A $1.6 million mobile training facility has visited the Narrabri District Hospital, enabling staff to practise their response in medical emergencies
The semi-trailer is equipped with four computerised patient mannequins which deliver a level of training that is normally only available in major city centres.
The life-like patients can be programmed to cough, sweat, vomit and speak, while five to seven local emergency staff practice their response.
Narrabri hospital’s clinical nurse educator, Jocelyn Palmer, said the mobile centre’s visit was a fantastic training opportunity for staff at the hospital.
“It’s an education centre on wheels which replicates an emergency room and a hospital ward,” she explained.
“Training is delivered focusing on teamwork, communication and emergency skills in an environment where mistakes can be made and skills honed to deliver the best care possible in the real world.”
Local staffed practised responses to cardiac arrest, stroke, accidents, traumas, maternity and paediatric emergencies, as well as retrievals.
The mobile centre is an initiative of the NSW government and is named after Sister Alison Bush AO, one of the state’s most influential and long-serving midwives.
The 19 metre long vehicle is covered in distinctive aboriginal artwork in honour of Sister Bush’s indigenous heritage.
Mrs Palmer said the truck was especially significant to the region.
“We have staff who actually worked with Sister Alison Bush, and they’ve called in to tell stories of their personal experience of knowing the renowned mid-wife,” she said.
This year the Sister Alison Bush AO Simulation Centre will travel approximately 15,000 kilometres and visit 16 rural sites.
