24.01.2022 Thank you for your courage, your patience and dedication to your job. We see you, and we thank you.

24.01.2022 ASK - Because a conversation could change a life Got a feeling that someone you know or care about it isn't behaving as they normally would? Perhaps they seem out of sorts? More agitated or withdrawn? Or they're just not themselves. Trust that gut instinct and act on it. By starting a conversation and commenting on the changes you've noticed, you could help that family member, friend or workmate open up. If they say they are not OK, you can follow our conversation steps to sh...ow them they're supported and help them find strategies to better manage the load. If they are OK, that person will know you're someone who cares enough to ask. https://youtu.be/ALcTGgr8z3k

21.01.2022 WORLD HEART DAY 2020 #UseHeart is about using Your head: ... To understand what it takes to live a heart-healthy life and to act on that knowledge, changing your behaviour for a better quality of life now and in the future. Your influence: - As an individual to set an example for your loved ones. - As a healthcare professional to help your patients make positive changes for their heart health. - As an employer to invest in the heart health of your employees. - As a government to implement policies and initiatives that will lead to better societal heart health, such as sugar taxes, smoking bans and reducing air pollution. Your compassion: To look beyond the self and act in ways that support the most vulnerable in society; those with underlying heart-related conditions that may put them at greater risk in the time of COVID-19.

17.01.2022 The theme of World Breastfeeding Week 2020 is Support breastfeeding for a healthier planet. Breastfeeding provides every child with the best possible start in life. It delivers health, nutritional and emotional benefits to both children and mothers. And it forms part of a sustainable food system. But while breastfeeding is a natural process, it is not always easy. Mothers need support both to get started and to sustain breastfeeding. Together, through commitment, concert...ed action and collaboration, we can ensure that every mother has access to skilled breastfeeding support, empowering her to give her baby the best possible start in life. Support breastfeeding for a healthier planet! #WBW2020

15.01.2022 #CHRISTMAS DECOS COMP WINNERS Mayor Rhys Williams and Aboriginal elder and community leader George Walley from both Nidjalla Waangan Mia and our Community Board of Advice had the difficult task of choosing which of our wards had put on the best Christmas display this year. The pair eventually settled on the rehabilitation ward after inspecting a strong field of decorations, with the Whelan ward coming a close runner-up, recognising our initiative to support dement...ia patients through the use of a sunflower tool. Thanks for being our judges guys, and congrats to all the staff who took this year’s competition seriously and have made Peel Health Campus a Christmassy place to be! #Christmasspirit #peoplecaringforpeople

15.01.2022 Sleep Awareness Week draws attention to the importance of sleep as a vital component of a healthy lifestyle. Everyone deserves a good night’s rest, so you can wake up feeling refreshed and ready to take on the day. Unfortunately, sometimes it can be hard to get that good night’s sleep, which can cause undue stress and fatigue. Top Tip ... Getting into a regular bedtime pattern can help your body set its internal body clock. Going to bed at a regular time will let your body acclimatise to a pattern, meaning that you’ll likely get naturally sleepy at a specific time and start waking up at a consistent time. The amount of sleep you need to properly function will be somewhere in the range of 6 to 8 hours, so it’s best to work with what you feel is best for your body and plan your sleep schedule around that. The more often you keep to your sleep schedule, the more likely it is that you’ll achieve a night of restful sleep.

13.01.2022 This week Peel Health Campus has implemented a new COVID-19 screening process, using a smart phone tool, to all visitors. Everyone who visits PHC is greeted by our fantastic Friends of the Hospital volunteers at the front door, who run through some questions to make sure they, and the people around them, are protected from the spread of COVID-19. The screening system requires you to scan a unique QR code using the camera function on your smart phone before entering the hospital. Read more about the screening process and find the QR code in our health column: https://www.peelhealthcampus.com.au/Community/Health-Blog Please note, if you complete the survey prior to entering the hospital please ensure this is done on the day you are visiting as the code is only valid for 24 hours.

13.01.2022 PANDA Week 2020 Many are surprised to learn that perinatal anxiety and depression also affects men. One in ten expecting or new dads will be affected.

