About
Individuals leading change within a single service or department often find that solutions lie outside their own scope. Creating a functional system requires balance and coordination across multiple teams, professions, and sectors, but how do we do that when the entire system is running over capacity?
This is an opportunity to hear from Kylie Stark coordinator for the Southern Child Health Network NSW and Clare Skinner president of ACEM and Senior Staff Specialist in EM (and former Director) at Hornsby Ku-ring-gai Hospital on leadership, advocacy, workplace culture, quality and safety, clinical redesign and health system reform.
Redesign efforts in response to the pandemic have demonstrated that clinicians from diverse specialties and professions can work together with managers, patients, and carers to rapidly implement collaborative and safety-focused solutions. Building relationships across professions, services, specialties, tribes especially between nursing and medical leaders and those in more executive roles is essential to lead change in a complex system.
Dr Clare Skinner works as a clinician, manager, and educator. She is a frequent contributor to academic journals, mainstream media and medical blogs on topics related to hospital practice and culture. Clare is a regular speaker at emergency medicine and leadership conferences. She was selected in the Top 50 Public Sector Women NSW in 2018.
Kylie Stark is the past NSW President of CENA (College of Emergency Nursing Australasia) and has a keen interest in quality and safety, education and training and leadership in complex adaptive environments particularly health.
