Nurse and son face deportation over autism diagnosis

Growing up in the Philippines, Maria Sevilla

dreamed of one day becoming a nurse.

“The nurses used to travel using the pub-

lic transport and they were all wearing white

dresses,” she recalled.

“I said - ‘one day I am going to be in that

uniform and I’ll be a nurse’, but because at

the time my mum can’t afford to send me to a

nursing school, I ended up doing an engineer-

ing course in the public school.”

Years later, Maria’s aspirations became a re-

ality, when her mother and step-father urged

her to join them and move with her son Tyrone,

then aged two, to Townsville in Queensland.

“They offered to me if I wanted to study

nursing here in Australia. I was really over-

whelmed. I said - ‘yes, of course’.”

Maria studied the Diploma of Nursing at

TAFE and went on to complete her certifi-

cate three in aged care before completing her

Bachelor of Nursing Science at James Cook

University.

Fast forward four years and Maria is a reg-

istered nurse working in the rehabilitation ward

at the Townsville Hospital.

But Maria’s dreams of working as a nurse

and living with her family in Australia are at risk

after the Federal Government’s Migration Re-

view Tribunal denied her request for a Skilled

Regional Provisional visa because of Tyrone’s

autism, which he was diagnosed with in Aus-

tralia six months after their arrival.

Maria said the Immigration Department, in

a letter, rejected the visa application because

her son’s autism could be ‘a burden on the Aus-

tralian health system’.

Federal Immigration Minister Peter Dutton

now has the final say on Maria and Tyrone’s

future, and a decision on their deportation is

expected within 28 days.

“I’m just hoping that they will give Tyrone a

fair go and not label Tyrone as a burden to the

Australian society or any society because of his

autism,” Maria said.

“How would the Minister feel if his son was

labelled as a burden to society? You are strip-

ping away his chances of getting a bright future

in a safe environment and being with the rest

of his family.”

Tyrone does not speak Filipino and depor-

tation would force Maria and the 10-year-old

away from their family in Australia to the Phil-

ippines, where they have no close remaining

relatives or reliable health services.

Maria said deportation would also be ex-

tremely stressful for Tyrone who, due to his

autism, struggles with even small changes to

his routine.

The Queensland Nurses’ Union (QNU) has

rallied behind Maria and Tyrone.

QNU secretary Beth Mohle called on the

Minister to protect Tyrone instead of punishing

him for his condition.

“Tyrone’s mother Maria is a hard-working

and highly valued rehabilitation nurse who

helps patients who have lost limbs and suffered

spinal and brain injuries to rebuild their lives,”

she said.

“The QNU and the Australian public will rail

against any move to deport this child to the

Philippines.”

Maria said she’s been overwhelmed by the

support of her nursing and medical colleagues

and also the wider Australian community.

“Being a permanent nurse, that’s really a

part of my dreams and a part of it as well is be-

ing a resident here in Australia. I want to own

my own house for me and Tyrone.

Scheme attracts nurses and midwives to rural areas

Graduate nurses, midwives, sonographers

and specialists are continuing to be attracted

to rural and other hard-to-staff communities

in New Zealand.

Registrations for the 2015 intake of the na-

tion’s Voluntary Bonding Scheme, the seventh

intake of the incentive-based scheme, closed

on March 13.

The Health Workforce New Zealand ini-

tiative works to encourage nurses, midwives,

doctors, radiation therapists and medical

physicists into hard-to-staff specialities and

communities faced with higher vacancy rates,

greater locum use, longer waiting periods, and

a higher use of overseas trained professionals.

For the first time, sonographers were add-

ed to the list of high-demand professions this

year.

Health Workforce New Zealand manager

Ruth Anderson said more than 3500 graduates

have signed up to the scheme since it was first

introduced in 2009.

“When the scheme was first introduced,

there were 350 registrants on the scheme

across the eligible professions,” she said.

“Those numbers have been exceeded eve-

ry year and all eligible registrants have been

accepted on to the scheme, to date.

“Registrations generally fluctuate between

400-500 each year in response to the changes

in the hard-to-staff communities and special-

ties.”

Ms Anderson said hard-to-staff commu-

nities and specialties are revised each year,

through a nationwide stakeholder consulta-

tion, and are based on the needs of the New

Zealand workforce.

“The scheme is not just focused on specific

areas but is aimed at communities as a whole,”

she said.

“Rurality is a contributing factor with the

majority of hard-to-staff communities encom-

passing rural areas.

