The University of the Sunshine Coast (UniSC), partnering with Lutheran Services, proudly presents the first in our series of Lunchbox Lectures 

Infection Control in Aged Care 

Date and Time: Wednesday, 12 October 2022. 11am – 12.30pm

Location: UniSC Gympie, 71 Cartwright Road, Gympie 4570

A FREE EVENT

Importance of infection control and key prevention strategies in residential aged care.

About this Event

3^rd year nursing students will undertake a final clinical placement at Lutheran Services Cooinda Aged Care prior to completion of their degrees. The Transition to Practice Program is supported by a series of seminars on aged-related topics to be presented by academics and industry experts to assist the students in their chosen career path.

The Lunchbox Lectures are available to everyone and will allow you to learn how UniSC and Lutheran Services wish to support the development of the Aged Care sector in the future as well as strengthen your knowledge of key age-related health topics.

Topic 1: Risk assessment and ethical decision making in infection prevention and control. Residents of aged care communities are more vulnerable when exposed to germs with an increased risk of infections. The elder person’s ability to fight infection is compromised, therefore a risk assessment of infections is vital as are the decisions made to minimise the possibility of infections to keep these valued members of our society safe.

Presenter: Matt Mason is a Lecturer and Academic Lead with UniSC. He has a Bachelor of Nursing, a Masters in Rural Health and a Masters of Advanced Practice in Infection Control. Matt’s interests are infection prevention, infectious diseases, emergency management and importantly, clinical governance where he perceives a changing role due to the increase in privatisation of public services in Australia.

Topic 2: Understanding infection control; principals and policies in the residential aged care facility

This presentation will share information on the importance of correct hand hygiene and donning and doffing of personal protective equipment. Understanding of relevant infection control polices in aged care is imperative along with knowledge of the Communicable Diseases Network Australia (CDNA) guidelines

Presenter: Sherri Garrad is the Acting Clinical Manager of Lutheran Services Cooinda Aged Care. She is a clinical nurse who is currently completing her Infection Prevention and Controls lead course (IPC Lead) through the Department of Health and Aged Care.

As a consortium partner in the End of Life Directions for Aged Care (ELDAC)(link is external) project, AHHA is pleased to be offering this free End of Life Law for Clinicians (ELLC) webinar for health professionals across Australia.

This interactive webinar is about the law relating to end of life decision-making and will explore, through a clinical case study, some of the legal issues that can arise in end of life and palliative care practice.

Legal topics may include capacity and consent to medical treatment, substitute decision-making, providing pain relief, and futile or non-beneficial treatment.

End of Life Law for Clinicians (ELLC)(link is external) is funded by the Australian Government Department of Health under the Public Health and Chronic Disease Grant Program. It is administered by the Australian Centre for Health Law Research(link is external), Faculty of Business and Law, Queensland University of Technology (QUT), in partnership with the Faculty of Health, QUT.

The webinar will be delivered by Penny Neller, National Palliative Care Projects Coordinator at the Australian Centre for Health Law Research and clinical co-presenter Dr Paresh Dawda, Director and Principal of Prestantia Health, General Medical Practitioner, academic and researcher.

For further information about End of Life Law for Clinicians’ free online training modules for health professionals, see this brochure(link is external).

This webinar will provide advice on how to manage change within a practice and with patients. One example would be when a practice decides to increase fees in order to cover costs. Part of this change involves effectively communicating the reasons for out-of-pocket costs with patients.

A key focus of the session will be managing the transition from bulk billing to mixed billing and how to educate and prepare those that need to ‘buy in’ to successfully achieve change.

The webinar will also touch on other changes required for a practice to operate effectively, such as the use of particular software and implementing different employment models.

There will be an opportunity for attendees to ask questions of the presenters.

Chronic Disease Management of Pain & Wound Care

Date and Time: Wednesday, 19 October 2022. 11am – 12.30pm

Location: UniSC Gympie, 71 Cartwright Road, Gympie 4570

A FREE EVENT

Importance of managing pain in the elderly and the priority for appropriate wound care in residential aged care.

About this Event

3rd year nursing students will undertake a final clinical placement at Lutheran Services Cooinda Aged Care prior to completion of their degrees. The Transition to Practice Program is supported by a series of seminars on aged-related topics to be presented by academics and industry experts to assist the students in their chosen career path.

The Lunchbox Lectures are available to everyone and will allow you to learn how UniSC and Lutheran Services wish to support the development of the Aged Care sector in the future as well as strengthen your knowledge of key age-related health topics.

Topic 1: Residential aged care and Pain.

Residents of aged care communities are vulnerable to the debilitating effects of pain which can manifest in several ways. Our awareness and attitude towards pain in the elderly is imperative for both appropriate management and the best possible outcomes. Pain medication is not necessarily always the best choice and non-pharmacological pain relief can be supported by proper pain analysis.

