Since the commencement of the 2010 school year, we While Trainers have undertaken a lot of travel during have been inundated by requests from schools to deliver the year, they have also experienced a heavier than the 1hour EpiPen training session.

Currently there are 2 full time Trainer positions to fill which will allow us to be even more responsive in being able to meet customer needs and expectations for their training.

While these were a great gift 01 July 2009 - 30 June 2010 and home learning resource, we have since steered away 10.52% from that resource and have introduced our own ‘St John NT stamped pens and key ring resuscitation face shields. 17.63% This initiative has received very positive feedback from course participants as they feel these items are quite useful to their needs and it extensively promotes the name of St John within the community.

In early 2010 through some consistent ‘lobbying’ espousing the quality of St John First Aid training and the professionalism of our Trainers, the Training Department were successful in winning a 12 month first aid training arrangement with the Granites Gold Mine. This arrangement included the delivery of 10 x 2 day Apply First Aid courses, 8 – 10 Advanced Resuscitation courses and 71.85% 1 or 2 Occupational First Aid courses. St John won the training from 3 other Alice Springs based training providers. Apply First Aid Throughout the year, it has been pleasing to see a Other Accredited Courses substantial number of public and private customers returning to St John NT after previously completing their Non Accredited Programs training with commercial competitors. A positive indication of the quality of our training programs is highlighted by the fact that some customer groups have been prepared to wait a period of time simply to ensure this training is delivered by our team.

Earlier in the year St John again met with representatives of Group Training NT to discuss further school based Work Ready first aid training for the second half of the year for delivery in ‘remote’ areas. Participant numbers for each remote location are identified in brackets. Groote Eylandt (8), Maningrida (14), Jabiru (23), Batchelor (15), Katherine (12), Borroloola (11), with Tennant Creek scheduled for delivery later in the year. Locally under this program we trained a total of 148 school students in the Darwin/Alice Springs regions and have further courses scheduled for delivery prior to the end of year.

11 In May 2010 a restructure of the Training Department Total Number of Learners occurred with Brendan Quirke taking a more strategic, planning role in training as the Director, Education and 01 July 2009 - 30 June 2010 Training. Lynda McMeekin accepted an appointment as 9.87% the Paramedic Education Manager and Annetta Albanese as the First Aid Training Manager. 11.58%

Earlier in the year, representatives from the Training Department attended an Australian Quality Training Framework (AQTF) information session. The information session gave an insight to Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) re: National Regulations. Based on information which was passed on at this session responsibilities for accreditation of courses, RTO registrations and external auditing will be taken over in the near future by the Department of Employment and Workplace Relations (Federal), rather than local Department of Education 78.55% bodies.

Once again across 2010, AQTF Quality Indicator reporting Apply First Aid was nationally submitted. For two years now we have reported on the number of course completions/enrolments Other Accredited Courses against all units and qualifications appearing on the St John NT Scope of Registration. This year however there was Non Accredited Programs also a need to report on Employer and Learner feedback questionnaires for the 2009 period. Collated feedback stemming from the reports has indicated exceptionally satisfying results, with the majority of participants indicating they are completely satisfied with the services being provided by St John NT.

12 All accredited first aid training courses are included in the Learners per month Health Training Package (HLT07) and are ‘marketed’ under 01 July 2009 - 30 June 2010 the Health Training Package nomenclatures allocated to them in HLT07. This ensures our customers receive Jul 09 - 621 a Statement of Attainment which is representative of the training they have completed. Aug 09 - 816

Apply First Aid continues to be the training of choice in the Sep 09 - 738 Northern Territory as it nationally, both for individuals and for industry groups.

This Jan 10 - 366 equates to an increase of 1094 since 2008/2009 and represents an average of 830 learners per month.

14 Commissioner’s Report

In presenting my report to you this year I have given We have had a busy year with many highlights and also considerable thought to the service which is provided to some very sad times. We mourned the loss of our dear the community by our dedicated members and the ever- friend, Council Member Bernie Kilgariff and also our former changing times we find ourselves in. But I start by thanking Chairman, Richard Morris. Both Bernie and Richard made all of our members for their tremendous effort throughout major contributions to St John in the Northern Territory and the past year. have left an indelible mark on our organisation.

I have been thinking about the way the younger generation We were privileged to host a volunteer social night visit thinks about volunteerism and also the way in which for the Lord Prior, Professor Anthony Mellows and Mrs they go about finding out about volunteer organisations.

It is vital that new members On a national level the Commissioners and Superintendents have the appropriate training and are able to commence have discussed a broad range of issues including National their community service work as quickly as possible. Security, Resilience and Cross Branch Frameworks, We have found that our public duties are increasing in National Response Guidelines, Leadership, the Role of the number and size and we are being requested to attend St John Ambulance Australia in the community and they more major duties. Our members come from dual income have updated the Operations Branch Guidelines. families with more stresses on daily lives which leave little room for volunteerism and training seems to be a focus rather than community service. One consideration could be the increase of infrastructure for support personnel so members can concentrate on providing the first aid service. There is a greater need to ensure we have accurate records for the recording of training and the provision of statistical information which could all be done by support staff. Despite the challenges ahead we must always focus on providing the best quality first aid service to our community.

15 We are very excited about the possible establishment of a In a break with tradition we changed the usual Annual Cadet Division in Yirrkala in Arnhemland. Mark Ferguson Parade of members to a Member Recognition Weekend and Mandy Paradise met with the community elders and which included a Member Presentation Night, Officers and the school principal from Yirrkala and received a very Superintendents Meeting, Member Dinner and Church positive response.

Volunteer Office Staff.

As a part of a national project Lesley King is managing the Women in St John Project in the NT. The National Board of Directors of St John Ambulance Australia has recognized the contribution of women in its ranks by endorsing an official publication. Lesley has sent letters to nineteen current and former female members in the NT asking them to participate in the project.

During the past year we have given Cadets from across the Steve Peers OAM KStJ JP Territory an opportunity to interact with each other through Commissioner the NT Cadet Camp, NCO leadership courses, attendance at the Lord Prior’s function and the youth event at the Members Recognition Weekend. I have feedback that this has provided some great team building and networking for our young people. The successful establishment of the Youth Division is evidence of the need to continue to provide opportunities for our youth.

We receive tremendous financial support from the St John Council for all our current requests however for us to go forward and reach our projected membership targets we need to factor in future growth in technology, recruitment and retention. This would include an update of the member database and the ability for members to input information from their centres. This would also assist with the more efficient processing of data and statistical analysis.