“The scheme is an important component of

an overall strategy to ensure New Zealand has a

workforce that is serving the needs of rural and

remote communities.

“The steady number of applicants to the

scheme shows that health professionals are go-

ing where they are needed most.”

Under the scheme, graduates are bonded

for a period of up to five years with participants

able to apply for reward payments after com-

pleting their bonding period.

Clinical Governance Guide for remote and isolated health

Nurses, midwives and allied health profes-

sionals have a practical guide to help them

navigate the unique challenges of clinical

governance while working in Australia’s re-

mote areas.

CRANAplus, the peak professional body

for the nation’s remote and isolated health

workforce, has developed a Clinical Govern-

ance Guide for health managers and clini-

cians.

The guide, designed for health centre

managers, nurses, midwives, allied health

professionals, doctors, Aboriginal and Torres

Strait Islander health care practitioners and

health workers, outlines the components and

processes for appropriate and effective clini-

cal governance and quality improvement for

remote and isolated health services.

CRANAplus professional officer Marcia

Hakendorf, a registered nurse and former SA

Health Department Nursing and Midwifery

policy advisor, says the resource simplifies

what clinical governance means to health

practitioners’ workplaces and their practices.

“There’s been a lot written about clinical

governance and it’s absolutely like a maze to

put the pieces together,” she says.

“So this was about demystifying and

grounding it for clinical managers and clini-

cians working in the bush.

“What we really wanted to do was to ensure that there was an effective and consistent standard of health ser-vice throughout remote and isolated areas of Australia, and it was also about improving the capacity of the remote health workforce in providing an effec-tive, consistent standard of health care to remote Australians.”

The guide provides clinicians with direc-

tion and guidance to ensure their health ser-

vice has robust clinical governance processes

focusing on the four pillars of remote clinical

governance - workforce effectiveness, clini-

cal performance and evaluation, clinical risk

management, and consumer participation.

“It also talks about the five components

of quality improvement for the remote sec-

tor such as organisational leadership and

strong management, quality improvement,

workforce development, environment and

cultural safety, and consumers and commu-

nity.”

The challenge when creating the guide

was to ensure it would be user-friendly, log-

ical and a practical resource for managers

and clinicians to refer to that complimented

the work of the NSQHS Standards from the

Australian Commission on Safety and Qual-

ity in Health Care (ACSQHC).

The guide is based on the National Safety

and Quality Health Service (NSQHS) Stand-

ards, which came into force in January 2013,

and particularly focuses on Standard One -

Governance for Safety and Quality in Health

Service Organisations and includes a refer-

ence to Standard Two - Partnership with Con-

sumers.

The Standards mainly cover hospital ser-

vices. CRANAplus received funding from the

Australian Government to produce a resource,

designed to compliment the Standards, that

would shine the spotlight on the complex is-

sues facing remote and isolated area health

service delivery.

The guide was conceived, researched and

written with direct input from clinicians work-

ing daily in the remote health context.

Since its completion in September 2013,

CRANAplus has distributed more than 930 of

the guides, which are also available online,

into the remote sector.

Ms Hakendorf says while health practition-

ers often understand what clinical governance

is and why they need it, they can struggle to

comprehend the ‘how’ of its implementation

when it comes to remote and isolated health.

“Remote areas have complexities including

implications of geographical location, the vast

distances, the social and cultural influences, the

professional isolation, and limited infrastructure

and communication resources,” she says.

“It’s a resource for managers and clinicians

to use to clarify - what does this mean, what

should be in place, what’s my responsibility as a

clinician and what’s my responsibility as a clini-

cal manager.

“This actually helps them to look at what

needs to be in place to provide safe, quality care

to remote and isolated communities.”

“This guide gives them a comprehensive

understanding of what needs to be in place for

the remote workforce covering all aspects of

clinical care from the recruitment processes,

use of evidence-based practice, the reporting

of incidences and having an incident manage-

ment system in place, audits, how you go about

continuous quality improvement, to the impor-

tance of engaging consumers in their care.”

The guide not only assists clinical manag-

ers and nurses, midwives and allied health pro-

fessionals on the ground, it ultimately results in

better care for patients, Ms Hakendorf adds.

“It’s about the practices, so that people

practice safely, reducing risks and ensuring

quality of care is given to clients and patients.”

CRANAplus will conduct a one-day work-

shop on the Clinical Governance Guide in the

lead up to the 2015 CRANAplus Conference

being held in Alice Springs from October 15-17.

