Do you want to do a fully funded PhD to improve one of the fastest growing sectors in health? 👇 Join us @RBRCUniSA for a project to develop better support mechanisms for caregivers of people having intravenous antibiotics at home. Further details here unisa.edu.au/research/degree…
Thank-you @Ch7Adelaide for allowing us to share the experience of these children and how to improve care. Hats off to the amazing FAAIRI service at Women's and Children's Hospital @amanda_ullman @TriciaVAMS @RBRCUniSA @UniversitySA 👏📷Catherine Miller and team
Vaccinations, blood tests, or IVs – it’s fair to say that no child likes a needle. Now, world-first research from the @UniversitySA is helping make the process easier and much less scary. youtu.be/GwTNIPYTL4U via @YouTube

Attending the 1st Australasian Nursing & Midwifery Clinical Trials Summit. We make up 60% of the registered health workforce. Our potential to lead research that improves patient care and outcomes is greatly underestimated. @CNMHSR_ECU @acn_tweet @marioneckert5 @anmctn

We are incredibly proud of AVAS members @a_ullman and @Claire_AVATAR on this outstanding achievement. This research will contribute to reducing CVC complications in children with cancer. Well done Amanda and Claire!
I am honoured & excited by the investment from @nhmrc as an IG to reduce CVC complications for kids w cancer & build capacity for the future. I am also excited that we get to DO the research, rather than PROPOSE the research, for the next 5 years. @UQHealth @childhealthqld
