AUGUST 2019 EDITION We Would Like to Pay Our Respects to the Traditional Owners of the Lands Across the South West South West Hospital and Health Service PULSE AUGUST 2019 EDITION We would like to pay our respects to the traditional owners of the lands across the South West. We would also like to pay our respects to the current and future Elders who will inherit the responsibility of keeping Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture alive, and creating a better life for the generations to follow. We believe the future happiness and wellbeing of all Australians and their future generations will be enhanced by valuing and taking pride in Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples – the oldest living culture of humanity.

FROM THE BOARD CHAIR JIM McGOWAN, AM The Board meets in Roma with local Maranoa Regional Councillors and Executive Leadership Team members 4 South West Hospital and Health Service Occupational violence is an issue which can have a devastating impact on our staff, volunteers and consumers. People have a right to expect that when their loved ones or friends leave home to work in or visit one of our facilities that they will return home safely. We are committed to providing maximum support to mitigate both the incidence and impact of occupational violence. Sometimes, this involves changes to the physical layout in those facilities; sometimes it may require personal devices which can be activated; sometimes its impact can be mitigated by greater awareness and risk assessments. It always involves ongoing training and support. However, you are subject to greater challenges than regular workplaces. Drug fueled patients in our emergency departments, consumers with dementia in our aged care facilities and people with mental health issues are just a few examples where you are at greater risk than those in other workplaces. You must report any incidents to your supervisors and where appropriate, to the police. You need to know that support is available and have a right to expect that support. You have a right to know what follow up actions are planned or have been taken. You may have ideas on how to mitigate the risks in your workplace. Those ideas are welcome. Domestic and family violence can also impact on a person’s safety, wellbeing and work performance. The South West Hospital and Health Board at its August meeting reiterated its commitment to people who have been subject to domestic and family violence and approved a communication plan to inform employees about the support services that are available to them. This will include advice to others who become aware that one of their colleagues may be suffering as a result of domestic and family violence. Information on support services including leave arrangements will be available on the SWHHS intranet site, the Employee Assistance Program (EAP), the Pulse, posters, your supervisors or from HR specialists. The implementation of the new state-wide finance system (S/4HANA) has not gone as well as promised. I am aware that this has created challenges for the ordering and delivery of stock. I thank you for your patience, persistence and understanding. Local initiative and problem solving and cooperative approaches have been central to ensuring that clinical service delivery has not been compromised. Thank you. Consider these. “I call him religious who understands the suffering of others.” Mahatma Gandhi (1869 to 1948), leader of the non-violent campaign for Indian independence. Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.” Dr Leo Buscaglia (1924- 1998); known “Dr Love”; Professor in the Department of Special Education, University of Southern California.

  • A Thesis Submitted by Dale Wayne Kerwin for the Award of Doctor of Philosophy 2020
    SOUTHWARD MOVEMENT OF WATER – THE WATER WAYS A thesis submitted by Dale Wayne Kerwin For the award of Doctor of Philosophy 2020 Abstract This thesis explores the acculturation of the Australian landscape by the First Nations people of Australia who named it, mapped it and used tangible and intangible material property in designing their laws and lore to manage the environment. This is taught through song, dance, stories, and paintings. Through the tangible and intangible knowledge there is acknowledgement of the First Nations people’s knowledge of the water flows and rivers from Carpentaria to Goolwa in South Australia as a cultural continuum and passed onto younger generations by Elders. This knowledge is remembered as storyways, songlines and trade routes along the waterways; these are mapped as a narrative through illustrations on scarred trees, the body, engravings on rocks, or earth geographical markers such as hills and physical features, and other natural features of flora and fauna in the First Nations cultural memory. The thesis also engages in a dialogical discourse about the paradigm of 'ecological arrogance' in Australian law for water and environmental management policies, whereby Aqua Nullius, Environmental Nullius and Economic Nullius is written into Australian laws. It further outlines how the anthropocentric value of nature as a resource and the accompanying humanistic technology provide what modern humans believe is the tool for managing ecosystems. In response, today there is a coming together of the First Nations people and the new Australians in a shared histories perspective, to highlight and ensure the protection of natural values to land and waterways which this thesis also explores.

SWF- SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ANTHROPOLOGY • NUMBER 38 SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge" was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Folklife Studies Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world of science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given substantive review.
