Showcase Victorian Public Healthcare Awards Showcase Message from the Premier of Victoria Victorian Public Healthcare 05Awards Showcase Victorian Public Healthcare Awards Showcase Message from the Premier of Victoria Victoria has one of the best health systems in the world. And the heart of that system is a dedicated workforce - doctors, nurses, allied health workers - who work tirelessly to save the lives of many Victorians and enhance the quality of life of many more. Through the 2005 Victorian Public Healthcare Awards we celebrate and pay tribute to those people and their achievements. From managing emergency and acute care, to treating chronic and complex conditions, and preventing ill health, there is no doubt that public healthcare is one of the most challenging fi elds in which to work. Yet what is most impressive is the unerring commitment of those who work in our health system to making a difference to the lives of Victorians. As a community, we can take enormous pride in the expertise, ingenuity and dedication of our healthcare workforce. The Victorian Government is proud to honour the achievements of our public healthcare providers. Congratulations. The Honourable Steve Bracks MP Premier of Victoria Message from the Minister for Health The 2005 Victorian Public Healthcare Awards recognise the commitment of our healthcare professionals to quality, innovation and excellence. With more than 200 entries, we have seen an impressive array of innovative programs that are improving the lives of countless Victorians. Our hospitals and health services, both large and small, are at the forefront of health care delivery. In many cases, we are leading the country and the world. Like Austin Health’s Medical Emergency Team concept, which is to be introduced in 1000 hospitals in the United States. In Geelong, Barwon Health is at the forefront of overnight home haemodialysis, transforming the lives of people with kidney disease. Western District Health Service’s Sustainable Farm Families and Eastern Health’s Kool Kids Positive Parents are working closely with their communities to prevent health problems before they begin. And a dental program that reaches out to the homeless and other vulnerable Victorians is being run by Inner South Community Health Services.
