Communicating with older people across transition points of care. This project aims to examine how health professionals, older people and their family members communicate in managing medications as older people move through transition points of care. Communication problems often occur as older people move between and within settings, often leading to harmful medication incidents. The project expects to facilitate medication safety as older people move across different settings and to facilitate ....Communicating with older people across transition points of care. This project aims to examine how health professionals, older people and their family members communicate in managing medications as older people move through transition points of care. Communication problems often occur as older people move between and within settings, often leading to harmful medication incidents. The project expects to facilitate medication safety as older people move across different settings and to facilitate cultural shifts in health care communication and opportunities for consumer involvement.Read moreRead less

Facilities will provide infrastructure at Monash University and University of Sydney to continue the collaboration enhancing excellence in an exciting application of fluidics research, supporting the highest level of graduate training, providing innovative tools for industry and promoting industrial collaborations. The infrastructure is unique and will create international funding and collaborative opportunities to support research and postgraduate training. The equipment will add value to existing infrastructure to enhance understanding of particulate flow with the paradoxical outcomes of improving drug deposition in respiratory delivery and of minimising anthropogenic particular deposition for better therapeutic and health outcomes.Read moreRead less

Summary
Particulate Characterisation for Pharmaceutical and Engineering Applications. The aim of this proposal is to establish joint facilities between the University of Sydney, Monash University and UNSW for the characterization of surface properties and particle sizes of pharmaceutical aerosols and industrial powders. Such knowledge is important for controlling aerosol production and delivery of drug particles to the lungs. This will have a significant benefit to the pharmaceutical industry and patien ....Particulate Characterisation for Pharmaceutical and Engineering Applications. The aim of this proposal is to establish joint facilities between the University of Sydney, Monash University and UNSW for the characterization of surface properties and particle sizes of pharmaceutical aerosols and industrial powders. Such knowledge is important for controlling aerosol production and delivery of drug particles to the lungs. This will have a significant benefit to the pharmaceutical industry and patients requiring aerosol treatment. Further, the proposed facilities will enhance research in complex particulate processes and modelling, functional nanomaterials, and soft sensor development, thus keeping Australia at the forefront of powder research into various high value adding particulate areas.Read moreRead less
