Thanks for a great #GiantSteps22@SaferCareVic - my key takeaways from the second day are themes of empowerment, inclusion, diversity, courage & being away of cognitive bias.
And, my fave 5 quotes from today... 1) "Be bold - if you put yourself out there, good things will happen" - @DylanAlcott 2) "Far better to target the causes for poor sleep in hospitals", rather than targeting the symptoms with medicine - Dr Sasha Bennett #GiantSteps22
3) "There are people who want to listen to what I have experienced" - Zahra Sufeeya, on being involved in @VicHealth's Future Healthy program 4) "Health promotion is not about doing things 'to' people, but 'with' people" - @SandroDemaio#GiantSteps22
Final keynote for #GiantSteps22 is @DylanAlcott, athlete, philanthropist, entrepreneur & 2022 Australian of the Year!
Recounts journey from birth, in and out of hospital until 3 years age, similar to @ClareBowditch yesterday says one of the reasons here today is family - @DylanAlcott#GiantSteps22
"Young people with disability often wrapped in cotton wool" - Alcott says. Recounts that childhood was mostly fine, was accepted - @DylanAlcott#GiantSteps22
Tane Hunter & Rebecca Maklad of @future_crunch, a group of scientists, artists, technologists & entrepreneurs, are here to discuss 'The Adaptability Quotient' #GiantSteps22
@future_crunch byline = "If we want to change the story of the human race in the 21st century, we have to change the stories we tell ourselves" #GiantSteps22futurecrun.ch
They are a think tank to seek out and tell stories about human progress, help organisations understand what's coming next - @future_crunch#GiantSteps22
We are back after lunch - hope you all had a nice break and stretch #GiantSteps22
I'm joining into breakout session 4. The first presenter in this session is Dr Sasha Bennett talking about optimising sleep in hospitals - 'Your sleep, your say - Implementing shared decision making to treat insomnia' - #GiantSteps22
Typical scenarios for someone in hospital are either planned or unplanned. Regardless of why they are there, they have come into an environment that is not very conducive to sleep - Bennett #GiantSteps22
I'm joining breakout session 3 with Susan McKee CEO @VicDental up first with her presentation titled: 'You know the drill - Putting patient experience and value first in dental care' #GiantSteps
For those that don't know, oral health is not part of Medicare, for a very long and painful reason. They are working with govt to include oral health as part of universal healthcare - McKee #GiantSteps22

Firstly acknowledges, We've got a lot of work to do to improve the gap in health for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people - McKee #GiantSteps22
Panel discussion up now: 'reframing Aboriginal health as the key to our future of health' with panel facilitated by Nicole McCartney, Chief Aboriginal Health Advisor at DOH Victoria. #GiantSteps22
Panelists incl Brad Brown, Director Victorian Aboriginal Health Service, Sheree Lowe Executive Director of Social & Wellbeing Centre of Excellence @VACCHO_org & Pat Turner AM CEO @NACCHOAustralia - #GiantSteps22
Question - why is it important to reframe health?
Brown - local people talk about their own issues & needs, as needs & #SDOH are different across communities. Co-producing is important - community is part of the process, which is part of self-determination also #GiantSteps22
