  • Chairman's Address AGM 2020
    Chairman’s Address AGM 2020 1. First of all a very big thank you to all of you, to all the members of St. John, of all the branches of St. John, to the colleagues in St. John Council, to all our helpers and collaborators who have really put in a big effort, to push this this old organization not only to higher levels of visibility, but also to higher levels of action. 2. I particularly look forward to seeing the headquarters of St. John refurbished and returned to its state as a truly beautiful building which is also highly functional for our organisation. I have just been to visit the works with James Cilia, our Training Commissioner who has been coordinating the project, and Joseph Pisani, our administration assistant. These works are not just on the outside of the headquarters. 3. This is not going to be a refurbished headquarters for St. John Council. This is the headquarters for all the Association, for all the members of the Association, for all the branches of the Association: we will have multi-function rooms before the use of all the branches of the Association, by the Commissioners, by whoever in the Association needs to make use of the prestigious rooms in the headquarters itself. This is not a project simply to embellish our HQ: this is a project to increase the dignity of this organization. As one of the oldest, if not the oldest, civil society organization in Malta, St John should have a dignified headquarters to represent its history and culture.

  • The Emerging Role of Telehealth in a New Zealand Ambulance Service
    Business Research Project: The emerging role of telehealth in a New Zealand ambulance service Master of Business Administration (MBA) Victoria University of Wellington October 2014 Words: 11,700 Jared Stevenson (300061961) Clinical Development Manager and Paramedic, St John EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Telehealth systems – using ICT to manage health from a distance – have been developing for decades, including within the ambulance sector. The author undertook this research to better understand how telehealth could improve patient outcomes, improve effectiveness, or create efficiencies for the St John ambulance service. To achieve this, current literature was reviewed and a small group of experts were interviewed whose experience lies in either the ambulance service or the health sector. Key recommendations are described below: • It is of strategic importance to design ambulance telehealth systems with interoperability and interconnectivity – this will maximise health sector integration and governmental support. • Telehealth solutions should be based on simple, well-established, easy to use, and ubiquitous technologies. This reduces fear, limits technical challenges, enables technology adoption, and improves chances of success. Of all available technologies, video-calling provides the most opportunity at present. • Consistent with the 111 Clinical Hub model, St John should centralise specialists to provide telehealth support. This approach is cost effective as only a small number of specialists is required. It also supports effective clinical decision-making as this group routinely make complex decisions. • It is realistic for St John to integrate video-calling as a telehealth solution into the 111 Clinical Hub. As a patient-to-clinician tool, 111 Clinical Hub staff could use video connections to call back low acuity patients to perform a secondary triage.

  • Partnerships for Strength in Fiji Kenya and Somerset
    March 2014 | Issue 47 Sharing news from the Order of St John Kenya and Somerset - “together we move forward” A team of four paramedics from St John in Somerset have just returned from a successful training trip at St John Kenya. Their aim was to improve, standardise, and enhance the knowledge of the Emergency Response Personnel in Kenya. During the two weeks that the team were in Nairobi, some 41 staff and volunteers from all regions of Kenya received training. In addition, four participants were selected to undertake trainer training, to gain practical experience of delivering sessions. Selinah Kibogy, the Kenyan CEO, reported that the training was very informative and reinvigirated the participants to do more in their line of duty. Prior to the team’s departure, they were able to ship out eight large boxes of surplus uniforms donated by the South West Region together with a supply of Patient Report Forms, Medical books and several First Aid kits. The region has also identified two surplus ambulances with very low mileage, which will be shipped out in the very near future. While in Nairobi, two of the team undertook 30 minute interviews on two different TV channels. Initial reports from the Somerset team on getting back to the UK were that the loyalty and dedication of the Kenyan Priory members was only surpassed by their enthusiasm and willingness to learn. Ron Powell, Commissioner of St John in Somerset said “it is certainly my intention to send out a further team in the future to continue helping our Kenyan colleagues expand their skills, their professional development, and governance and ultimately save lives”.
