As an indication of the cost of occasions of service, I can provide a figure for the cost per episode of care for the Canberra Hospital Walk in Centre for the financial year 2013-14 which was $96.

Belconnen Walk in Centre Staffing is as follows:

Clinical Nurse Consultant 1.0 FTE (head count 1)

Nurse Practitioners 1.0 FTE (head count 1)

Advanced Practice Nurses 8.67 FTE (head count 10)

Reception Staff 4 FTE

Assistant Director of Nursing 0.25 FTE

Tuggeranong Walk in Centre Staffing is as follows:

Clinical Nurse Consultant 1.0 FTE (head count 1)

Nurse Practitioners 2.0 FTE (head count 2)

Advanced Practice Nurses 7.22 FTE (head count 9)

Reception Staff 3.5FTE

Assistant Director of Nursing 0.25 FTE

There is no ongoing recurrent budget for WiC advertising and marketing. At the time of the recent relocation of the TCH WiC to Tuggeranong and the opening of a second new WiC in Belconnen (June 2013/July 2014) an endorsed and targeted three phase campaign was approved and rolled out in order to inform consumers of the new services available to enhance access to primary care services on offer in the ACT. The actual dollar amount spent for this campaign was $53,000 and included TV and radio advertisements, print media advertisements, poster printing and distribution, and ACTION bus adverting.
