Are You Passionate About Allied Health Education? Then we may have the ideal role for you! Greater Eastern Southern Child Health Network is currently advertising a 16 hour per week temporary part-time (until June 30th 2013) Allied Health Educator (Level 5) position. This is an exciting opportunity to work with the Allied Health Educators in each of the three Child Health Networks to coordinate, facilitate, and expand the current ongoing education and clinical support needs/programs for Allied Health Professionals (APHs) working with children across NSW. To discuss this position further, please contact Virginia Binns on 02 9382 1055 or visit http://nswhealth.erecruit.com.au/ViewPosition.aspx?Id=39770. Position closes 21st August 2011. Issue 35 Page 2 SPEECH PATHOLOGY IN EDUCATION (SPIE) A partnership between Mudgee Health Service & Schools in the Cudgegong Learning Community In recent years there has been considerable growth in the population of Mudgee and surrounding towns, and as such we have seen a significant increase in the demand for Speech Pathology services. This increased need was in addition to the already extensive waiting lists and limited service availability and poor accessibility in regional areas. During 2009 members of Mudgee and its regional communities expressed concerns regarding the limited access to Speech Pathology and other intervention services for school aged children. An enthusiastic local school teacher, together with the Mudgee Lion’s Club began a fundraiser named “The Chatter Charity Challenge”. A total of $20,000 was raised and was used to fund and implement a School Speech Pathology position based within Mudgee Health Service. The project commenced mid-way through 2010 and aimed to identify gaps in existing service, determine how a collaborative working practice could be achieved between education and Speech Pathology and to improve management of school aged children with communication needs. An evaluation of the current services was undertaken through discussions with and surveys of teaching staff. Over the following 12 months changes were implemented and a new service delivery model for school aged children emerged. Means of identifying students requiring Speech Pathology has moved from teacher only identification to classroom observations by Speech Pathologist and discussion with teacher regarding students. This has seen an increase in the number of children identified with possible communication delays in the areas of speech, language, literacy and social skills. The number of referrals has increased by 36% when compared with the 12 months prior to implementation of the position, and by 66% when compared with the average number of referrals over the past three years. Teachers were responsible for identifying 45% of children referred to Speech Pathology and the remaining 55% were identified by the Speech Pathologists. Teachers often identified children who demonstrated receptive language deficits while Speech Pathologists identified children with expressive language and milder difficulties. Assessments were previously only provided in a clinical setting. Children now attend formal language assessment in the school setting and additional observational assessment of children in their classroom environment is strongly encouraged. Allowing clinicians to assess their functional use of language, helps to set more relevant and curriculum based goals. The greatest benefit of the revised service delivery has allowed for more regular and flexible intervention. Children can be seen individually, in small class groups or whole class activities. Team teaching (Speech Pathologist and Teacher working together in the classroom on a common goal) and up skilling the teachers about speech and language has been instrumental in building rapport between professionals. Whole class, teacher friendly resources for sound development and phonological awareness, have been developed to complement formal phonics teaching and promote the importance of these skills for literacy development. The programs explain the typical development of speech and possible contributing factors to speech and language difficulties. They also provide activities and strategies to help incorporate speech and phonological awareness goals within the classroom. The Speech Pathology Department and School Communities are eager to see this collaborative project continue for the sustained benefit of all local children. The continuation and ideally, an expansion of the project is dependent upon extended funding. Two local schools have committed funds to continue the project for another six months and are seeking additional funding from external organisations. Further evaluation and planning will help establish a position which continues to support the learning and social needs of all school aged children and will have lasting benefits for the wider community.

    SWAN 24 TRAUMA CONFERENCE 29 – 30 JULY 2016 SCIENTIFIC PROGRAM 0 Dear Colleagues, It is with very great pleasure that we once again welcome you to the 24th SWAN Trauma Conference. With another world renowned international faculty from Norway, Canada, Colombia, Estonia and New Zealand and our own national experts in trauma care, this conference promises to be a superb mix of lectures, great debates, interactive case scenarios, key note speeches and Q and A sessions. Our regular SWAN delegates will see that we have undergone some changes in particular with the program and website. This year we have expanded the program with multiple concurrent sessions which gives you the chance to pick and choose what particularly interests you or you may have expertise in. Of course there will still be the major plenary sessions for all to attend and we have brought back our free paper session for all to have a chance at presenting their work and research. This year we will examine quality in trauma care as well as have heated discussions on the controversies and complexities of trauma diagnosis and management including the problems of managing the extremes of age. Our very popular annual great debate will again entertain and provoke and our real life case scenarios will continue to generate great dispute, deliberation and discourse. We will move from the resuscitation room to the intensive care unit and finally to the operating room discussing various demanding aspects of caring for the multiply injured patient. We will also have a session that moves us away from Level one centre care to the rural setting which presents its own enormous challenges.
