Design: A nn-randmised, cntrlled trial. Participants: Older adults admitted t 7 acute hspitals in rural Australia. Interventin (n=270) patients were >65 years with a diagnsis f dementia r delirium r had risk factrs fr delirium and received vlunteer services. Cntrl (n=188) patients were admitted t the same hspital 12 mnths prir t the vlunteer prgram and wuld have met eligibility criteria fr the vlunteer prgram, had it existed. Interventin: Trained vlunteers prvided 1:1 persn centred care with a fcus n nutritin and hydratin supprt, hearing and visual aids, activities, and rientatin. Measures: Medical recrd audits prvided data n vlunteer visits, diagnses, length f stay (LOS), behaviural incidents, readmissin, specialling, mrtality, admissin t residential care, falls, pressure ulcers and medicatin use. Results: Acrss all sites, there was a significant reductin in rates f 1:1 specialling and 28 day readmissin fr patients receiving the vlunteer interventin. LOS was significantly shrter fr the cntrl grup. All ther patient utcmes were equivalent fr the interventin and cntrl grup. Cnclusin: The vlunteer interventin is a safe, effective and replicable way t supprt lder acute patients with dementia, delirium r risk factrs fr delirium in

Backgrund: This research explred the effectiveness f a new rural Triage and Emergency Care Supprt (TECS) service in Suthern NSW Lcal Health District (SNSWLHD) fr Mental Health cnsumers, their carer s, families, medical prfessinals, hspitals staff and thers calling the NSW Mental Health (MH) Line, seeking supprt and directin fr the right care fr them. The service is prvided by lcal, rural and experienced mental health clinicians. The primary bjective f this study was t examine if this mve back t a mre lcally based service ffered any benefits fr clients f the service. Methd: An audit f the MH line in SNSWLHD between March 2014 and April 2016 was perfrmed using archival data recrds frm calls t the MH Line and 5333 MH hspital presentatins t 12 hspitals in the LHD t explre any change in planned and unplanned emergency department (ED) presentatins. A review f 204 call recrdings was cmpleted t identify ptential factrs that culd be assciated with de escalatin in client symptms therefre reducing the hspital presentatins using the Behaviur Change frm. Results: Results using a paired t test indicated a significant decrease in the rate f ED presentatins pst TECS by 5.6 MH presentatins per 100 calls t the MH line.

5 BHRF Abstract Submissin2018 What factrs influence the delivery f lifestyle risk cmmunicatin by registered nurses in Australian general practice? Preliminary findings. Backgrund/Intrductin As the burden f chrnic disease increases, nurses have the ptential t embrace engagement in lifestyle risk reductin activities. General practice nurses, in particular, have prlnged engagement with patients, which facilitate behaviur change interventins. Until nw, little is knwn abut what factrs influence its delivery in clinical practice. Methds/Strategies Embedded within a mixed methds apprach, this qualitative descriptive study sught t understand general practice nurse (GPN) experiences f lifestyle risk cmmunicatin. Thirteen GPNs were recruited frm Suth East New Suth Wales. Semi structured interviews were audi recrded with thematical analysis f verbatim transcriptins infrmed by Braun and Clarke (2006). Results/Outcmes Nurses perceived lifestyle risk cmmunicatin as cntingent upn GPN persnal and prfessinal needs, patient need and receptiveness, and structural supprts. Rle navigatin, rapprt building and GPN preparedness fr lifestyle risk cmmunicatin guided GPN persnal and prfessinal needs. Patient need and receptiveness was assessed thrugh the patient s willingness fr engagement and priritisatin f risk factrs. Structural supprts deemed necessary fr lifestyle risk cmmunicatin, such as time allcatin as well as rganisatinal and cllabrative supprt, were seen as bth enablers and barriers. Cnclusins/Implicatins Behaviurs impacting n lifestyle risk are mdifiable, ften requiring supprt fr lasting change. Behaviural cunselling f these risks is effective in general practice. Understanding factrs, which influence GPN prvisin f lifestyle risk cmmunicatin will prvide new knwledge infrming clinical practice, nurse educatin, service delivery and plicy.

Purpse Internatinalisatin at Hme enables students t have a glbal experience and engage with internatinal students withut leaving hme (Teekens, 2015). The use f technlgy such as scial media can prvide a viable mechanism by which this can be achieved (Beleen & Jnes, 2015). This medium prvides students with an pprtunity t share ideas, develp digital cmmunicatin skills and enrich their learning experience (Schmitt, Sims-Giddens & Bth, 2012). The purpse f this prject was t explre and evaluate the use f a blg t stimulate discussin between Canadian and Australian nursing students fcusing n culture and family. Methds Australian and Canadian students participated in an internatinal, crss-cultural activity that prvided an pprtunity t engage with each ther thrugh a shared blg experience. This learning and teaching activity was imbedded within a Bachelr f Nursing subject at each University and included students frm reginal campuses including Bega campus. Students wh tk part in the internatinal blg were invited t evaluate the activity thrugh an annymus nline questinnaire. The survey assisted instructrs t identify the strengths and limitatins f the activity, illuminate areas fr imprvement and determine if it wuld be wrthwhile repeating the activity in future. Results: Students reprted the activity t be a wrthwhile learning experience using a unique learning medium that imprved their persnal and prfessinal knwledge f culture and family. In additin, the activity helped develp their digital technlgy skills and enhance their understanding f anther persn s perspective thrugh interactin with students frm anther cuntry.

10 ABSTRACT: Bega Health Research Frum 2018 Title: Medical cnsults via telehealth in rural emergency departments: a systematic review Authrs: Dt Hughes, Nurse Manager Initiatives & Prjects, Suthern NSW Lcal Health District, Queanbeyan, NSW, Australia Tania Dufty, Registered Nurse, ACT, Australia Ingrid Evans, Epidemilgist, Suthern NSW Lcal Health District, Queanbeyan, NSW, Australia Backgrund: Equitable access t health care in rural areas is limited by gegraphy, time and distance. Wrkfrce shrtages are cmmn, and a number f patients wh require a medical cnsult will present t small rural emergency departments (ED) when n dctr is available. Apprach: In 2018, the LHD intends t trial using telehealth t link the Delegate and Bmbala MPS Emergency Departments t a dctr in a larger hspital such as Cma r Queanbeyan. T supprt this wrk, we aimed t synthesise the literature regarding medical cnsultatins perfrmed via telehealth in rural EDs, and t identify factrs assciated with feasibility, effectiveness and sustainability. We cnducted a systematic review f the literature using accepted methds. We searched peer-reviewed electrnic databases fr articles published since Search terms were related t telehealth, telemedicine, rural, remte, emergency and cnsultatin. Of 833 recrds identified and screened, 98 full-text articles were assessed fr eligibility, and 20 studies were included in the final review. Outcmes: Telehealth was fund t be cst-effective (5 studies), technically feasible (6 studies) and imprved accessibility by enabling lcal treatment (4 studies). Telehealth was acceptable (8 studies), reduced transfer rates and increased discharge frm rural EDs (5 studies). Clinical care was determined as meeting required quality r safety (5 studies) and wrkfrce satisfactin, recruitment and retentin (4 studies). Cnclusin: Telehealth has the ptential t reslve the barriers t health care access experienced by rural cmmunities. Prviding equitable, safe and effective care using telehealth culd be cst effective and reduce the need fr sme patient grups t travel t referral hspitals. Oral presentatin preferred
