Community pharmacists and GPs will work

with Royal District Nursing Service (RDNS)

nurses in a Victorian pilot project that aims to

improve medication self-management among

older patients.

The Quality Use of Medicines project will

target older people taking multiple medications

in a bid to reduce medication errors, hospital

admissions and re-admissions.

It comes as figures show more than 50 per

cent of medication errors take place during

care transitions and up to 15 per cent of hos-

pital admissions in older people are medication

related.

Pharmacy Guild Victorian branch president

Anthony Tassone said the project aims to im-

prove the medication reconciliation process.

“What they’ve found through research is

when a patient transitions care, so goes from

the hospital to the community when they’ve

been discharged, there is a risk of errors with

their medication or a discrepancy,” he says.

“They’ve found if a health professional,

let’s say a pharmacist, intervenes to provide a

medication reconciliation and reconciles what

they should be on based on the discharge and

the involvement of district nurses who do home

visits, they can reduce the rate of re-admis-

sions to hospital.”

The project will support GP referrals to

community pharmacists to access medication

reconciliation services, and encourage GPs to

work with patients and community pharmacists

to ensure GP records reconcile against pa-

tients’ records

It will also develop health literacy for older

patients on quality use of medicines and imple-

ment a re-call function six to 12 months after

the initial medication reconciliation to assess

any changes.

Mr Tassone said up to 100 patients in a

high-risk target group, who take more than seven

medications, will be the focus of the pilot but he

said details, including which pharmacies will be

involved, what geographic area the project will

cover, and when the pilot will begin, are still being

finalised.

He said the project is vital for older patients

and an important step forward for the pharmacy

profession.

“What it means is the opportunity to play a

specific role in using our skills as medicine ex-

perts to intervene for patient benefit, and hope-

fully be remunerated for our skills and expertise

in things that we do every day, but in a structured

and coordinated way that can be consistent and

ongoing,” he said.

“Also, it provides another opportunity to

work with other health professionals, doctors and

nurses, in a team environment to deliver great pa-

tient outcomes.”

The Health Innovation and Reform Council

(HIRC) recommended the project which has been

funded by the Victorian Department of Health

with in-kind contributions of staff through the

Pharmacy Guild of Australia Victorian branch and

the RDNS.

RDNS Victoria general manager Fiona Hearn

said new approaches are needed to support old-

er people living in the community, who are taking

more medications than ever before.

“RDNS’ home nursing and support services

are integral to the well-being of many thousands

of older people every day, especially in assisting

them to manage their medicines safely,” she said.

“The aims of this project are in line with our

commitment to investigate and implement new

practices which safely enhance the independ-

ence and capacity of older people.”

Ambulance tracking service launched

Queenslanders can now pinpoint almost ex-

actly where their paramedics and ambulances

are, all at the click of a button.

In an Australian first, the Queensland Ambu-

lance Service (QAS) has launched an online avail-

ability map in a bid to show the public real time

tracking of the state’s fleet of more than 1000

ambulances.

The tracking tool, running on the QAS web-

site via Facebook and Twitter, displays ambu-

lance locations in the far northern, northern,

central, north coast, Brisbane, south eastern and

south western regions of the state.

Directly linked to the Emergency Services

Computer Aided Dispatch system, it shows the

total number of vehicles available, and maps the

location of frontline operational response vehi-

cles and supervisor response vehicles.

It also details the number of busy vehicles as

well as how many are performing patient hando-

vers at hospitals but doesn’t display those vehi-

cles on the map due to patient confidentiality.

The tracking tool uses Integrated Real-Time

Operational Ambulance Management (iROAM)

software, developed by QAS and first launched

at the service three years ago.

Health Minister Lawrence Springborg said

the QAS is embracing technology and social me-

dia for the benefit of the public and better work-

force management.

“Government should be open and account-

able, and now for the first time anyone can see

exactly how many ambulances are available at a

given time across the state,” he said in a state-

ment.

“Families want to know that if they have an

emergency, an ambulance will be available and

this is now possible.

“If there is pressure on the ambulance ser-

vice, that information will also be freely available,”

he added.

“We promised at the election to restore ac-

countability and we also promised to revitalise

frontline services.”

