St. Vincent’s Healthcare Group Limited - Annual Review 2007 Allied Health Professionals - Physiotherapy Department Multi-disciplinary Education In collaboration with Nursing Practice Development, Joanne Barry Senior Physiotherapist in Critical Care, commenced teaching a module in suctioning and humidification as part of the bi-annual the multi-disciplinary tracheostomy-training day. Ergonomics 10 bariatric patients were admitted to SVUH in 2007. The small library of bariatric equipment maintained by ergonomics was extended and a bariatric policy was drafted for circulation in 2008. An evaluation of electric beds was completed to aid selection for purchase in 2008. Theresa Flynn is currently working with the HSA to develop FETAC standards for Manual Handling training and to develop video training clips on MH risk assessment for the HSA web site. An Eight day in-house course was provided in May to train 7 staff members to become Instructors in Moving and Handling. Course participants came from Nursing, Portering, Physiotherapy and Catering. A hospital wide patient handling risk assessment form (Easymove form) was launched in October 2007 after a gradual rollout process over the last few years. Management A 2 day course in business planning was developed and provided to seniors in September and October. Topics covered included the business planning framework in an Irish context, service and client analysis, process mapping, measuring throughput capacity, service evaluation and effective communication in the planning process. Each team developed a service plan for their area and identified changes that might enable a more streamlined provision of service. The aim with management training for seniors would be to enable them to implement modifications to their service as patient’s needs change.
