Getting inspired by the clinicians improving care for Victorians living with #heartfailure at the #HFcollab learning sesh today #whatmatterstoyou? #wmty #100000lives @SaferCareVic @TheIHI

[Kaz Redmond @kazredmond]

Obviously it's not all obstetric dances and placenta cakes, this group of clinicians and consumers are doing serious work and making widespread improvements in care through collaboration #pphvic @TheIHI @SaferCareVic #100000lives

[Kaz Redmond @kazredmond]

We have completed LS2 for the PPH collab and I could not be more proud of our teams, 150 clinicians all working so hard to improve #pph care for families in Victoria #pphvic @TheIHI @SaferCareVic

[Kaz Redmond @kazredmond]

My wildest dreams involve hospitals full of healthcare workers, spending their days providing individualised, patient centred care because they don't have to deal with all the other crap they usually do. #LISN is a step toward that! @northernhealth_

[Kaz Redmond @kazredmond]

Learning improvement science (and getting crafty with pipe cleaners) at @northernhealth_'s LISN course, all hospital staff should have access to this kind of training @SaferCareVic #improvementscience #hro #modelforimprovement #improvement #andon #pipelcleaners

@mindbodymiko Thank you for sharing your story and having the balls to challenge the system! It's crazy we allow this culture to exist, it needs to stop if we're serious about #healthcareworker #wellbeing. Being repeatedly berated by surgeons certainly did not spark joy at work for me..

[Kaz Redmond @kazredmond]

Just finished reading the heartbreaking autobiography of Dr Yumi Kadota @mindbodymiko. I was an RN in #interventionalcardiology for 18yrs, the repeated incidences of harassment, bullying and differential treatment to male colleagues resonated deeply.

One team took this on board after hearing from our wonderful lived experience experts at LS1 and a few days later tested & implemented having a designated midwife allocated to this role, one month on and the staff and patient feedback is nothing short of inspiring #wmty #pphvic

[Kaz Redmond @kazredmond]

I am extremely proud to be part of the @SaferCareVic and @TheIHI PPH collaborative that has been asking 'What matters to you?' since we kicked off in April. One answer was 'better communication and support during PPH' and our fantastic teams listened #pphvic #wmty22 #wmty

[Kaz Redmond @kazredmond]

It can be as simple as using their chosen name, charging their phone or putting 4 sugars in their tea, asking a patient 'What matters to you?' is the first step toward providing care that is truly patient centred #Wmty22

[Safer Care Victoria @SaferCareVic]

This What Matters to You? Day, Victorian clinicians and consumers share their thoughts on why asking ‘what matters’ is so important in improving experiences and outcomes for older people. #WMTY #AgeFriendly #100000lives @TheIHI @WmtyWorld

[#LeadOnNCDs @WePublicHealth]

A question from audience - 'is there one thing that health services can do to ensure the Indigenous community feel safe and welcome in our services [if not ACCHO]?' Brown responds - understand, take time to listen. If you don't know the answer, be honest & find out #GiantSteps22

[Rebecca Power @Rebecca62762]

Wow I thought I was joining a session on data, but even better I have entered a new business in quality and safety. Learning in action. @SaferCareVic @LisaMckenzie_1 @BecReedOT #GiantSteps22

[Rebecca Tivendale @becpaptiv]

Time to ask out staff #whatmattertoyou.
Thank you for an amazing panel session. How we can spark joy in our tired burnout healthcare workforce.

[VACCHO @VACCHO_org]

At today's @SaferCareVic’s #GiantSteps22 panel our deadly Executive Director, Sheree Lowe, reiterated what we know to be true - Aboriginal health has to be in Aboriginal hands in order to close the healthcare gap. Systems should value Aboriginal ways of knowing, being and doing.
