CRRMH Quarterly Report June 2020 CENTRE FOR RURAL & REMOTE MENTAL HEALTH Quarterly Report April – June 2020 About the CRRMH The Centre for Rural and Remote Mental Health (CRRMH) is based in Orange NSW and is a major rural initiative of the University of Newcastle and the NSW Ministry of Health. Our staff are located across rural and remote NSW. The Centre is committed to improving mental health and wellbeing in rural and remote communities. We focus on the following key areas: • the promotion of good mental health and the prevention of mental illness; • developing the mental health system to better meet the needs of people living in rural and remote regions; and • understanding and responding to rural suicide. Centre for Rural and Remote Mental Health As the Australian Collaborating Centre for the International Foundation for PO Box 8043 Integrated Care, we promote patient-centred rather than provider-focused Orange East NSW 2800 care that integrates mental and physical health concerns. T +61 2 6363 8444 E [email protected] As part of the University of Newcastle, all of our activities are underpinned by research evidence and evaluated to ensure appropriateness and effectiveness. crrmh.com.au @crrmh @crrmhnsw /company/crrmh 2 | Centre for Rural & Remote Mental Health Quarterly Report: April – June 2020 Contents Report Page Director’s Report 4 Snapshot of the Quarter 5 Research 6 John Hoskin Library 7 Connections 8 Communications 10 Online Connections 12 Partnerships 14 Rural Adversity Mental Health Program (RAMHP) 19 Staff News 22 Appendix 21 3 | Centre for Rural & Remote Mental Health Quarterly Report: April – June 2020 Director’s Report Centre Director Professor David Perkins The second quarter of 2020 was not what we expected in our planning for the year. The combination of drought, bushfires and COVID-19 changed the landscape in which rural people live and the patterns of service delivery considered safe for clients and providers. Direct impacts of this process included the cessation of opportunities for face-to-face community interactions and the urgent need to develop virtual alternatives that were accessible and effective. For many, the restrictions of travel and association added to the normal burdens of distress due to illness and loneliness and the health impacts of these stressors are yet to be seen in full. The challenges faced by rural communities resulted in new rural service developments funded by state and federal governments and by charitable donations. These responses have added to the complexity of rural mental health services and many new roles and responsibilities have had to be developed and understood. Each Local Health District adopted approaches that suited local needs and there are considerable differences in the service mix available across rural NSW. Linking people to appropriate services, the role of our RAMHP program, has become even more important. During this time, Centre staff and RAMHP Coordinators had to adapt their ways of working and find new ways of communicating with their communities as normal events were cancelled, and preparations and plans postponed or delayed. The CRRMH has adopted a multi-platform approach for many years and so we were well positioned to deliver new online solutions during this time. This includes addressing men’s mental health with the launch of You Got This Mate, rural small business owner with the Ahead for Business Wellbeing of rural business owners project and enhanced online resources on our websites. Online versions of RAMHP's training programs will also be launched soon. Our CRRMH administrative staff were able to facilitate working from home arrangements in days and as this report shows there was no loss in productivity. A particular thank you is due to the leadership team of Tessa Cummins, Hazel Dalton, Rosie Dunnett and Vanessa Delaney who completed the Proposed Business Plan for 2021+ which is a requirement for our continued funding by NSW Health’s Mental Health Branch. Hazel and Tessa also did a remarkable job when they were called upon to act as Directors in my absence. On the research front, Emma Austin was awarded her PhD for her work on the links between drought and mental health and we look forward to continuing this collaboration moving forwards. Finally, rural NSW is often thought of as the west and the coastal communities are forgotten. The CRRMH has entered into an exciting new partnership with Landcare, Surf Lifesaving NSW and Gotcha 4 Life which brings the country and the coast together. We look forward to the promotion of mental fitness in these communities and strong relationships with our partners. We are more effective when we understand the evidence and work collaboratively.

  • A Message from Victorian Nurses and Midwives
    A message from Victorian nurses and midwives Dear patient/client/resident/relative/friend When Victorians get sick, injured or have a baby, they deserve the care of skilled, highly qualified and dedicated nurses and midwives. The nurses and midwives caring for you or your family member or friend are skilled, highly qualified and dedicated. They’re also some of the lowest paid nurses and midwives in the country. For the past 17 years Victorian nurses and midwives have fought for nurse/midwife: patient ratios to make sure our state’s patients have the best standards of care. While we’ve been focused on patient safety, our pay rates have fallen behind the wage levels of nurses and midwives in other states. Now nurse/midwife: patient ratios have been safeguarded in law, it’s time to address the wage gap. Victorian nurses and midwives earn four to 20 per cent less each week than our NSW colleagues. The average Victorian bedside nurse earns approximately $13,500 less each year than a NSW nurse doing the same work. Victoria’s public sector nurses and midwives, represented by our union, the Australian Nursing & Midwifery Federation (Vic Branch), are currently negotiating our next agreement with the Victorian Government and our hospital employers. As part of our campaign to value, recognise and reward our work, we are wearing our red ANMF shirts and giving out information about the campaign. We’re also encouraging you to get behind our campaign by supporting us on Facebook and Twitter, and contacting Victorian politicians and the media. Please turn over for ways to support fair pay for nurses and midwives.
