12.01.2022 Invitation to Participate in CoPE-HCP Survey The COVID-19 pandemic has led to unprecedented strain to healthcare systems, worldwide, and posed unique challenges to the healthcare professionals and the general public. These changes may have a physical and emotional impact on the healthcare professionals, more than the other professionals. I would like to invite you to share your insights and experience in a CoPE-HCP study, collecting anonymised data in the form of an approxim...ately 15-minute survey. The study has been reviewed and approved by an ethics committee. The main aims of the study are to explore the physical, psychological and social effects of the current pandemic on healthcare professionals and to compare those with the effects experienced by other non-healthcare professionals. In many countries during the pandemic, the only accessible healthcare professional has been the local community pharmacist. I think it’s important we gather as much input from pharmacists as possible. If you would like to participate, please click on this link to access the survey: https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/GHR673M

07.01.2022 New asthma guidelines what’s changed? Free webinar for health professionals An interdisciplinary webinar on 29 September, presented by NPS MedicineWise and developed in partnership with the National Asthma Council Australia, will discuss the recent changes to asthma guidelines and what they mean in practice. The free one-hour webinar for GPs, pharmacists and nurses will be broadcast live on Tuesday 29 September 2020, 7:00 8:00 pm AEST, with an on-demand recording availab...le shortly afterwards. Important changes to the way mild asthma can be managed for people aged 12 years and over have been announced with the release of the Australian Asthma Handbook V2.1. Most significant of these is the new indication of an inhaled anti-inflammatory reliever. Facilitated by NPS MedicineWise medical adviser and general practitioner Dr Jill Thistlethwaite, the webinar will provide information on why this new guideline signals a significant change in how asthma medications can be used for mild asthma. Discussion will cover: Australian asthma guideline changes for the management of mild asthma in adults and adolescents (12 years and over). Where the changes fit in clinical practice and what they mean for health professionals and consumers. Ensuring a patient-centred approach to decision making about treatment options. The new guidelines also include a focus on the underuse of preventer medicines by people with asthma and the corresponding over-reliance on reliever medications, says Dr Thistlethwaite. Following the National Asthma Council’s webinar on the launch of the updated Australian Asthma Handbook on September 1, this webinar focuses on what this update means for clinical practice, she says. The webinar panel includes a GP - Professor Amanda Barnard (Chair of the Australian Asthma Handbook Guidelines Committee); an Advanced Practice Pharmacist - Debbie Rigby; a registered nurse and asthma and respiratory educator Marg Gordon, and a consumer representative - Rebecca Edwards. Participation in the webinar counts as a CPD activity for GPs, pharmacists and accredited nurses. To find out more and to register for the 29 September webinar, go to the NPS MedicineWise website. Registrations close 28 September. https://www.nps.org.au//new-asthma-guidelines-whats-changed

01.01.2022 Palliative Care Survey The Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care and the Australian Government Department of Health are working together to deliver the National Palliative Care Strategy 2018. It prioritises the need for early planning and referral to palliative care for people affected by life-limiting illnesses.

In March the survey was piloted and now the Commission is seeking the opinions from all healthcare workers to determine the: Tools used by healthcare workers to identify patients nearing the end of life; Extent to which these tools are used within different settings; and Facilitators and barriers for using the tools.