Presenter: Jen Algie is a Physiotherapist and the Allied Health Manager at Cooinda, Lutheran Services.

Her years of experience, combined with her education and skills means that she is a passionate advocate for the health and wellbeing of the residents under her care. She understands that everyone experiences pain differently and there is no one means of treating pain. Pain relief is as individual as her clients.

Topic 2: Wounds and Wound management in the residential aged care facility

This presentation will share information on the several types of wounds and will explore why they can be hard to manage in the elderly. Wound care is now a specialised nurse role; however, excellent teamwork is required for best client outcomes when it comes to healing of wounds amongst residents of aged care facilities.

Presenter: Henrietta Martin is a registered nurse who is the Wound Management / Stomal Therapy Clinical Nurse Consultant for the Sunshine Coast Hospital and Health Services. Henrietta has certificates in Critical Care, Emergency Care and Stomal Therapy and has a Masters of Nursing in Clinical Leadership. Henrietta’s expertise on wound management and how to seek help when dealing with wounds seen in residential aged care will be enlightening.

Dr Sanil Rege – 20th October 2022 (M Flanagan)

Rural and remote general practitioners are commonly faced with a number of medical scenarios which requires them to be multi skilled. Rural and remote general practitioners must also learn to work with often limited support, supplies and equipment, particularly in a town without a hospital. Furthermore, paediatric care can be very challenging and unpredictable.

The aim of the workshop is to provide rural doctors with cross domain, team based learning opportunities. The workshop will use a variety of teaching methods such as interactive lectures and procedural skills stations related to Paediatrics.

Learning Objectives

1. Perform intraosseous needle insertion safely and effectively.
2. Demonstrate safe and effective basic paediatric airway management – including reasonable ability to intubate if required in an emergency.
3. Demonstrate neonatal resuscitation and paediatric advanced life support using Australasian Resuscitation Council guidelines.
4. Assess and safely manage the initial presentation of the critically ill child using an ABCD approach.

Falls Prevention AND Social isolation among RACF (Residential Aged Care Facility) residents and novel mitigation strategies.
Date and Time: Wednesday, 26 October 2022. 11am – 12.30pm
Location: UniSC Gympie, 71 Cartwright Road, Gympie 4570

A FREE EVENT

Importance of Falls Prevention & Management Strategies in Residential Aged Care Facilities.

Social isolation in Residential Aged Care Facilities and novel mitigation strategies.

About this Event
3rd year nursing students will undertake a final clinical placement at Lutheran Services Cooinda Aged Care prior to completion of their degrees. The Transition to Practice Program is supported by a series of seminars on aged-related topics to be presented by academics and industry experts to assist the students in their chosen career path.

The Lunchbox Lectures are available to everyone and will allow you to learn how UniSC and Lutheran Services wish to support the development of the Aged Care sector in the future as well as strengthen
your knowledge of key age-related health topics.

Topic 1: Preventing falls is everyone’s business
Falls can have a significant impact on not only the individual, but also family, friends and healthcare
providers. Older residents of aged care facilities are at a greater risk of falls resulting in injury, disability, loss of confidence and subsequent reduction in activity as well as a decline in community participation.

Presenter 1: Dr Mia Schaumberg is a Senior Lecturer in Physiology and the Program Coordinator for the Bachelor of Biomedical Science with UniSC. Her research focuses on lifestyle factors that help people to reduce their risk of falling. A preventative approach to falls can reduce both risk and occurrence and encompasses a variety of strategies which Mia will share with us.

Presenter 2: Jen Algie is a Physiotherapist and the Allied Health Manager at Lutheran Services Cooinda Aged Care. Jen will provide us with the current fall prevention strategies utilised within aged care. She will equip us with information on the Queensland Health Stay on your Feet Initiative and the available tools for health care providers. Importantly, she will share details on the Zane Allied Health Centre in Gympie, the services provided and how you can use this Centre to support your clients.

Topic 2: Social isolation among RACF residents and novel mitigation strategies.
There is an increased possibility of loneliness and social isolation amongst the older adult. These serious public health risks are now considered as impactful as smoking and obesity. Residents of aged care facilities have a greater likelihood of loneliness and social isolation as they are often without a spouse or partner and find themselves separated from family and friends. This presentation will share the results of a study that looked at innovative mitigation strategies to combat social isolation of residents within an aged care facility.

Presenter: Dr Apil Gurung is a Lecturer in Nursing with the UniSC. Apil has specific interests in
Gerontology, Aged Care, Primary Healthcare and Qualitative research. This will be both a fascinating and enlightening presentation on the study findings.