QAS commissioner Russell Bowles said the

tracking tool should also put an end to any confu-

sion around ambulance availability.

“One of the biggest misconceptions is that

when there are ambulances dropping patients at

a hospital, there are none available to respond to

other emergencies,” he said.

“Use of the QAS social media stream has

more than doubled in the past six months. We

can use this tool to dispel some of the myths.”

Australia’s first allied health prescribing training

Thirteen physiotherapists and 10 pharma-

cists are participating in the nation’s first allied

health education and training program for pre-

scribing.

The Queensland University of Tech-

nology (QUT) has created the

Allied Health Prescribing

Training program as

part of a Queensland

Health initiative

that aims to in-

troduce models

of care featur-

ing allied health

prescribing.

It comes

after the final

report from the

Ministerial Task-

force on Health

Practitioner Expand-

ed Scope of Practice

this year outlined a num-

ber of evidence-based mod-

els of care that expand the scope of

practice of allied health professionals, in a bid

to address the community’s health care needs.

The report states allied health profession-

als working in full scope and extended scope

roles will not only be cost-effective but will also

reduce waiting times in emergency depart-

ments and for specialist and surgical appoint-

ments, improve patient flow, and maintain and

even boost patient satisfaction while achieving

positive clinical outcomes.

With the move to podiatry prescribing and

QUT’s prescribing course for podiatrists being

delivered for the first time this year, QUT was

also selected to develop the allied health train-

ing program that’s aligned to the NPS Medi-

cinewise Prescribing Competencies Frame-

work as part of the initiative.

Queensland Health, through the Allied

Health Profession’s Office of Queensland

(AHPOQ) has offered scholarship funding to

Queensland Health employees, who also had

to demonstrate support from within their hos-

pital and health service for the implementation

of the prescribing model as part of a research

trial.

Professor Lisa Nissen, the head of QUT’s

School of Clinical Sciences, says the training

is similar to a corporate education program,

not an award course, that’s been specifically

designed for the Queensland Health initiative.

“I have set it up like a course but we can’t

at this point give them an award, in the future

we would like to be able to give people credit

for having undertaken it,” she says.

“Because we are running it for the pur-

pose of the pilot for Queensland Health it’s

like a high level corporate education program

that has been mapped to the NPS competen-

cies.”

Professor Nissen says the program, which

she assisted in developing as part of an in-

terdisciplinary team of health professionals,

consists of two units - clinical therapeutics

for prescribers, and prescribing and quality

use of medicines.

A pioneering training program designed to enable allied health prescribing has been launched in Queensland. The initiative aims to pave the way for a radical transformation of how health care is delivered to the community. By Karen Keast

The program, a mixture of online learning

and interactive seminar teleconferences, also

involves 120 hours of learning in practice.

A former hospital pharmacist and cur-

rent Pharmaceutical Society of Australia (PSA)

Queensland branch president, Professor Nis-

sen says most participants are expected to

complete the program by March next year.

“We believe that we’ve created a very ro-

bust program that will create very well prepared

people and already it’s challenged the physi-

os,” she says.

“It’s challenged them because they have

had to look at drugs other than the handful that

they thought they’d have to.

“That’s what it’s supposed to do - it’s sup-

posed to challenge people to think about the

accountability and responsibility that comes

with being a prescriber and we don’t apologise

for that.”

A Department of Health spokesperson

says the program will enable the group of allied

health professionals to undertake prescribing

trials within a research framework, subject to

approval by a Human Research Ethics Com-

mittee.

“All allied health professionals undertaking

prescribing as part of a trial will have an iden-

tified medical officer who will provide support

and supervision,” the spokesperson says.

“When prescribing is currently not part of

the scope of practice of the allied health pro-

fession, credentialing will be required by the lo-

cal hospital and health service.

“Extending the scope of practice for allied

health professionals may be pursued where it

enhances the patient journey or improves pa-

tient experience and will relate to specific con-

texts.”

Professor Nissen says physiotherapists will

trial prescribing in emergency departments in

the area of musculoskeletal conditions, where

the evidence for practice is strong, while phar-

macists will trial prescribing across a range of areas.

“It’s very obvious sort of scope of practice

in emergency departments for physiotherapists

where you are looking at not your high trauma

categories but sort of those cases that take

quite a bit of time in emergency,” she says.

