New art start THE Mentone-Mordialloc Art Group will host its first art exhibition in its new digs at the Mentone Activity Hub this month.

The ‘Artists in Classes’ exhibition will feature art work by group members who attended classes or short courses this year.

The art group moved into its new studio location in April after leaving its dilapidated Old Granary Lane building in Mentone.

Traditional and modern works will be available for sale at the exhibition open daily Thursday 15-Saturday 24 September, 10am-4pm and until 6pm Fridays.

Opening night at Mentone Activity Hub, 29 Venice St, Mentone is Wednesday 14 September, 8pm.

Ups and downs on line Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au THE Frankston line will have a mix of above and below ground level rail as part of the state government’s plan to separate road from rail at level crossings and homes may be compulsory acquired to remove the crossing at Charman Rd in Cheltenham.

Labor Public Transport Minister Jacinta Allan visited Edithvale train

station on Tuesday morning (6 September) to unveil options for the removal of level crossings at eight sites along the rail line.

The state government is now asking for community feedback on the flagged designs for each crossing before deciding on the final designs early next year.

The Level Crossing Removal Authority, a Department of Transport body, will host several community

consultation sessions, where residents can see detailed design plans, in September and October.

Ms Allan acknowledged design options were originally slated to be unveiled mid-year but she said the government and the LXRA decided to take more time to “get it right”.

“Each site needs to be looked at individually and each project needs to be assessed on the particular environmental issues ... and road considera-

tions,” Ms Allan told The News.

“We’re going to take the advice of the expert engineers and have a planning process as well to ensure we get the right outcome at each location.”

A ‘rail trench’ and ‘rail bridge’ are options for level crossings at Seaford, Bonbeach, Edithvale, Mentone and Cheltenham.

A rail bridge may be built at a new crossing at Macleod Rd in Carrum and the Station St crossing could be

shut and a new rail bridge built at Eel Race Rd. A new ‘road connection’ at Station St over the Patterson River is also being looked at as an option.

The state government says a trench cannot be dug at Carrum due to nearby Patterson River.

The government says there is no option at Skye Rd in Frankston – rail over road must be built due to an overland flood plain.

Unions call out response times Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au Caring for animals: Kingston Council ranger Monika Pocervina with two lost dogs returned to their owner in 2013.

There was no cruelty involved in that case.

Picture: Yanni

Animal cruelty ‘hotspots’ named KINGSTON ranked 21st of Victoria’s 79 local council areas for animal cruelty, according to a list of hotspots released last week by RSPCA Victoria.

Of the 11,840 cruelty reports received by the RSPCA across the state in 2015-16, 192 concerned animal welfare in Kingston.

RSPCA Victoria CEO Dr Liz Walker said that geographic analysis of cruelty reporting data would support the RSPCA’s efforts to target its prevention activity to the areas that need it most. “[Our] vision is to end cruelty to all animals – and we know that prevention is the key to ending cruelty,” Dr Walker said.

“Over the next 12 months we will be using this data to help us identify the areas that would benefit most from community education and support.”

Welfare concerns for dogs, cats and horses continued to make up the majority of issues reported to the RSPCA in 2015-16.

Of the 192 reports received about Kingston, 102 related to dogs and three to puppies; 36 related to cats and two to kittens, and 27 related to horses.

Issues reported in Kingston included 51 about poor hygiene, grooming and housing conditions; 43 were for underweight animals; 38 for sick and injured animals not receiving vet

treatment; 22 reported animals with insufficient food, 30 for insufficient water and 24 for insufficient shelter; 38 for abandoned animals and 25 for animals being beaten or wounded.

“Even one cruelty issue is one too many, yet the number of reports we receive is steadily increasing every year,” Dr Walker said. “We know that the community is becoming more concerned about animal welfare – which may be part of the reason for the continued rise in report numbers.

“What is particularly disturbing is the fact that many of the issues reported to us involve very basic animal welfare matters, such the way animals are being housed and fed.

“RSPCA Victoria wants to partner with communities to find practical ways to boost animal welfare by improving local knowledge and support for animal owners, and will continue to enforce the law and rehabilitate those animals who have suffered harm.”

Fifteen council areas received more than 300 animal cruelty reports last financial year, making up almost half of the total reports. Casey Council received 566 complaints, Geelong 554, Melbourne 479, Yarra Ranges 460, Bendigo 369, Mornington Peninsula, 366, Hume 362, and Frankston 359.

FIRE fighting response times by several CFA brigades in the south east suburbs of Melbourne are not up to scratch, the Inquiry into Bushfire Preparedness at state parliament was told last week.

