easter Sunday is a NEW public holiday this year
and as such will aHract addi0onal penal0es for
those staff who work weekends.
Department Heads and staff are reminded to get
their 0mesheets and other payroll documents in
as early as prac0cable in the week prior to Easter
to assist Pay Office processing; but no later than
12 noon on Tuesday 31 March.
CORRECT COMPLETION OF TIMESHEETS FOR THIS
PERIOD: Given the complexity of so many Awards/
EBAs and four (4) public holidays in one pay period
– it would be greatly appreciated if all staff and
department heads could assist by ensuring that
the 0mesheets are completed according to the
following principles:
*** IF STAFF ARE ROSTERED OFF (ie not a day that
they are required to work) ON THE DAY – then
nothing should be recorded and the line on the
0mesheet should be LEFT BLANK.
*** IF STAFF ARE ROSTERED TO WORK AND
PRESENT ON THE DAY (ie working rostered hours)
then the start 0me, finish 0me & hours of work
should be marked but please do NOT mark that it
is a public holiday.
*** IF STAFF WOULD USUALLY WORK BUT ARE
HAVING AN ADDITIONAL DAY OFF – then the line
should be marked as “Public Holiday” with the
total of hours that would normally have been
worked but NO start or finish 0mes.
If everyone is able to comply with the above –
there will not be confusion about whether
someone is actually present at work, rostered off,
having an extra or ‘granted’ day off, etc – and pay
errors will be reduced to a minimum.
Thankyou to everyone in an�cipa�on of their
efforts in rela�on to this process.
CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
(CPD) PAYMENTS
For those Awards or EBAs that provide for regular
lump sum payments for Con0nuing Professional
Development (CPD) – these are to be paid in the
pay period ending 26 April 2015 (payday on
Wednesday 29 April 2015). As these are taxable
payments, eligible staff may wish to have a
corresponding once-off deduc0on to their meal
entertainment/accommoda0on card. (forms are
available from the Pay Office)
On the 7th and 8th of January, the new Mental Health Complaints Commissioner – Lynne Coulson Barr and her Principal Advisor Bee Mitchell-Dawson visited Mental Health Services in Camperdown and Warrnambool. This was the first time the Commissioner had visited the South West since the implementation of the Mental Health Act 2014. The pair spent time with our CEO, as well as our community mental health service, Extended Care Inpatient Unit, Acute Inpatient Unit and included a tour of ED and Paediatric departments. The Commissioner spoke with staff, consumers and carers about the role of the MHCC. During the visit, the Star Beat Choir entertained residents, staff, the Commissioner and Principle Advisor with original songs written by the choir. Lynne Coulson Barr is Victoria's first Mental Health Complaints Commissioner and is committed to working with consumers, carers, families and services to ensure that complaints are seen as an opportunity to improve public mental health services for all Victorians. The Mental Health Complaints Commissioner is an independent specialist statutory body established under the Mental Health Act 2014 and deals with complaints about Victorian public mental health services.
DynaMed Awareness Program With the collabora0on with the educa0onal staff, EBSCO
and the library, we offered a dynamic learning experience
to our staff and medical students and increase their
awareness of DynaMed.
With the recent launch of the new DynaMed mobile
applica0on, the Stan Carroll library took the opportunity
to host two days of in house training led by EBSCO expert
presenters. DynaMed is a clinical reference tool which provides point of care content and
resources. Having a vigorous evidence-based prac0ce approach, the clinical decision tool
helps clinicians quickly find relevant diagnoses, treatment, prognosis and relevant
guidelines.
About 90 staff members and 22 Deakin Medical Students from across South West
Healthcare took part in one of many informa0on sessions culmina0ng in an evening where
clinicians downloaded and tested out the app on their own devices.
Staff members also had the opportunity to par0cipate in the DynaMed Challenge run by
the library. The lucky winners are Gavin FleH and Vikki Hoy taking away Coles Myer giO
cards for their efforts.
If you missed out on these training sessions and want to know more about DynaMed, or
require assistance sePng up the app for yourself, please don’t hesitate to contact your
friendly library staff in the Stan Carroll library.
Library News Mental Health Services
Influenza 2015 – News Flash
Flu vaccine stocks for the public immunisation program in Australia have been delayed for more than seven weeks. Vaccine should be available from the middle of April 2015. Staff will be notified when the vaccine is available.
Warrnambool staff will be able to access the vaccine through SW Medical Clinic & mobile rounds.
Arrangements are in place for staff at Camperdown, Lismore & Macarthur. Further details will become available once the vaccine has been received. SWH staff working at the Hamilton and Portland Hospitals is able to access their influenza vaccination as per the respective hospital staff program. SWH would like acknowledge the support of both hospitals in providing our staff influenza vaccinations.
