Third-last day of these. So here's three stories about "what went right" from my news feeds.
Cape York town of Coen finally gets its own ambulance station amid rising visitor numbers by Kirsty Nancarrow (ABC Queensland)
Coen, 200km north of Cooktown on the Cape York peninsula, is a town of about 400 people, which sees about 1500 visitors during the dry season. Prior to now, it's been reliant on a bare-bones service consisting of a shed storing emergency equipment and a paramedic field officer; the nearest ambulance service would need to make a 10 hour round trip to get to Coen. The Queensland state government has committed funding for an ambulance station and extra staff during the busy dry season.
Placenta research could help doctors treat premature babies with chronic lung conditions by Katherine Gregory (ABC Victoria)
A study from Monash University and Monash Children's hospital offers the hope of better diagnosis, monitoring and treatment for the conditions bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and pulmonary hypertension (PH) - conditions which can seriously affect babies born prematurely.
Shooters offer assistance to deal with growing feral deer problem around Canberra by Nick Haggarty (ABC Australian Capital Territory)
Feral deer are starting to become a problem for farmers and pastoralists around the Australian Capital Territory. However, the Sporting Shooters Association of Australia have offered to extend their Farmer Assist program to farmers in the region. The Farmer Assist program consists of farmers inviting qualified shooters onto their properties to deal with feral animals.
So there's my three for the day. If you've found a story about what went right, why not share it in the comments and boost the signal?
