  • Media Release***
    ***Media release*** Record 90 interns start at Austin Health A record 90 interns started their first rotation in the Austin Health/Northern Health training program on Monday 18 January - the largest number to ever begin in a single intake and the largest program in Victoria. Manager of HMO Services Sarah McConchie said the program has not only the largest intern intake in Victoria, but also the widest range of rotations. “We have some really exciting positions this year. We are constantly looking at new and innovative roles to offer interns, to provide them with as broad and meaningful an experience as possible,” says Ms McConchie. During their intern year, the new recruits will complete five 10-week rotations, three of which must be in Surgery, General Medicine and Emergency Medicine. This year, interns have the opportunity to complete rotations in two new fields – Psychiatry and Forensic Medicine. The Forensic Medicine placement, which will be undertaken at the Victorian Institute of Forensic Medicine, is the first of its kind in Victoria. Dr Sundar Veerapan from Alphington officially starts his career as the first intern in Victoria to do a rotation in Forensic Medicine. “I’m really interested in the medico-legal aspects of Forensic Medicine, such as how doctors contribute to testimonies,” Dr Veerapan said. There were over 500 applications for the 90 positions available in 2010. Director of Medical Education Dr Heather Grusauskas said she is delighted that so many new graduates have chosen Austin Health as their employer of choice. “The medical education unit provides state-of-the-art training and learning opportunities to teach appropriate skills to ensure high quality patient care,” Dr Grusauskas said.

He was. 89, born in the same year as Ararat and Beechworth Hospitals were opened. He came to Victoria from Wales in 1905 as the first Inspector-General and he retired in 1937. He was an outstanding person, and despite the shortage of funds he managed to build Royal Park Receiving House, Mont Park Mental Hospital, Travancore Centre, and Janefield Colony. He made considerable improvements in the mental hygiene acts and it was due to his foresight that the voluntary-boarder system was introduced in Victoria eighteen years before the English mental-treatment Act was proclaimed. He was a charming person with a delightful wit and manners but he was forthright and uncompromising in his disapproval of the Mental Hygiene Authority Act which he maintained left a mental hygiene authority without authority.

  • Royal Children's Hospital
    Long term Disability Care and Support Scheme Productivity Commission Inquiry Submission on behalf of The Royal Children’s Hospital, Melbourne Introduction The Royal Children’s Hospital (RCH) welcomes the opportunity to provide this submission to the Productivity Commission’s inquiry into a National long‐term Disability care and Insurance Scheme (NDIS) in Australia. The RCH is the major specialist paediatric hospital in Victoria. Our care extends to children in Tasmania, southern New South Wales, as well as other states and overseas. We are the designated state‐wide major trauma centre for paediatrics in Victoria and a Nationally Funded Centre for cardiac and liver transplantation. With our campus partners, Murdoch Childrens Research Institute and The University of Melbourne, Department of Paediatrics, we are united in our goal to improve the health outcomes for children. In 2009‐10, RCH treated close to 35,000 inpatients, more than 230,000 outpatients, 7,500 patients underwent surgery and 67,000 patients presented at our Emergency Department. A significant number of these children have some form of disability and have complex health needs. This submission has been developed with the collective input of staff across RCH, including Allied Health, Social Work, Adolescent Health and Development Medicine. In making this submission, we firstly acknowledge the efforts of government in this initiative, which has the potential to make a significant difference to the lives of many children and their families living with a disability. We support a well funded, co‐ordinated and inclusive national disability care and support scheme which addresses the issues within the current system.