Surgical Wounds – Part 2: Surgical site infections, post-operative wound complications and their management By Bonnie Fraser, RN, BSc, BNURS, Grad Dip ED

Part one of this series focused on types of

surgical wounds, their healing intention and

factors that influence healing. In this article we

will consider post-operative wound complica-

tions including surgical site infections (SSIs) and

briefly touch on management.

By definition, a surgical site

infection (SSI) is an infec-

tion that develops within

30 days after a surgical

procedure or within

one year if an implant

was inserted and the

infection appears

to be related to the

surgery (Gottrup,

Melling & Hollander,

2005). SSIs can be su-

perficial (occurring in the

dermal and sub-cutaneous

layers) or deep incisional in-

fections involving muscle and fas-

cia. Organ space SSIs occur in the body

organs or organ spaces. Some general factors

will increase a patient’s risk for SSI such as age,

obesity, malnutrition, malignant disease, im-

munosuppression, smoking, prolonged pre-

operative stay endocrine and metabolic dis-

orders e.g. diabetes, hypoxia and anaemia. .

Local factors (wound and periwound) include

the presence of necrotic tissue, foreign bodies,

tissue ischemia, haematoma formation and poor

surgical technique (Gottrup, Melling & Hollander,

2005). The degree of microbial contamination,

host susceptibility, type and virulence of organ-

isms; and antibiotic resistance will impact risk

(Gottrup, Melling & Hollander, 2005). There-

fore, it is important to monitor surgical wounds

closely for infection in order to prevent more

serious complications. Indications

that the patient has developed

a SSI include classic signs

of inflammation (redness,

swelling, heat, erythema

and increased pain);

increased exudate

that is cloudy, discol-

oured or malodor-

ous; increase in the

size of the wound or

wound dehiscence

(the wound breaks

down at the site of the

surgical incision); fever and

a general feeling of being un-

well or lethargic..

Other wound complications that one

might encounter in the post-operative pa-

tient include surgical wound dehiscence, dead

space, incisional hernias, fistula formation, con-

tact dermatitis; and haematoma formation and

bleeding. Surgical wound dehiscence and en-

terocutaneous fistula will be dealt with in the

next article due to the complexity of these com-

plications.

Sometimes due to the nature of the wound,

wound edges beneath the skin cannot be closely

approximated and separate resulting is dead space. For the full article visit HealthTimes.com.au

Air and/or fluid can get trapped between the tis-

sue layers, especially the fatty layer which has

a poor blood supply. Consequently serum or

blood may collect in the space providing an ex-

cellent medium for the growth of microorgan-

isms that cause infection. Many post-operative

wounds will have a drain inserted to facilitate

drainage while the subcutaneous tissues heal.

New or increased pain, induration on palpa-

tion and spreading erythema around the site of

the surgical incision and increased temperature

may indicate a collection has occurred. The pa-

tient may require systemic antibiotics or return

to theatre to have the collection drained and/

or a drain inserted to facilitate drainage until the

wound heals.

Incisional hernias are complications oc-

curring at the site of a previous incision that

develops in the abdominal wall. Muscles at the

incision site become weakened allowing inter-

nal tissues to protrude through the muscle (Mil-

likan, 2003). The hernia protrudes under the skin

and can be painful or tender to touch. SSI and

surgical wound dehiscence are the most com-

monly reported risk factors for incisional hernia

(Millikan, 2003). Other risk factors include male

gender, age, obesity, abdominal distension,

post-operative pulmonary complications, early

re-operation, underlying disease process, suture

material used in closure, choice of original inci-

sion and patient post-operative activity that may

place undue stress on the deeper tissues of the

abdominal wound (Millikan, 2003). Surgery may

be required to repair the defect, especially if the

hernia is causing problems. The use of lumbar

and abdominal support belts after abdominal

surgery can reduce the risk of incisional hernia

as they support the abdomen post-operatively.

Holding a pillow or rolled up towel against the

surgical site while coughing and moving can

also provide support and protect internal struc-

tures from undue stress and strain.

Haematoma formation and bleeding in

and around the surgical site is common.

