Our long-awaited $16 million building and refurbishment program moved into delivery stage in this financial year. Progress has been rapid, with work proceeding on budget and on time for all the major works so far. In total, there have been five major projects completed or commenced in this financial year – a huge undertaking by any estimate. It is a credit to the development teams both here at the Hospital and with our contracting partners, that all of these projects have progressed rapidly. We have continued to provide all services with absolutely minimal interruption and at the high level that the community and we expect. The initial project involved the upgrading of the Oncology Unit and represented an important advance for cancer treatment services in Mildura. The upgrade doubled the capacity of the unit to eight chairs, ensuring many more people can have treatment close to home and within reach of their support networks. With the completion of this project we implemented an Oncology Telemedicine Service in November – a first for our region. As the oncology upgrade was completed, the most significant phase of the Hospital redevelopment program was beginning – the expansion of the Emergency Department, Maternity Ward and Mental Health Services areas. These projects represent the biggest expansion and upgrade of the Hospital’s infrastructure since it opened in 2000. Work began on November 21 and will be completed on schedule at the end of the 2014 calendar year. It was pleasing also to make a start to the accommodation development in Thirteenth Street, near the old Mildura Base Hospital. This will provide an appropriate and appealing housing option for students and clinicians and will be of ongoing assistance in recruiting and retaining quality health professionals to our region. The recruitment and retention of medical staff continues to be a major challenge for all rural and remote hospitals. However, we have had a successful year in this area, with surgical appointments to Oncology, Ear, Nose and Throat, Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Paediatrics, Orthopaedics and Nephrology. In addition, we have successfully recruited an additional anaesthetist, and extra rotational doctors and general surgeons. In addition to the progress outlined above, in the past year our successful efforts to secure additional services and staff have also included: • Successful funding application and recruitment of a full time Breast Cancer Nurse • Installation of 128 Slice CT Scanner – enabling cardiac investigations • Funding for expansion of special care nursery and development of resuscitation area • Establishment of Pain Service • Increased Clinics (including Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Ear Nose and Throat) • Funding for E-Records and new patient management computer system • Funding for new sterilisers, to be installed January 2015 • Successful submission for headspace unit for youth mental health • Successful submission for Prevention And Recovery Care unit for adult mental health • Car Park expansion • Successful funding application for development of Aboriginal Healing Centre Mildura Base Hospital Annual Report 2013/2014 In terms of Indigenous health, we completed an “Improving Care for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders” Plan in November. We have since formalised and strengthened our relationships with the Mallee District Aboriginal Services and Dareton Community Health. The Hospital’s Koori Health Unit staff continue to provide support and advocacy to ensure our services are culturally appropriate to Indigenous community members. Mildura Base Hospital is working constantly to improve its effectiveness as the region’s acute care health service provider. The Medical Advisory Committee under the chairmanship of Dr Alison Walker provides essential support in clinical matters and policy development and I thank them for their commitment. We continue to focus additional resources on identifying and addressing particular health needs within our community and region. To this end, I am grateful for the support, insight and input from the Community Advisory Board.This voluntary group, under the chairmanship of Vernon Knight, provides an important conduit between the community and hospital. Finally, I would like to express my sincere appreciation to our staff, medical staff and management team. It has been an extraordinarily challenging year and this hardworking group of people has, again, risen to the challenge. It is testimony to their commitment that, under the circumstances, the Hospital has continued to provide a great service to our community Dane Huxley Chief Executive Officer 3 4 Mildura Base Hospital Annual Report 2013/2014 2013-14 – A Year of Progress This has been a year of unprecedented development and expansion at Mildura Base Hospital.

VHIMS provides the hospital with a standard electronic method (which is used within all Victorian public hospitals) of reporting, recording and tracking incidents that occur within the health setting (RiskMan). This ensures that if things go wrong, the hospital has a procedure in place for reporting and managing clinical incidents. All clinical incidents and near misses are reported into the RiskMan database which promotes timely and effective communication and subsequent review of incidents/events. VHIMS not only encourages the collection of relevant details about clinical incidents, but also ensures that pertinent strategies/initiatives are undertaken to ensure patient safety is maintained and that any identified issues are addressed to prevent and/or minimise the likelihood of a similar incident occurring again. Compliments and complaints received (July 2013- June 2014) 25 20 15 10 5 0 Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Complaints Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Compliments Complaints and Compliments Comparison of annual data Clinical Incidents During 2013 - 2014 clinical related incidents accounted for 72% of all reported incidents. Utilising the standardised VHIMS incident severity rating (ISR) score – severe, moderate, mild and no harm/near miss to categorise incidents the hospital had the following incidents reported: • Severe = 1% clinical incidents • Moderate = 4% clinical incidents • Mild = 45% clinical incidents • No harm/Near miss = 50% clinical incidents. 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% Severe Moderate Mild No harm / Near miss Non-clinical related incidents (OH&S and Hazards) accounted for 28% of all reported incidents. The hospital also utilises this same database to record reported Consumer Feedback (compliments and complaints). Feedback (Complaints and Compliments): The hospital appreciates all feedback about the services that are provided and the manner in which they are delivered. All feedback is seen by the hospital as an opportunity to improve performance and service delivery. Feedback provides the hospital with information about the patient/consumer experience (both positive and negative). As with incident notification, the hospital also utilises the Victorian Health Incident Management System (VHIMS) to record and monitor reported patient/consumer feedback (compliments and complaints). The RiskMan database (Feedback module) of VHIMS enables electronic recording of feedback details, the seriousness/severity of the feedback and the outcome for the patient/consumer. This provides a streamlined approach to ensure that feedback is recorded, investigated and followed up in a timely manner and provides an appropriate resolution to the patient/consumer. It also allows the hospital to effectively report and track feedback received. The hospital’s reporting processes also ensures that monthly reports are provided to the hospital’s Executive Team and Community Advisory Board. In early June 2013, the hospital implemented a new brochure titled “Tell us about your experience – Patient/Consumer Feedback”. The brochure provides some basic information about who our patients and /or families may talk to if they have any concerns or are unhappy about any aspect of their healthcare. The brochure also provides some more specific details about how to provide formal feedback to the hospital, which may be either a compliment, suggestion or complaint.
