@jane_bollen leading us through a highly informative session and learning to use an evidence-based screening tool to recognise older people with, or at risk of frailty.
#IND23#ANMFSA#conference
Thank you to @ElizabethDabars and @ANMFSA for asking me to come and discuss Healthy Ageing and Frailty with nurses in SA. Whether it is a patient a parent or ourselves, we all need to know how to age well. Nurses in GP are well placed to educate our communities.
Consultation for the National Rural & the Remote Nursing Generalist Framework is now open🩺
The consultation is open to all nurses, especially those with an interest in rural & remote work.
The survey closes 📅 📅 Thu, 10 Mar 2022. Have your say at💻https://t.co/ZFKRqtVy5s
It takes time and investment to have highly trained nurses in primary care. Nurses are a vital element for a high performing general practice. Something needs to be done urgently. As a community we can’t lose this workforce.
A quarter of the primary care nurse workforce could soon quit, survey shows

More than one quarter of all primary health care nurses – nurses that work outside of hospitals including in aged care – say they are planning to leave their job. Here's the @GuardianAus story: https://t.co/0bSWyIZUT7
‘While health authorities recruited extra staff and provided extra resources to help with hospital admissions, they forgot the primary healthcare sector," APNA Pres @KarenBooth43 said.

TONIGHT: Thousands of nurses and midwives walk off the job in NSW, protesting staff and pay levels. Did COVID push an already stressed system to its limit?
PLUS: China-Australia relations back in the news ahead of the federal election.
That and more 6PM AEDT #TheDrum

Scott Morrison must put nurses back in nursing homes. He has ignored the Royal Commission recommendation to require a Registered Nurse on duty 24/7 at every nursing home, a recommendation Labor has repeatedly backed. Scott Morrison never listens and never takes responsibility.
General practices face a backlog of patients in need of preventative and chronic-disease-related cardiovascular care. During a period of competing priorities, including the COVID-19 vaccine rollout, the role of practice #nurses has never been so critical.

@APNAnurses has joined peak nursing organisations across Australia to condemn the Morrison Govt's failure to protect nursing home residents, nurses and care workers from the ravages of COVID.