Postoperative haematoma is basically a lo-

calised collection of blood at and/or around

the surgery site. It is defined as the collection

or pooling of blood under the skin, in body tis-

sues or an organ. Haematomas form when cap-

illaries, arteries or veins rupture, allowing blood

to leak into the surrounding tissues, causing a

pool of blood which eventually clots. Symptoms

usually appear within the first 24 hours – bruis-

ing, pain, swelling and tightness over the area. In

most cases the haematoma will be reabsorbed,

however some require drainage or surgical in-

tervention. If left untreated some haematomas

get large enough to compress the tissues pre-

venting oxygen from reaching the skin, increas-

ing the risk of other complications such as in-

fection, wound dehiscence and necrosis.

Contact dermatitis is a localised rash or ir-

ritation of the skin caused by contact with a for-

eign substance. The skin becomes red, sore or

inflamed after direct contact with a substance,

for example a dressing adhesive or retention

tapes e.g. micropore; or latex gloves. Contact

dermatitis can be irritant or allergic – always

ask the patient if they have allergies before ap-

plication of dressings or use of surgical gloves

which contain latex. Many hospitals now have

latex-free gloves for general use on the ward

and latex-free surgical gloves are available.

While most surgical wounds undergo pri-

mary closure, some are left to heal by second-

ary intention or undergo delayed primary clo-

sure. Regardless of the method of closure, the

aims of treatment are to disturb the wound as

little as possible to allow healing and prevent

infection, optimise patient comfort, encourage

early return to full functional activity and provide

education regarding the wound and self care

Geneva Healthcare

Preparing nurses for the Ebola frontlineAustralian health professionals are combatting the worst outbreak of the world’s deadliest disease in a foreign and inhospitable landscape. An Aussie nurse is behind the training that prepares our nurses and doctors for the challenges of working in the Australian-run Ebola Treatment Centre. By Sierra Leone

Jane Armstrong and her team at Aspen Medi-

cal had about 10 working days to pull togeth-

er the training designed to educate and prepare

health professionals being deployed

to the Australian-flagged front-

line in the fight against Ebola.

With almost 40 years’

clinical and training

experience, the reg-

istered nurse and

Aspen Medical train-

ing education and

development man-

ager had already be-

gun researching Ebola

when the Federal Gov-

ernment announced

in November 2014 that it

planned to establish an Ebola

Treatment Centre (ETC) in the

West African nation of Sierra Leone.

The Aspen Medical International Deploy-

ment Induction (AMIDI) for Sierra Leone was

created to complement three days of intensive

training on the ground in West Africa, where

there’s a focus on personal protection equip-

ment (PPE) coupled with four days of supervi-

sion in work areas.

The two and a half day pre-deployment

training program, based at Aspen Medical in

Canberra, has been built on the organisation’s

experience combined with consultation from its

subject matter experts and resources from the

international aid sector.

The training provides a grounding in areas

such as using the vital PPE, along with water,

sanitation and hygiene, clinical standard op-

erating procedures, child protection

awareness, post deployment

awareness and Aspen Medi-

cal’s Employee Assistance

Program.

What’s more, the

program aims to pre-

pare health work-

ers for more than

the clinical practice

of caring for pa-

tients and halting the

spread of Ebola. It also

focuses on the grim re-

ality of this extraordinary

and dangerous working envi-

ronment, including the prepara-

tion of wills.

The training also considers the cultural

sensitivities of working in Sierra Leone, from

supporting the families of the deceased to the

burial practices related to Ebola.

The medical company, which has a track

record of working with government and non-

government organisations to deliver essential

health care services in the wake of conflicts

or natural disasters, was awarded the contract

to run the 100-bed ETC for eight months. It

received more than 1000 applications from

health professionals wanting to join the Aus-

tralian response.For the full article visit HealthTimes.com.au

Aspen Medical has so far delivered five

training sessions to 76 health professionals and

environmental health officers, including 49

nurses.

Once trained, health professionals are de-

ployed for six to eight weeks, creating a team

of about 30 staff at the ETC. When they return,

workers begin a 21 day period of self-monitor-

ing for any Ebola symptoms.

Ms Armstrong, who worked as a nurse in

various public and private practices for 20 years

before moving into health promotion and then

into clinical educating, training and lecturing

roles, joined Aspen Medical in 2012.

She says some nurses and doctors often

enter the training with a level of uncertainty.

“However after three days of face to face

training and particularly the practical scenario

settings that we had prepared, it turned peo-

ple around so that staff ended up relieved that

they had some knowledge transfer and also felt

more confident and ready to be deployed,” she

says.

“That to me was really a hallmark of the ex-

pert training we were able to offer.”

