Nungurner Primary School

Nungurner Primary School is a small school in East Gippsland with 33 students. Although our school was not physically impacted by the 2019/2020 bushfire season our local community has been deeply impacted and financial losses to our community have been significant. Our students experienced multiple evacuations from their homes over the summer and this has impacted on our students' and families' wellbeing. The flow on effect to local businesses and the impact of COVID-19 has meant that our school has been unable to reach out to local community members and businesses to raise much needed fundraising for small projects within our school. We are seeking external support through GIVIT to assist us to undertake some small projects within our school, including the rejuvenation of our vegetable gardens and playground.

Nurse Navigator Services - Mackay Base Hospital

Nurse Navigation Services - Mackay Base Hospital
Nurse Navigator Service:
Nurse NavigatorsIn 2016 the Nurse Navigator program was introduced in Queensland. Led by the Office of the Chief Nursing and Midwifery Officer, Clinical Excellence Division, the Nurse Navigator Service provides dedicated roles to facilitate the journey of patients with complex healthcare needs through an increasingly complex health-care system.

With the GP as the primary care provider and case manager, the nurse-led model of care provided by Nurse Navigator Service assists patients to navigate the complex healthcare system, from the community or primary health care setting, through hospital, and back home again. By working across multiple specialties, the Nurse Navigator Service aims to reduce service fragmentation and improve access for patients through care coordination, advocacy and education.

As highly experienced clinicians with an in-depth knowledge of the health system, Nurse Navigators support patients to improve their health literacy and capacity to self-manage their conditions. Nurse Navigators assist patients to access services in the right place, at the right time and by the right health-care professional or care provider.

Nurse Navigators link with all primary and acute care health professionals who identify and refer their most complex patients (adult or children), who require a coordinated approach to improve their health outcomes. Based upon similar criteria, other referrals to the service will come from specialists, hospitals and hospital data bases.