Please remember the importance of having your flu shot. There is a risk you may be
exposed to, and transmit the disease to co-workers, vulnerable patients and their
family. Maintaining a level of immunity in the HCW population ensures this risk of
transmission is minimised.

Primary & Community Health Services
ORAL HEALTH PROMOTION South West Dental Service has received funding from DHSV to run the
Smiles 4 Miles Program.
Our oral health team presented “Smiles 4 Miles” training to Early
Childhood Development staff from kindergartens, preschools and child
care centres in the Warrnambool and Moyne regions. Smiles 4 Miles
works to improve children’s oral health by encouraging early
childhood services to promote a healthy environment using the
three key messages: Drink Well, Eat Well, Clean Well.
MANIFOLD PLACE Community Health services at Manifold Place, Camperdown, have been going through an encouraging growth phase and will provide increased services and opportunity for the Camperdown community. Nikita is our full time Health Promotion Officer is focussing on nutrition, physical activity and mental health. Kaylene is implementing the Residential in Reach program that aims to decrease hospitalisations and length of stay amongst aged care residents. Kimberley is our Allied Health Assistant working to reduce the impact of chronic illness particularly with diabetic clients. A new office area accommodates current and visiting staff;
ensuring additional rooms are free for consultations, meetings
and client visits. This new area provides the opportunity for
visiting SWH staff to utilise the space ad hoc. If you are
visiting a client or are in Camperdown and need a space to
work please drop by or contact us and we will be happy to
have you ‘hot desk’ at Manifold Place. We are eager to
welcome all SWH staff and look forward to a collaborative and
united work place.
Above: Kaylene Baird, Kimberley Carty and Nikita Wheaton have all joined us recently.
MACARTHUR
Telehealth Macarthur Community Health is introducing Telehealth options for Dietetics clients. This will be the first of visiting clinical services to provide this service. The benefits include: the client can decide when they wish to see the Dietitian rather than just the day they visit Macarthur and also reduces the travel component for the clinician. Currently the client has only one option at Macarthur & this often clashes with other appointments thus limiting their choice. Macarthur Community Health has set up a dedicated telehealth room that will be available for clients to use. This will include telehealth to clinicians based at SWH Warrnambool campus as well as specialist services both in Warrnambool, Hamilton & beyond. This will considerable reduce the time required by clients to travel to specialist appointments thus reducing stress & anxiety as well as cost. Our clients are often aged with multiple health issues & are reliant on others to assist with travel. Our aim is to provide the right service, at the right time and at the right place. Telehealth is an exciting initiative that meets all these criteria.
Walk the Block Macarthur Community Health will be participating in “Walk the Block” initiative on Thursday 19 March. Walk the Block is a workplace health initiative by Victoria Walks, aimed at combating the dangers of a sedentary lifestyle. “Sitting is the new public health enemy’, says Dr Ben Rossiter, Executive Officer of Victoria Walks. According to health experts, sitting could be as dangerous as smoking. There is growing evidence to show that prolonged sitting is linked to obesity, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, some cancers and premature death.
BOWEL CANCER PREVENTION PROJECT A project focussed on preventing bowel cancer has begun at South West Healthcare. The second leading cause of death from cancer in Australia, bowel cancer has touched many in south west Victoria. The National Bowel Cancer Screening Program is currently distributing a free test to eligible people without obvious symptoms between 50 to 74 years olds. The test (called a faecal occult blood test – FOBT) is easy to use and has been proven to be effective in detecting small amounts of blood in faeces, possible signs of growths or polyps in the bowel before they develop into cancer or in their early stages of the disease. If detected early, over 90% of these cancers can be avoided or cured. The Bowel Cancer Prevention Project at South West Healthcare, funded for two years by the Department of Health and Human Services, will look at issues of bowel cancer screening and follow up for the community in Warrnambool, Corangamite and Moyne shires. The project team from the Primary and Community Services Division, Craig Fraser, Catherine Loria and Margie Morrice, are working with medical experts, including local physicians, doctors and other health professionals to find ways of encouraging eligible people to do the test and managing follow up colonoscopy for people who get a positive test. Only 35% of people currently complete the national test, which means we have many people in the community not being screened. The project will also focus on raising awareness in the community of the disease and ways to prevent it including screening, lifestyle and diet.

Subacute Redesign – RIGHT patient in the RIGHT place at the RIGHT time
Phase 2 of this work has now commenced aimed to streamline the referral, intake and assessment processes for current patients streaming to subacute services (both admitted and home based). This will assist in reducing the confusion for patients and staff, and reduce the current duplication of effort.