The training provides the latest Ebola infor-

mation for staff deploying to the area, including

an overview of the disease and its transmission,

and also covers protocols and policies, com-

prising media relations and also the use of so-

cial media.

Staff are taken through clinical treatment

guidelines, infection control, the process of

putting on the PPE, which includes gumboots,

long cuffed double gloves and double masks,

and its safe use.

Clinicians spend three hours wearing the

PPE, where they participate in three different

scenarios.

The exercise is not designed to replicate

the experience of working at the ETC but gives

health workers an understanding of what it’s

like to provide treatment in the PPE, Ms Arm-

strong explains.

“You’ve just got a really hot environment,

you are in tremendously weighty gear and gum-

boots. It’s trying to do all of those wonderful

things that clinicians do but with all the gear on,”

she says.

At the ETC, health professionals are required

to wear the PPE in searing 40° heat. Due to the

sweltering conditions and the risk of heat stress,

clinicians spend 40 minutes working in the ETC

and then take a 40 minute break. Even so, some

workers have reported losing a kilo to a kilo and

a half within an hour.

“The bottom line is around raising aware-

ness on how that PPE feels and to experience

that - so the glasses fogging up, feeling sweaty

and feeling uncomfortable in the gear,” Ms Arm-

strong says.

The training also drives home the impor-

tance of team-work and protecting your work

‘buddy’ in the ETC.

“You could be in the red zone, treating West

Africans with Ebola, and your buddy notices that

your goggles have fogged,” Ms Armstrong says.

“Now immediately you have to stop what

you are doing and both you and the person with

the fogged goggles, so you and your buddy,

must leave the treatment centre, that’s the rule.

“That way there’s no opportunity for any-

thing to happen to you, we’d both leave the red

zone together.”

Facing language barriers and cultural dif-

ferences, Australian nurses and doctors are also

culturally orientated about the area that they’re

about to enter. It’s often a hostile environment,

where relatives of patients can shout and rat-

tle the cage surrounding the ETC in an attempt

to gain access, despite the risk of contracting

Ebola.

Importantly, clinicians are taught effective

communication and how to diffuse aggression

within the ETC.

Pain management program targets urban Indigenous people

Two Queensland allied health profession-

als have developed a culturally appropriate

chronic pain management program for urban

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

Psychologist Tabinda Basit, who works

at Brisbane’s Institute for Urban Indigenous

Health, and Dr Emma Campbell, an occupa-

tional therapist and associate lecturer at the

University of Queensland, created the Pain He-

roes self-management chronic pain

program due to a lack of cul-

turally responsive programs

for urban Indigenous

people.

Ms Basit said re-

search into chronic

pain prevalence in

Aboriginal and Tor-

res Strait Islander

people suggests

Indigenous people

have a unique expe-

rience when it comes

to chronic pain and its

response to different treat-

ments.

“If we know that the way they re-

spond to treatment is different then we should

have a treatment program that is distinctive for

that group of people and not a one-size-fits-all

approach,” she said.

The two non-Indigenous allied health

practitioners consulted with Aboriginal health

workers, dietitians, nurses, exercise physiolo-

gists and GPs to develop the health behaviour

change program for Aboriginal and Torres Strait

Islander people.

The Pain Heroes program, which provides

six information and discussion sessions, has

now been piloted at two health clinics.

The sessions feature topics covering - what

is chronic pain, the body systems that involve

chronic pain, relaxation strategies for pain and

medication, and also introduce clients to GPs

and allied health professionals in an informal

setting.

“I think one of the big aims of the program

is to actually increase access to allied health for

those clients,” Ms Basit said.

“They might have chronic pain

and only be seeing their GP. It’s

kind of about opening their

eyes and saying - well,

there are a lot of health

professionals that can

help you with this and

these are the differ-

ent things that they

do - so it’s not so

confronting.”

The sessions

are designed to build

knowledge and self-

management skills in In-

digenous people experiencing

chronic pain through a culturally

responsive framework that is group-fo-

cused, features a holistic model of health, and

also uses ‘yarning’ for peer-to-peer informa-

tion sharing.

“One of the practices that is highly valued

amongst Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander

people is having a yarn,” Ms Basit said.

“That is really the sharing of experiences

and it’s a real mutual process - which is what

we are trying to emulate.”

Ms Basit said the program, which has re-

ceived positive feedback, is continuing to

evolve from clients’ feedback, and is likely to be

rolled out at more clinics in Queensland.
