During the 1980s there was a growing acceptance around Australia that Nurse Education needed to be more science based to allow nurses to cope with the vastly increased appearance of technological devices in the hospital wards. The response was to shift such training into Higher Education institutions. The State Government decided that Nurse Training in Ballarat should move from the Hospital to Ballarat College of Advanced Education. in 1986. Margaret Stevens had been a senior Nurse Educator at the Ballarat Base Hospital for many years and was selected by mutual agreement between the two institutions to devise the new course and plan its implementation so that it would gain the approval of the Nurse Registration authority. In addition to consulting widely with other Nurse Education specialists and supporting departments in Ballarat College of Advanced Education, Margaret negotiated with over 70 medical establishments to work out arrangements by which the students would be placed in work experience as required by the course. She was also involved in the required additional staff appointments and in planning for a new building on Campus. The course was commenced in 1986 and the transition successfully achieved, thanks largely to Margaret's diligence. In 1987 the Review of Registration of Health Practitioners interim report was published by the Health Department Victoria. Margaret Stevens was appointed by the Health Minister to represent the College of Nursing, Australia. This was a landmark review with long-reaching implications. At the time of her death on 23 March 2015 she was a member of the Board of Ballarat Community Health, and was identified as follows R.N.; B.App.Sc (Nursing); Post Basic: DipEd(N); Kellogg Fellow (USA 1984-85), M.Ed.

The Mountain District Community Health Service (MDCHS) was conceived of by Cockatoo local Myrtle Quicke, a well-renowned medical professional and nurse in the early-mid 1900s, as well as a founder of the Australian College of Nursing. ...The Mountain District Community Health Service (MDCHS) was conceived of by Cockatoo local Myrtle Quicke, a well-renowned medical professional and nurse in the early-mid 1900s, as well as a founder of the Australian College of Nursing. ...The Mountain District Community Health Service (MDCHS) was conceived of by Cockatoo local Myrtle Quicke, a well-renowned medical professional and nurse in the early-mid 1900s, as well as a founder of the Australian College of Nursing. After moving to Cockatoo in 1954, she quickly realised the shortage of adequate medical care in the area and organised the establishment of the MDCHS. This involved fundraisers and meetings with both locals and council officials to drum up funding and support against opposition who believed there was no need for such a centre. For many years, money was raised for the MDCHS by an opportunity shop nearby until the centre opened on the 3rd of March, 1964. It operated on a membership service, costing £1/5 a year for a single man or woman with no dependents, and a nurse was in attendance 24-hours a day. Alongside the development of the MDCHS, the Berwick Shire council (now part of Cardinia Shire) decided to assign an Infant Welfare Nurse to Cockatoo in order to assist with an influx of new babies in the area. An Infant Welfare Centre was attached to the MDCHS, and opened at the same time. Myrtle joked that she would have the Queen open the building, but it was instead opened by the Governor of Victoria, Sir Rohan Delacombe. The day was one of great celebration for all in the town.This photograph documents the growth of local healthcare and medicine, as well as one of the many accomplishments of Myrtle Quicke.A black and white photograph of the front of a brick building. The building is enclosed by a low metal fence and two open gates, and sits on an unsealed road. Behind the building are a number of tall trees. On the reverse of the photograph is a handwritten pencil caption.In photograph, on freestanding sign: "MOUNTAIN DISTRICT COMMUNITY / HEALTH SERVICE" In photograph, on sign on brick wall: "COCKATOO / INFANT WELFARE / CENTRE" Reverse, handwritten in pencil: "'MOUNTAIN DISTRICT COMMUNITY / HEALTH SERVICE' / AND / 'COCKATOO INFANT WELFARE CENTRE 1960's'"cockatoo, 1960s, medical & health -
