Burnside Hospital provides exceptional healthcare in modern facilities at two locations:

Since 2023 our Stepney location (formerly Sportsmed Hospital) has delivered a range of specialist outpatient and diagnostic services so that our patients have convenient access to comprehensive medical care. A TRADITION OF EXCELLENCE // A FUTURE OF INNOVATION
As a not-for-profit hospital we reinvest in our facilities, technology, and people to continue to provide the best possible medical and surgical care. Our highly skilled teams work together to uphold our values of integrity, respect and excellence, making a meaningful difference in our patients lives.

In the high-stakes environment of the operating theatre, a "Can’t Intubate, Can’t Oxygenate" (CICO) crisis is the scenario every clinician prepares for but hopes to never face. Recently, our hospital took a significant step forward in patient safety by sending three selected staff members to the exclusive CICO SA workshop.

With only three spots available this year, this was a unique opportunity for high-level staff development. The intensive training focused on the "Vortex" approach, a cognitive tool designed to simplify decision-making during acute time pressure.

Beyond the technical skills of surgical airway management, the workshop emphasised the critical "human factors" of emergency medicine. Our staff mastered the art of dynamic team support, learning exactly how to assist anesthetists by reducing cognitive load and preparing equipment before it is requested.

This training ensures the attendees return not just with technical knowledge, but with the ability to foster calm, structured communication during an airway emergency

EDUCATION AT BURNSIDE ✨

On Saturday, our team took part in an interactive airway emergencies education session, featuring hands-on small-group activities with airway equipment and simulation training led by Anaesthetic CN Leon Tandor and Anaesthetist Dr David Bednarczuk.

It was fantastic to see strong attendance from nurses across both Toorak Gardens and Stepney — thank you for your enthusiasm and commitment to continuous learning.
