Hi, I'm Rob Lirenfeld. I'm the project lead for Maximising Scope of the Nurse Practitioner: Community Mental Health. The aims of the project, Maximising Scope of the Nurse Practitioner was to meet complex clinical, unmet needs of the consumer cohort of the mental health service. This involved consumers who were deteriorating clinically. And value adding to the established clinical teams of the Sunshine Coast Mental Health Service. These involved two case management teams, a homeless outreach team, our acute care team, which is our intake and assessment team, and also embedding in the cultural healing programme of the mental health service. Our aim was to identify nurse-led clinics, provide a timely responsive service to patients and their families the service. This involved high-level complex nursing-led autonomous decision making, which included working within an after-hours space. Quite often involved some prescribing capabilities, and also arranging follow-up with primary healthcare providers. Our innovation funding amount was $220,000. This amount was used really for wages for the nurse practitioner mental health. It also additionally enabled some communication capabilities, such as a laptop, a mobile phone and enabled us some offline time to write the report for the funding model as well. So the project kicked off in about 2019. One of the pivot points for us was the impact of COVID-19. And the project was redeployed to one of our regional sites in Gympie because of emergent leave from COVID-19. This was probably the only pivot point for the project. It involved the nurse practitioner mental health, establishing nurse-led clinics within the Gympie mental health team. The project's opportunities were really value adding to our established clinical teams. It enabled the teams to increase their responsiveness to both patients and families of people with a mental illness, and presentations were really designed to hospital-avoid our consumers having to go to hospital for these rapid, autonomous clinical decisions. When we reflected on the data, we actually were able to avoid ED presentations in 18 incursions just by nurse practitioner interventions at this time. The learnings from implementation of the project have demonstrated the capabilities of the nurse practitioner within the community mental health teams, the advanced autonomous clinical interventions that the nurse practitioner leads, and value adds to the various clinical teams at the Sunshine Coast Mental Health Service. The clinically significant outcomes of this project were 18 hospital avoidance episodes, 81 clinically deteriorating patients who were rapidly assessed and treated, primarily in an after hours space, and also that the value add to the clinical teams were 185 secondary consultations were provided to the various teams. The nurse practitioner has been uptaken by all the clinical teams and is seen as a valuable resource at this stage, and it continues on. I hope you found this presentation for the Nursing and Midwifery Showcase series informative. Please take some time to check out other projects, which highlight nursing and midwifery excellent in Queensland Health.
