Camden Rotary Club has just completed the planting of 100 trees at Camden Airport in recognition of the Centenary of Rotary in Australia. Community volunteers improving our environment.
At our meeting this week our guest speaker was Dr Alex Buttfield, the Deputy Director and Co-Director of Emergency Medicine Training, responsible for training new emergency specialists at Campbelltown Hospital.
Dr Buttfield spoke passionately about his aim to upskill Emergency Department nurses in paediatric life support. The Advanced Paediatric Life Support course is widely recognised as the international gold standard in paediatric emergency training courses. The course has been developed for doctors, nurses and paramedics looking to increase their confidence and clinical skills in the emergency management of ill and injured children.
The initiative is already supported by the Kids of Macarthur Foundation.

Camden Rotary Club's Annual Pride of Workmanship Awards was held on Monday 15th May where nine individuals were recognised.
The Pride of Workmanship Award is designed to acknowledge an employee, irrespective of age or vocation, who, in the eyes of his or her employer, displays outstanding qualities in terms of approach, attitude, dedication and commitment, to his or her job.
The Award is intended to cover all aspects of work performance and ethics, inclusive of quality and quantity of output, safety, initiative, sense of responsibility, etc.
Pride of Workmanship is not a competition and there are no winners. It is a recognition of individual achievement and commitment.
U-Turn the Wheel is a program which educates young drivers on the challenges they face every day on our roads, including car care and safety, other road users, partying safely, the effects of brain injury, road rules, and the effects of drugs and alcohol. Camden Rotary Club is proud to be able to run this program in a number of our local schools.
We would like to thank our presenters:
Headway Brain Injury Support Services, Camden Automotive Repairs, Cawdor Haulage, Youth Solutions & NSW Police Force
