At the collaborators’ meeting for the Early ECV Trial in June 2002, the trial findings were first discussed, and collaborators unanimously agreed that a second, larger trial was required. They felt that although the findings of the Early ECV Trial were encouraging, evidence was required to demonstrate that beginning ECV early would decrease the rate of Caesarean section and to rule out any increased risk of adverse fetal or neonatal outcomes. Therefore with a lot of hard work and co-operation from all of you, our proposal for a larger Early External Cephalic Version Trial was completed and submitted to the Canadian Institutes of Health Research. Our application will compete in the April 2003 Randomized Controlled Trials competition and funding decisions will be announced in the fall of this year. We have had a very enthusiastic response to the Early ECV 2 trial. In total more than 80 letters of support were received. Welcome on board everyone!

  • Northern Beaches Strategy Site Assessment
    Northern Beaches Strategy, Site Assessment Economic Appraisal Prepared for NSW Health Applied Economics September 2005 Contents Summary 1 Introduction: Objectives and Options 3 2 Method of Economic Appraisal 4 3 Inputs to Economic Appraisal 6 4 Results 12 Appendix Economic Evaluation Spreadsheets for each Option Acknowledgment Capital Insight provided the estimates of property costs, capital costs associated with construction and provision of the hospitals, and operating costs for the hospitals in each option for the evaluation in this report. Peter Abelson Director, Applied Economics Applied Economics 2 Summary This report provides an economic appraisal of three strategies and nine options for the location of future hospital services for residents of the Northern Beaches area of Sydney. Strategy 1 (the Base Case) is an upgrade of the existing Mona Vale and Manly Hospitals along with some extra use of Royal North Shore Hospital. Strategy 2 places a new hospital at one of five sites in Warringah Shire along with a complementary hospital service at Mona Vale. These sites are on and around the Dee Why public car park, the Brookvale bus depot, the (Frenchs Forest) intersection of the Warringah and Wakehurst Parkway, the northern end of the Warringah Golf Course, and the Beacon Hill secondary school site. Strategy 3 places a new hospital at Mona Vale along with a complementary hospital service in Dee Why, Brookvale or Manly. The report assumes that total use of public hospital services by residents of the Northern Beaches will be the same under each option. The study is therefore a cost-effectiveness study. It incorporates five sets of costs: land and property costs, hospital renovation and construction costs, hospital operating costs, access costs, and some environmental costs.

    Submission No 200 INQUIRY INTO OPERATION AND MANAGEMENT OF THE NORTHERN BEACHES HOSPITAL Organisation: NSW Nurses and Mid Wives' Association Date Received: 26 July 2019 Submission by the New South Wales Nurses and Midwives’ Association (in conjunction with the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Federation NSW Branch) NSW Legislative Council, Portfolio Committee No 2 Inquiry into the operation and management of the Northern Beaches Hospital 26 July 2019 Our ref: EF/15/0009 The Hon Greg Donnelly MLC Committee Chair Legislative Council Portfolio Committee No 2 Attention: Director, Portfolio Committee No 2 - Health and Community Services Email: [email protected] Re: Inquiry into the operation and management of the Northern Beaches Hospital The New South Wales Nurses and Midwives’ Association, along with the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Federation NSW Branch (‘Association’) are the registered unions (in both the state and federal workplace jurisdiction) for all employees working in nursing and midwifery classifications and roles. The Association provides both industrial and professional support and representation to some 66,000 members in NSW. This ranges, for example, from the provision of information about workplace rights, providing direct support to members (and representation if necessary) with employers or before industrial or professional courts and tribunals, assistance with appearances before other courts and jurisdictions, as well as negotiating and bargaining on behalf of members with their employers for awards and enterprise agreements. The above has meant that the Association provides membership and therefore such services to nurses and midwives working in either the government or non- government sectors, state and federal. In other words, the Association is the relevant industrial organisation of employees for nurses and midwives whether they work in the NSW Health Service (government sector) or in the Northern Beaches Hospital (private sector).

Close Manly Hospital leaving the land for public recreational use as an extension of North Head Harbour Reserve. Replace Manly Hospital with a centrally accessible Level 5 Hospital preferably at Frenchs Forest. At the central hospital co-locate a community health centre. Provide community health services at Manly to replace those services lost by Manly Hospital closure. These could possibly be provided at the site of the present Far West Childrens’ Home by arrangement, or at the present Queenscliff Health Centre site. In either case childrens’ services could be centred at Dalwood for concentration of childrens’ services. Maintain Mona Vale Hospital as a 24 hour emergency centre supported by extensive emergency transport services in from its north and out to the central hospital to its south. At the hospital site co-locate a long term aged care rehabilitation unit, a hospice, and possibly a sports injury unit, and facilities for Far West Children as an extension of its Manly site.

  • Submission from the Palm Beach & Whale Beach
    1 SUBMISSION FROM THE PALM BEACH & WHALE BEACH ASSOCIATION (PBWBA) TO THE UPPER HOUSE ENQUIRY INTO NORTHERN BEACHES HOSPITAL (NBH) 26 July 2019 I, Adjunct Associate Professor Richard Hugh West AM VMO Surgeon at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital Camperdown, am presenting this submission on behalf of the members of the Palm Beach & Whale Beach Residents Association. The Association has represented members of Palm Beach and Whale Beach for more than 100 years and has a current membership of more than 250 families. I have worked in NSW hospitals for over 40 years. I am very familiar with how the NSW health system works. In presenting this submission I am also using my experience as a surveyor for the Australian Council Health Care Standards (ACHS), accrediting hospitals all over Australia. I am now a resident of Palm Beach and President of the Palm Beach & Whale Beach Residents Association (PBWBA). THE MAIN CONCERNS OF THE PBWBA MEMBERS ARE: 1.Clinical Services: The lack of appropriate medical and surgical services at the Public/Private Level 5 Northern Beaches Hospital (NBH) for all Public and Private patients. 2. Mona Vale Hospital: The downgrading of medical services at the Mona Vale Hospital Site. 3. Access to NBH: The distance to be travelled, and therefore the time to travel from Pittwater to the NBH is excessive, either by public transport or private car. The distance and time are markedly increased in bad weather when The Wakehurst Parkway is closed. 4. Ambulance services: Lack of Ambulance services and poor response times in Pittwater. My conclusions and recommendations to address these concerns are set out at the end of this submission.
