Western Sydney is home to Australia's tallest health building – the Central Acute Services Building at Westmead Hospital – and we're celebrating its official opening in this week's Western Sydney Health Check podcast.NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian and Health Minister Brad Hazzard visited on Monday 22 March to open Westmead Hospital's new 14-storey medical tower–a $1 billion investment in western Sydney.WSLHD chief executive Graeme Loy discusses what this landmark project means for our fast-growing community and the future of health research and innovation. One of the many jewels in the CASB is the dedicated trauma ward that has now been running for three weeks.Westmead Hospital's head of trauma Dr Jeremy Hsu explains what this advancement means for trauma care in western Sydney, and nurse unit manager of the ward Britney Raj shares what it's like caring for patients with multiple life-threatening injuries.“These are life-changing events; it's such a significant part of their story and we're a part of that,” Britney said.“Just taking that 10 minutes out to sit and listen to someone creates such a difference in their care and how they recover. It is a challenge for everyone […] sometimes people don't speak very nicely to them, sometimes they're a shoulder to cry on, and the nurses just have to adapt to whatever may come through the doors.”Listen to the latest episode here and new episodes are released every Thursday.

How are you going to deliver Acute level services in the home?The advancements in devices, models and creative partnerships are leading the way.  Two articles today.FTA 1AliveCor has updated the capabilities of its mobile ECG devices to identify three additional types of heart conditions, the company announced today.Sinus rhythm with supraventricular ectopy (SVE), sinus rhythm with premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) and sinus rhythm with wide QRS are now all on the table of AliveCor's KardiaMobile line of ECG devices, which already detected atrial fibrillation, bradycardia (slow heart rate) and tachycardia (high heart rate).FTA 2"The agreement between Humana and Dispatch Health will provide members living with multiple chronic conditions – such as cellulitis, kidney and urinary tract infections, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, heart failure and many others – an opportunity to be treated safely at home and thereby avoid hospital visits. Last November, the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services announced a waiver program to allow qualified health care providers to offer acute, hospital-level care in the home. The Dispatch-Humana agreement is believed to be the country's first program to provide hospital-level care involving a national payer.”---What is your strategy to deliver Acute level services in the home?

New services for better emergency and acute care of children at Christchurch Hospital will not open because there's no money to staff them. The Canterbury DHB is struggling with a $180 million deficit. It also can't afford to keep its Emergency Department observation unit going when the new Hagley building opens soon, which will have a particular impact on the elderly and mental health patients. Phil Pennington is looking into this.

SUBURBIA IS A WASTELAND OF DRUG USAGE... Some experts are skeptical about the wall's ability to fight the problem, given its roots in painkillers prescribed by doctors in the United States. OPIOID ANALYST/PHYSICIAN: Dr. Dennis Deruelle (Durr-Rell), is a physician and National Medical Director of Acute Services for IPC Healthcare; he is Author Of Your Healthcare Playbook: Winning the Game of Modern Medicine. "President Donald Trump declared the opioid epidemic a national public health emergency on Thursday, telling an audience in the East Room of the White House that "we can be the generation that ends the opioid epidemic." "This epidemic is a national health emergency," he said. "Nobody has seen anything like what is going on now." He added: "As Americans, we cannot allow this to continue. It is time to liberate our communities from this scourge of drug addiction. Never been this way. We can be the generation that ends the opioid epidemic. We can do it." Trump, in a wide-ranging speech about opioids, stressed the need for further enforcement and linked his planned wall along the US-Mexico border with efforts to stem the tide of illegal drugs coming into the United States. "An astonishing 90% of the heroin in America comes from south of the border -- where we will be building a wall -- which will greatly help in this problem," he said. Some experts are skeptical about the wall's ability to fight the problem, given its roots in painkillers prescribed by doctors in the United States. Trump also stressed the need to crack down on those Americans who are buying illegal drugs, stressing the need to link enforcement with stopping abuse in the first place. "Every person who buys illicit drugs here in America should know that they are risking their futures, their families and even their lives," he said. "Illegal drug use is not a victimless crime. There is nothing admirable, positive or socially desirable about it." READ: www.cnn.com/2017/10/26/politics/donald-trump-opioid-epidemic/index.html
