@Steph50008 @MHR50008 Yes! When one client becomes agitated or restlessness, other clients follow, it's a chain reaction sometimes.

[50008 @Amrita50008]

@Chanel50008 @MHR50008 Objective is to make consumers think about their smoking habits e.g through resources, regular conversations so on.

@maria_50008 @MHR50008 From the Quit Victoria advocate that was here for an in-service.

[50008 @Amrita50008]

@EllyNURS50008 @MHR50008 Are the consumers aware of this though? Maybe the treating team could highlight these risks clearly.

[50008 @Amrita50008]

@MHR50008 10% of Victorians smoke & on top of the list is mental health patients! Would be nice if we can change the culture some how..

[50008 @Amrita50008]

@MHR50008 2/2 'Smoking care' is diff from quiting. Means, better to do something then nothing, attempting to reduce, culture, role modelling

[50008 @Amrita50008]

@MHR50008 1/2 Great in-service by Quit Vic who are conducting a project looking at 'smoking care' in mental health facilities.

[50008 @Amrita50008]

@Sophie_50008 @MHR50008 True, especially with smoking & illicit drugs & how they effect the physical & mental health of consumers.

[50008 @Amrita50008]

@MHR50008 Yes & also if a client as been aggressive/abusive or an incident has happened, its a great chance to discuss & get feedback.

[50008 @Amrita50008]

[50008 @Amrita50008]

@MHR50008 An MSE is done in every shift for every patient. I thought it would be a long and lengthy process but its just a brief assessment

[50008 @Amrita50008]

@MHR50008 Really good that the nursing progress notes are done on the computer following the SBAR format. However are time consuming.

[50008 @Amrita50008]

@El50008 @MHR50008 @YouTube Great example! Have seen it before, explains it really well.

[50008 @Amrita50008]
