MAJOR OPERATION
Did you see the concrete trucks lined up at Blacktown
on Thursday?
It took 75 truckloads of concrete to create the first
part of our level 3 floor slab. All up, we poured 430
cubic metres of concrete or enough to fill 16,000 milk
crates (if they didn’t have holes in them).
In the new acute services building, this level will
include the new main entry and theatres, and it was
the theatre slab that was going in this week.
Needless to say it was a major operation…

theatre.
Thanks to for A W Edwards for the site images.

DIGITAL FUTURE BEHIND THE SCENES
READ ALL ABOUT IT
THEATRE GOERS: Mount Druitt Hospital stage 2 includes a
new digital theatre, now handed over to the hospital team
for commissioning,
It’s part of the surgical expansion which includes the pre-
admission clinic and recovery ward.
We think it scrubs up pretty well.
POWER SOURCE: Commissioning continues on our
new MRI machine at Mount Druitt.
Team members Fotini and Patrick discuss the next
steps with specialist technician Sandeep ahead of its
opening later this year.
DRUG HEALTH NEWS: Our
Centre for Addiction Medicine
at Mount Druitt will be a
standalone facility dedicated
to treatment, counselling and
support for drug, alcohol and
other clients.
Services will start to open in
the new facility from early
September and clients can
read all about it in the patient
information flier now
available from the CAMs
team, or on the project
website.

MAROONED
CHOOSE LIFE
HOPE LIVES HERE: The Relay for Life team from NSW
Cancer Council were drumming up support in Hospital Street
this week, with some help from Dougal the Bear. They will be
back for another Purple Day on 18 October. For more info,
and details about the Blacktown relay, visit relayforlife.org.au
FLYING THE FLAG: Our car park crane has a new name
flag and, true to our word, it’s maroon.
You may remember that we lost a State of Origin bet with
our Queensland-mad colleagues on who would take out
the coveted trophy this year, so we have dutifully supplied
and installed the maroon flag.
As far as we’re concerned, it’s just dark pink, Very, very
dark pink.

Katherine from NSW Ambulance with Alix, Suzanne, Luke and Steve in ED
Despite a massive spike in gastro, flu and winter
presentations, our Blacktown Hospital Emergency
Department managed to discharge 100% of
non-admitted patients within four hours on
Saturday 19 August.
Emergency head A/Prof Reza Ali said it was a
significant achievement on one of the year’s
busiest days, and proved that Project RED
initiatives are making a real difference to patients.
“A 100% score would not have been achievable
without the changes we’ve made through Project
RED,” Reza said.
“This is a direct result of the team approach, and
the hard work of all staff in embracing changes like
the morning huddle, in and out flow roles, and our
new SAU and EDSSU.”
Project RED sponsor Luke Elias said the numbers
demonstrate that Project RED is really influencing
the amount of time patients spend in ED, and how
efficiently they are triaged, treated and
discharged, or transferred.
Luke said the numbers were important, but only
because they validate the improvements to the
patient experience.
“People can get focused on the emergency
treatment performance numbers, and they are
important to monitor and evaluate our
performance, but when we look at the data we’re
really looking for improvements in patient
experience,” Luke said.
“This week we’ve clearly seen that improvement.
“The stats indicate we are continuing to head in
the right direction, even taking into account the
winter factors, and that’s hands down due to the
efforts of our staff.
“We are grateful to the medical leadership of Dr
Reza Ali, our nursing leaders Bronwyn Merritt,
Joanne Scullion and Aileen Tadiaman, and to all
our ED and hospital staff for rising to the
challenge,” Luke said.
Congratulations team - job well done!
