FINALS TIME

FLASHBACK FRIDAY: Early in the Stage 1 planning, a

community member put up her hand in a forum and said,

wouldn’t it be great if carers had somwhere to stay with a

patient? That one comment led to the creation of carer

zones, a first for Australian hospitals.

Four years down the track, the carer zones have been

nominated for swag of honours, and this week we found out

that our carer zone poster submission is a finalist for a

prestigious APAC Award.

Here’s a flashback of patient & carer experience manager

Wendy and consumer rep Judith checking out the carer zone

protoype room in 2015.

They looked pretty happy with the sample room back then,

but they’re even happier now!

Preliminary surveys show carer zones improve staff/patient

communication by 94%, significantly reduce anxiety and

improve the hospital experience.

Congratulations to the project team and its partners,

consumers and carers for a job well done.

Regardless of the results next week, you’re winners to us!

DYNAMIC DUO

NEW IDEAS: Matt tests out some prototype furniture for

the new ways of working B2Hub. In the B2Hub, the

workspaces match the type of work we need to do. No-one

“owns” a desk like an open plan office, and there are no hot

desks either. This is a sample of a duo lounge for small

group conversations. It’s comfy, it’s soundproofed and it’s

being road-tested by the staff who will use it to make sure

it’s fit for purpose. Consultation at work!

IF I HAD A HAMMER

HAMMER TIME: Peter and architect Don can’t resist a

closer look at the National Association of Women in

Construction Award, won last month by our architects

Jacobs.

HIGH STANDARDS: David and Joanne presented at the

recent National Standards Excellence conference on the

BMDH experience of implementing the national standards

in a time of change and expansion. The conference

highlighted the importance of creating a positive workplace

culture to drive the quality and safety agenda, achieved

through strategies such as meaningful staff and community

engagement, collaborative leadership and continued

improvement of the patient experience. Congrats, team,

and glad to see you got the memo about wearing the

project colours!
