As a former DON in a rural hospital I studied medicine to make a difference where I couldn't as a nurse. 11% of outpatients receiving vital sign observations was one of many things that kept me awake at night. Soft investigation after investigation was another. Tragic #4Corners

Access to mental health services under Medicare varies wildly depending on where you live - see attached graph from AIHW. Need a radically different model to meet the needs of our non-city areas. Who is doing this work? @ian_hickie @BrainMind_Usyd @NRHAlliance @ozprodcom

Every situation we face in life is an opportunity to grow (or regress) as a human being, depending on the choices that we make.

70% of #prescription #overdose #deaths are in patients who have seen only one #GP... wondering if it's a case of "individual doctor prescribing" bad lemons though? Doctor shopping of another kind... https://t.co/fSve2wkXQO