“They could be dealt with by people who

have skill sets specifically to manage that kind

of presentation, acknowledging that if they

could add prescribing for things, like analge-

sics, that that could free up spaces in emergen-

cy departments for some of those other cases

to come through.

“For pharmacy, it’s a different sort of mix

and we have previously piloted pharmacists

prescribing inside Queensland Health in pre-

admission clinic and also in a HIV outpatients

clinic on the Gold Coast.

“Pharmacists are more aligned to medi-

cines’ use as a profession, you can see areas

like emergency for chronic disease patients,

pre-admission clinic, chronic disease outpa-

tient clinics, some in oncology, geriatrics - so

it’s a broader mix of models of care that phar-

macy is interested in prescribing a pilot model

for.”

Professor Nissen hopes the training pro-

gram will form the basis for future courses in

allied health prescribing.

“We intend on integrating these courses

into our postgrad program so that people could

do them as actual enrolled units for award -

that is our plan,” she says.

“In a way, it provides the opportunity for

us to consolidate things that we’ve learnt and

developed in other areas and tailor them to the

allied health space.

“It could be speech pathologists, it could

be dietitians, psychologists, diabetes educa-

tors,” she says.

“There’s an eclectic mix that are on the

cusp of wanting to play in this space and we

need to have a robust course that can accom-

modate any of those.”

The Australian Nursing and Midwifery Feder-

ation (ANMF) has launched a new range of online

CPD courses covering cardiology, endocrinology,

gastroenterology, immunology and neurology.

The Body Systems Training Room (BSTR)

features more than 30 courses on anatomy, phys-

iology, disease and disease management, along

with medical procedures.

ANMF federal education officer Jodie Davis

said the new training room is designed to pro-

vide an affordable and practical option for nurses

and midwives working to meet the minimum of

20 hours of continuing professional development

(CPD) required each year for national registration.

Ms Davis said with more than 230,000 mem-

bers spread across a range of roles and geo-

graphical settings, it was a major challenge to

provide high quality and affordable CPD services.

“Our online training rooms allow nurses and

midwives to undertake their CPD training without

the costs of time associated with attending face

to face training,” she said.

“Courses provide an easy understanding of

complex body systems, medical and health care

concepts and scenarios, and courses include

audio narrations and interactive quizzes shared

through a story-board format.”

The latest training room adds to the ANMF’s

three separate professional development training

rooms.

It also has an Aged Care Training Room

(ACTR) for nurses working in residential or com-

munity aged care with 60 learning activities,

ranging from medication management and nutri-

tion for older people to culturally and linguistically

diverse older people, post-traumatic stress disor-

der and Parkinson’s Disease.For the full article visit NCAH.com.au

Parkinson’s nurse covers medication managementBy Karen Keast

P roper medication management can make a

world of difference to someone with Parkin-

son’s disease, just ask Mary Jones.

The registered nurse of 53 years, who has

spent 16 years specialising in Parkinson’s and

movement disorders, knows how important it is

to get medication right but she says it’s an area

where confusion often reigns.

“This would be the most

complex medication regime,”

she says.

“For the patient who

only sees a GP or even

a neurologist, who is

not specialising, the

importance of the

medication is just

unbelievably critical

unlike any other condi-

tion I have worked with

in nursing in all of those

years.

“It’s when you take them

and how you take them and at

what times of the day.

“It’s a very unusual schedule that the pa-

tients are usually on - it’s complex but do it

right and their quality of life will improve dra-

matically.”

Ms Jones is just one of a handful of Par-

kinson’s nurses around Australia working in

private practice.

She will speak on medication management

at Parkinson’s Victoria’s first ‘Living well with

Parkinson’s’ seminar, as part of Parkinson’s

Awareness Month, featuring some of Austral-

ia’s leading experts in the disease, being held

from September 11-12 in Melbourne.

“The emphasis is that the patients’ knowl-

edge is empowerment - that they need to know

what their medications are, when they should

take them, why they are taking them.

“They need to be really informed.”

Originally from New Zealand, Ms Jones

works with Victorian neurologist Richard Pep-

pard, supporting patients from diag-

nosis to advanced management

and has a particular interest

in deep brain stimulation

surgery.