13.01.2022 CHECK-IN The coronavirus pandemic comes as many Australians are still feeling the impact of recent bushfires, floods and drought. It’s very normal to not feel OK in challenging times such as these. Watching and listening to media and social media coverage and commentary can be confronting and confusing. However, at a time when we’re being asked to physically distance ourselves from one another, we can make use of freed up diary time and our digital devices to stay connected.... Pop a reminder in your diary to call them in a couple of weeks. If they're really struggling, follow up with them sooner. You could say: "I've been thinking of you and wanted to know how you've been going since we last chatted." Ask if they've found a better way to manage the situation. If they haven't done anything, don't judge them. They might just need someone to listen to them for the moment. Stay in touch and be there for them. Genuine care and concern can make a real difference.

12.01.2022 In this most unusual and difficult year, Perinatal Anxiety and Depression Action Week is more important than ever. With many expecting and new parents struggling due to COVID-19, it’s critical that we work together to support families facing mental health challenges at this time. #TellSomeoneWhoCares #PANDAWeek2020 #Ramsayhealthcare Find a service at: ... https://www.ramsayhealth.com.au/Find-a-Service/Mental-Health or https://www.ramsayhealth.com.au/Find-a-Service/Maternity See more

07.01.2022 Encourage Action Ask: "What have you done in the past to manage similar situations?" Ask: "How would you like me to support you?"... Ask: "What's something you can do for yourself right now? Something that's enjoyable or relaxing?" You could say: "When I was going through a difficult time, I tried this... You might find it useful too." If they've been feeling really down for more than 2 weeks, encourage them to see a health professional. You could say, "It might be useful to link in with someone who can support you. I'm happy to assist you to find the right person to talk to." Be positive about the role of professionals in getting through tough times.

02.01.2022 OLYMPIC STAR INSPIRES RAMSAY STAFF ON R U OK? DAY Olympic swimming champion Brooke Hanson OAM has praised the amazing work of Ramsay Health Care workers during the COVID-19 pandemic, as part of an inspiring webinar to mark R U OK? Day. The national day of action encourages Australians to ask friends, family and colleagues R U OK? if someone in their world is struggling with life’s ups and downs.... Ms Hanson told the hundreds of Ramsay staff who joined the webinar, it was important people take time out for themselves and celebrate their small achievements, not only the big ones. You have all gone above and beyond during this COVID-19 pandemic and you’ve done so much for our country, Ms Hanson said. You won’t always get credit but know that you are loved and supported by so many Australians and we wouldn’t have gotten through this without you. So many times you’ve done fantastic things at work but you may not take time out with colleagues to pat yourselves on the back and say well done. You really need to reach out to each other and celebrate - it can just be as simple as saying ‘hey, well done’. Ms Hanson, an Olympic gold and silver medallist, world champion and former world record holder, delivered an inspirational hour-long presentation, where she spoke of the immense challenges she has faced - not only in pursuing her sporting dream but also in her private life, with the loss of her second child Jack at just nine months old. There have been times where I haven’t been ok, the 42 year old said. I held my son Jack for his last breath and it showed me how precious and short life can be. I’d give all my Olympic achievements, all those medals, away if I could have just one more cuddle with my little man. We had to say goodbye to him and that was the saddest day of my life, Ms Hanson said. The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well. We’re all going to struggle with mental health at some point and we all have to conquer and support each other. It’s why R U OK? Day is so important. Ms Hanson spoke of the importance of self-love and self-care - which included a healthy diet, exercise and getting plenty of sleep. It’s one of those magical things, exercise, healthy living and eating can make a big difference, she said. The link to Ms Hanson’s powerful webinar will be available to the Ramsay workforce on the intranet to watch at a time convenient for them. She has also written a book, When Silver is Gold, with all profits from the sale of each copy donated to Life’s Little Treasures Foundation in memory of her son Jack.

01.01.2022 Listen with an open mind If you are concerned about someone, trust your gut and ask, Are you OK?. Listen with an open mind to what they have to say and ask them what you can do to help. In the current circumstances, there might be limits on what you can do but you can definitely be a listening ear and a (virtual) shoulder to lean on. Take what they say seriously and don't interrupt or rush the conversation.... Don't judge their experiences or reactions but acknowledge that things seem tough for them. If they need time to think, sit patiently with the silence. Encourage them to explain: "How are you feeling about that?" or "How long have you felt that way?" Show that you've listened by repeating back what you've heard (in your own words) and ask if you have understood them properly. https://rmsyhc.com/3ia5PHZ

01.01.2022 It was NAIDOC week last week and we celebrated our ongoing partnership with Nidjalla Waangan Mia by exchanging paintings. We’re looking forward to hanging it up as a reminder of the spiritual and cultural connection of First Nations people to Australia.
