The National Triage Scale was developed as a clinical tool for this purpose for use in Australia and New Zealand (Australasian College for Emergency Medicine, 1994).

Abstract:
The library service is the backbone of the library. Without services, the collection of library materials cannot be optimally utilized. One of the services provided by the Library and Archives Department of Dumai City is storytelling services. Storytelling service is a service conducted to convey a story through words, pictures, photos, or sound. Challenges arising from the impact of the pandemic have resulted in the library services being less optimal. Nevertheless, the Library and Archives Department of Dumai City strategically conducts activities as a form of prime service to library users

Abstract:
Objective Time spent in the emergency department (ED) before admission to hospital is often considered an important key performance indicator (KPI). Throughout Australia and New Zealand, there is no standard definition of ‘time of admission’ for patients admitted through the ED. By using data submitted to the Australian and New Zealand Intensive Care Society Adult Patient Database, the aim was to determine the differing methods used to define hospital admission time and assess how these impact on the calculation of time spent in the ED before admission to an intensive care unit (ICU).

Abstract:
I have been watching the sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) epidemic in New Zealand over 25 years. I've seen it both coming and going. As a medical officer with the government Department of Health, I had access to official statistics from 1960. New Zealand has a small, circumscribed, stable population, a good universal public health system, a good standard of infant health, and almost full employment. However, in 1970, because New Zealand had a high postneonatal infant mortality rate in comparison with other countries such as the United States, I decided to home visit each family in Auckland

Introduction: Prior to 2011, libraries within Alberta Health Services (AHS) operated using a variety of self-determining service models across 19 locations. Evaluation of library services demonstrated significant gaps in service delivery and access to resources, cost inefficiencies and variation in library service standards across the province. National and international trends reflected ongoing library closures and challenges to demonstrate library contributions to organizational goals and improvements in health information literacy.&#x0D; Description: In January 2011, all AHS library service

Introduction Diabetic foot disease is a common condition globally and is over-represented in indigenous populations. The propensity for patients with diabetic foot disease to undergo minor or major limb amputation is a concern. Diabetic foot disease and lower limb amputation are debilitating for patients and have a substantial financial impact on health services. The purpose of this multicentre study is to prospectively report the presentation, management and outcomes of diabetic foot disease, to validate existing scoring systems and assess long term outcomes for these patients particularly in

In order to find out how many and what kind of Hospital Patient Libraries exist in Australia I placed a "Request for Information" on our national electronic discussion list entitled 'aliaHealth'. This discussion list has presently nearly 300 subscribers. Most of them are located in Australia, but they also come from Canada, Germany, Hong Kong, the United Kingdom and New Zealand. The e-mail address for 'aliaHealth' is: aliaHealth@alianet.alia.org.au. The result of my enquiry was rather poor: there are three Hospital Patient Libraries in Western Australia, one in Queensland and two in Victoria.