Ms Jones, who

started the first multi-

disciplinary clinic for

movement disorders

at Eastern Health in

1998 and was the first

Parkinson’s nurse in

the community in 2000,

says she loves the variety

of working as a Parkinson’s

nurse.

“I call it a designer disease

because every person is totally different

in how they react to the medications and what

medications they need,” she says.

“I also find that for people with a chronic con-

dition, they are an amazing group of people who

really, really appreciate the support of a Parkin-

son’s nurse because it’s so rare that they have

access to it.

“It’s also the excitement of seeing the ability to

change someone’s life because often that’s what it

does.”

The seminar will feature streams for health pro-

fessionals as well as people living with Parkinson’s.

The Australian Nursing and Midwifery Federa-

tion (ANMF) has rejected the Australian Medical As-

sociation’s (AMA) push for a $6.15 GP co-payment.

The peak body for nurses and midwives is

standing firm against the introduction of all co-pay-

ments despite the AMA pushing for a co-payment

where concession card holders and children under

16 are exempt.

The AMA’s model also calls for aged care and

home visits, along with treatment for mental health

and chronic disease, to be excluded from the co-

payment fee.

The proposal comes as Prime Minister Tony

Abbott told media the government will continue

to forge ahead with its $7 co-payment, which ex-

empts concession card holders and children after

their first 10 visits.

ANMF federal secretary Lee Thomas said the

introduction of any form of co-payment for ba-

sic health services will hurt communities nation-

wide.

“We support the AMA’s position that there

be no cuts to the Medicare patient rebate, but

the ANMF’s view on co-payments remains un-

changed – we strongly oppose any form of a

user pays scheme for basic health services,” Ms

Thomas said in a statement.

“The AMA, like the government, talks about

sending a ‘price signal’ but out-of-pocket costs

are already far too high and the introduction of

co-payments will only shift further cost burden on

to individual patients – and that’s not the answer.

Property Club investors not paying tax?

How am I going to tell

Tony?

Over the last 20 years we’ve shown thousands of Australians how to invest in property without paying tax

The Property Club has over 80,000 members in Australia who use money they’d normally

pay to the taxman, to buy investment property. The late Kerry Packer famously said “you

can’t get rich paying tax”. He was right. The Property Club can show you how you can buy

mally pay to the taxman.

Just like rent, tax money that you don’t have to pay is dead money. We’ve helped thousands

of Australians to buy investment property and not pay unnecessary tax.

ing room also offers

evidence of partici-

pation in the CPD via

an NMBA compliant

portfolio or certifi-

cate of completion.

ANMF Federal

Education Officer Jodie

Davis said “our online

training rooms allow nurses

and midwives to undertake their

CPD without the costs of time and ex-

pense associated with face-to-face training,

whilst still ensuring they receive quality con-

tent”. Ms Davis also said “although we are

a member organisation we have made our

training available to all Australian nurses and

midwives, in any geographical location so our

nursing and midwifery workforce remains one

of the world’s most professionally trained now

and into the future”.

The ANMF recently launched their newest

training room, the Body Systems Training Room

(BSTR) which features more than 30 courses

on anatomy and physiology, pathophysiology

and medical procedures. Courses provide an

easy understanding of complex body systems,

medical and health care concepts and sce-

narios and courses include audio narrations

and interactive quizzes shared through a story-

board format. With over 30 courses currently

available, these can be purchased individually,

within a tailored pack or as a complete library.

For nurses and midwives purchasing the com-

plete library they will also receive any

new courses added to the train-

ing room free during their 12

month subscription.

To complete the

launch of this inno-

vative website, the

ANMF is offering all

members (including

NSWNMA and QNU)

an inaugural discount

on the already cost ef-

fective prices, a further

saving of up to 20% will

be available until 19/9/14.

The three other CPD train-

ing rooms the ANMF offer include

the Online Clinical Simulations for Nurses

and Midwives which offers 3D simulated learn-

ing for clinical procedures, The Aged Care

Training Room (ACTR) a one-stop-shop for

aged care and community care nurses and

the Continuing Professional Education website

(CPE) with over 50 self-directing learning tuto-

rials.

There is no need to look any further than

the ANMF for your CPD needs. Choose your

preferred training room today or utilise them all!
