MOB ED - Supporting a culturally safe health journey for First Nations families
Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Paediatric Care
Imagine an Emergency Department designed for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people… how would it look? how would the staff look? what conversations would they be having? how do we develop that? MOB ED is led and 100% staffed by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, mob caring for mob. This successful model demonstrates self-determination in health care, with the aim of creating culturally safe and responsive environments and practices that, in turn ensure the wellbeing and health of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community.

Managing Paediatric Challenging Behaviours – Development of the RCH Behaviour Support Profile Tool
Paediatric Educators
Dysregulated behaviours have been increasingly reported within hospital emergency departments and paediatric wards, with consequential challenges faced by treating staff. In response to the increasing incidence and to provide more informed care and better support these young patients, the staff at the Royal Children's Hospital have developed a Behaviour Support Profile Tool (BSP tool). The BSP tool documents some of the non-medical needs of young patients with clear detail on what strategies are effective and ineffective to the young person.

Amplifying the child’s voice when interests elide
Clinical Ethics
In this case-based presentation, we hope to consider the ethical issues arising from the disclosure of life-limiting diagnoses in the paediatric setting. We hope to consider how we might recognise parents with high anxiety wishing to control information flow, and support these families early and better, and then perhaps socialise this approach in institutions and in the wider community.

Behavioural insights into recognition and management of sepsis in NSW
Paediatric Safety & Quality
In early 2024 the Clinical Excellence Commissions revised all four sepsis pathways to align with the Sepsis Clinical Care Standard and advice from NSW Health experts. A human-centred design process used input from clinicians to improve the design, flow and content of the pathways. A statewide behavioural survey enabled us to explore and understand challenges and barriers in recognising and managing sepsis and use of the sepsis pathways. The presentation provides an overview of the methodology used, results and the lessons we learned along the way.

Paeds with a Wheeze: Improving Patient Flow through Nurse Led Stretching of Inhaled Salbutamol
Paediatric Emergency Care
The ‘Paeds with a Wheeze’ project evaluated whether Nurse Led Stretching of Inhaled Salbutamol reduces length of stay in pre-school aged children presenting to The Prince Charles Hospital Children's Emergency Department. Nurse Led Stretching of Inhaled Salbutamol is a pathway that optimises registered nurse’s scope of practice to perform detailed respiratory assessments on children presenting with a wheezing illness to determine when the next dose of salbutamol should be administered. This low-cost simple clinical initiative made a positive difference to patient flow, facilitating doctors and nurse practitioners to remain on the floor seeing acute, undifferentiated patients and reducing length of stay for pre-school aged children with an acute wheezing illness admitted to the Short Stay Unit.

Period and Pelvic Pain
Improving Value in Healthcare
Period and pelvic pain is a very common problem impacting on the lives of many teenagers. Many young people report that their pain symptoms are not validated, and they are left missing out on school and activities. There is evidence that repeated pain probably predisposes to chronic pain – thus failing to acknowledge and manage period and pelvic pain in teenagers is a missed opportunity to prevent a potential long-term health problem of chronic pelvic pain. This web conference will cover how understanding the factors that contribute to period and pelvic pain is important to optimally manage the symptoms.

Fracture clinic redesign with consumers
CHA Improving Value in Healthcare
This presentation will share the process evaluation within the quaternary paediatric children's hospital in Qld (QCH), including the tools used for consumer co-design (patient journey mapping) that led to the implementation of a new model of care. The inclusion and outcomes of simple “outcome measures that matter to patients” built in partnership with consumers to evaluate the new model of care, will also be discussed.

NEW NDIS Reforms
Rehabilitation Managers
The evolving landscape of the NDIS demands attention, not just for its immediate impact on disability services but for the broader consequences on associated sectors. Some of the NDIS community service may need to cut overheads in order to compensate for potential reductions in income due to the removal of temporary loadings and reducing the short-term cancellation period from 7 day to 2 days. It is unknown how this could impact the already limited NDIS community services and the flow on impact to your Hospital Based Rehab Services. The NDIS Reforms is a current topic of discussion, and it was felt that this would be a valuable topic to discuss across the managers and states