Patient Flow Redesign This work, assisted by Denis O’Leary, has introduced earlier start times for the Pathology and Radiology departments which is assisting with patient flow both from the Emergency Department (ED) to the wards, and for from the wards to home. LAN paging (messages to pagers) from the wards: Now that the communication from wards to the medical Interns has improved with the introduction of LAN paging, others are keen to get on board. We are currently working to expand this ability to include the clinical support staff / clinical educator’s pagers so that the communication between students and their support staff is more streamlined. Releasing Time to Care – Productive Ward program coming to Merindah Lodge Camperdown Staff at Merindah Lodge, with the help of facilitator, Kerry Henderson, have made some great improvements to their working environment with their Well Organised Ward work – reducing staff time wasted in trying to find things, and therefore releasing more time to care for their clients. The process is called 5S: 1=Sort, 2=Set in order, 3=Shine, 4=Standardise, 5=Sustain See the great before and after photos below to demonstrate this work.
National Standard 6: Clinical Handover –
Nurse Unit Managers will be starting to discuss with their staff the move towards Introducing a bedside component to all the shift handovers, not just the AM to PM shift which it is the case now. Having this component across all handovers will improve patient involvement and patient safety e.g. reduce the number of medication incidents that are not picked up at these handovers with the current practices. Get ready for auditing- all handover audits due this month! Endoscopy Redesign Marg Bull commenced in February to lead the 6-month Endoscopy Redesign improvement work. This work is part of the larger 2-year Bowel Cancer Prevention project run by SWH Primary and Community Health, aimed at increasing participation in national bowel cancer screening. With the predicted rise in demand for colonoscopy as a result of this work, it is now time to focus on improving the process for people requiring colonoscopy.
Redesigning Care
New Education, Research and Workforce Development Unit We welcome Barbara Moll, who has accepted the position of Manager Education, Research and Workforce Development.

For all post graduate students commencing study in 2015, the Education services are available to support you through this time.
Students It is early in the academic year and as a teaching hospital we are already very busy with students across all clinical disciplines. We will be hosting nursing, medical, dental, pharmacy, health information and allied health students. In addition we have VETIS and VCAL students from Brauer College undertaking placements in the Service Development directorate as part of their Certificate III in Health Assistance as part of the Greater South Coast Health Articulation project. We have also hosted trainees from Warrnambool City Council completing their Certificate III in Allied Health Assistance. Work experience for learners from our local schools gives young people an insight into the careers in health, both as clinicians and in the wide range of support services we provide. The support from supervisors in the workplace for students is vital for ensuring we have a role in developing the future workforce. We are very proud of the excellent feedback we receive from students.
eLearning SOLLe is our current system for staff eLearning and records of education and training. New staff are issued with log in details and enrolled on core mandatory training. The SOLLe calendar informs staff of upcoming education and allows you to enroll directly into the course. All staff are reminded they must discuss the appropriate course with their manager and complete the appropriate documentation.
Avoid a Code Grey situation South West Healthcare is committed to improving the safety and security of staff by supporting the prevention of violence and aggression, enhanced responses to Code Grey calls and training for hospital and security staff An introductory eLearning program, on managing violence and aggression in the workplace (SWITCH) is available to staff through SOLLe. SWITCH is about shifting our thinking, attitude and actions to maintain optimal safety within our workplace. By acknowledging the experience of the consumer, client or patient, and understanding what triggers the emotion that drives aggressive actions, we can promote a greater opportunity for a safer work environment for staff. Frontline staff are encouraged to complete this program as it incorporates many principles for recognizing and de-escalating potential situations that can lead to aggression. Advanced SWITCH is face to face session for staff who are mandated to undertake this training e.g. mental health staff, Code Grey tea, Clinical Co-ordinators as well as nursing staff. You need to compete the eLearning package to be able to enroll on a face to face session through SOLLe.

A one-day face-to-face workshop for supervisors of entry-level health professional
learners.
WHAT IS EXPECTED OF PARTICIPANTS? ∎ That you attend the training day and make every effort to apply what you have
learned. ∎ That you participate in the evaluation by completing all 3 parts:
⇒ The baseline data at the time of registration, or on the day of training. This
collects items such as your discipline, your experience, your organisation.
⇒ An evaluation of the workshop, at the conclusion of the training day.
⇒ A follow-up survey, 3 months after the training day. This survey will be
conducted by the Department of Health and will be available in a variety of
formats including paper based, electronic and telephone interview. It is an
evaluation of the training and its relevance in the workplace – not of you or
your ability as a supervisor or clinician. Findings will be used to improve the
training opportunities for supervisors.
Foundational level training is suitable if you are new to supervising students, if you
“buddy” with students as part of your work, or if you haven’t had any previous training in
supervision. It includes basic learning styles, adult learning principles, feedback, skills
teaching and recognising potential problems.
Intermediate level training should be your choice if you supervise more than one
student, if you are responsible for the assessment of students, if you have had previous
training, or have been supervising students regularly for a number of years. It covers
problem solving, communication, underperforming students and assessment in more
detail.
