Discussing issues of rehabilitation and models of care

About Rehabconnect

This email list facilitates the networking of rehabilitation clinicians (allied health, nursing and medical) and enables the sharing of clinical practice information.
List members include: Senior Nurse Managers, Nurse Unit Managers, Clinical Nurse Educators, Nurse Educators, Data & Research Nurses, Equipment Officers, Stream Managers, Registered Nurses, Allied Health professionals, Rehabilitation Physicians, Staff Specialists and academics.
Membership extends across NSW, so that metropolitan and rural members have an interest in Rehabilitation services.

REHABconnect hopes to be able to provide something for everyone – but there are limits. Some rules and regulations must be followed to keep the aims of the LIST in perspective.

Please abide by the following rules:

1.The prime purpose of the LIST is to discuss issues of rehabilitation services and care.
2.Always put something OBVIOUS and CONCISE into the SUBJECT area.
3.NEVER post or forward messages containing jokes or any other unrelated material.
4.Keep messages short and to the point. Compose your message, spell check it, and reread it before posting. Before you post something make certain it is relevant first.
5.Try to keep all messages (queries and responses) in the public domain. ‘Thankyous’ and ‘Congratulations’ need only be mailed to the interested parties.
6.Don’t post “MAJOR NEWS EVENTS” (e.g. Saddam Hussein Captured…) to the LIST, by the time most people receive such items they will have already been informed by conventional media.
7.Don’t include the entire text of the message you are responding to in your answer.
8.Avoid offending others by excluding offensive language and racist/sexist remarks.
9.If you have a disagreement with another LIST member – do not hash it out over the net.
10.If using drug names – use generic names only.
11.Avoid submissions in a single case (all upper or all lower). They are difficult to read.
12.Use a “signature file” at the end of your message with your name, designation, address, hospital affiliation, telephone and fax details.
13.NEVER POST job vacancies on the list.
14.Follow your AHS’ and NSWHealth internet/email etiquette policies.