This damning claim has come from the United Firefighters’ Union which is at loggerheads with the CFA and volunteer firefighters over a contentious EBA. Response timelines were provided during last week’s inquiry into the state’s preparedness for the summer bushfire threat.

The UFU said the required CFA response time for getting a truck to an emergency was eight minutes, with brigades from Mt Martha failing to meet this benchmark 69 per cent of the time, Skye 62 per cent, Rye 60 per cent, Dromana 53 per cent, Keysborough 43 per cent, Mt Eliza 35 per cent and Edithvale 27 per cent.

The union said brigades in increasingly urbanised areas in Melbourne’s east were failing to meet the CFA standard up to 80 per cent of the time, while the Mt Martha brigade was the peninsula’s worst performer at 69 per cent.

The union said the data, which covered the period 1 January 2015-1 January 2016, had come from the CFA. A spokeswoman for the CFA would not comment on the figures, saying she was checking their veracity.

The News was referred to the March

2015 Victorian Auditor-General’s Report into emergency services response times, which claimed the CFA responded to emergencies at, or close to, target response times.

However, this does not point to the performance of the specific brigades singled out by the UFU. Firefighters’ secretary Peter Marshall said the UFU was “not trying to denigrate the role of volunteer firefighters” by releasing the data.

“We do, however, believe that the reality of the situation facing many regional communities and much of outer metropolitan Melbourne needs to be revealed to the public,” he said.

“The simple fact is that when there is an incident in a medium urban area many brigades are consistently failing to meet the eight minute service delivery standard which is designed to ensure the protection of life and property.”

Mr Marshall said it was “not good enough to turn a blind eye when lives are at risk”.

“Service delivery standards are the pre-defined response times allowed for a brigade to respond to an emergency incident and have the best chance of preventing loss of life and protecting property. In 2009 the CFA asked for 684 additional career firefighters. Volunteer brigades around the state need the backup of full-time, paid firefighters.

“The CFA’s own data shows the organisation’s alarming failures to meet response times. This is not the fault of volunteers. The previous Liberal government cut $66 million out of the CFA.”

Tough new laws for carjacking, home invasions Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au CARJACKINGS and home invasions were the subject of tough new legislation introduced into state parliament last week.

The legislation amends the Crimes Act 1958 to create the new offences of carjacking, aggravated carjacking, home invasion and aggravated home invasion.

They will attract harsher penalties and give police “the laws they need to keep the community safe”.

The legislation, developed in consultation with Victoria Police, will include statutory minimum sentences for aggravated carjacking and aggra-

vated home invasion.

And, to combat the rise of youth gangs, the legislation’s show-cause provisions will apply regardless of the age of the offender.

Superintendent Amy Gledden, of the Victoria Police, Southern Metro Region – which covers Caulfield in the north to Carrum in the south. – said her division “continues to work with our partners and community to prevent and disrupt crime.

“Any legislative tools that support this would be of great assistance.”

Carjackings and home invasions have become more common in the southern suburbs over the past two years. They are often linked to the rise of youth gangs out “missioning” – or breaking into houses at night to

steal car keys – or bumping into cars and then, when the owners hop out to exchange names and addresses, bashing them and stealing their cars.

Victims in both scenarios are left traumatised.

The Bail Act 1977 will also be amended to include a presumption against bail for aggravated carjacking, home invasion and aggravated home invasion. This means the accused will need to justify why they should not be remanded.

The new offence of carjacking will carry a maximum penalty of 15 years and aggravated carjacking 25 years.

A statutory minimum non-parole period of three years will also apply to aggravated carjacking.

Home invasion will carry a maxi-

mum penalty of 25 years and aggravated home invasion a statutory minimum non-parole period of three years.

Home invasion is when a person, in the company of others, commits a burglary while armed or where there is a person in the house.

To recognise the traumatic effect on victims, the Bill specifically introduces an element of “strict liability” which means it is irrelevant whether the offender knew if there was someone home at the time.

Aggravated home invasion applies where at least three armed offenders commit a burglary where a person is present and the offender knew, or was reckless, as to whether there were people in the home.

Carjacking applies when an offender or offenders steal a vehicle using force, or threaten to use force.

Aggravated carjacking occurs when the person committing the offence has an offensive weapon, or causes injury to another person while committing the offence.

Police Minister Lisa Neville said although carjackings and home invasions were happening in small numbers across Victoria “they are appalling crimes which take a huge toll on their victims and impact communities”.

“The community expects that police will have the powers and resources they need to target these criminals – and that’s exactly what we’re giving them.”

Only way is up ...and down: Labor MPs Tim Richardson, left, Transport Minister Jacinta Allan, Paul Edbrooke and Sonya Kilkenny at the Edithvale announcement of options to remove level crossings along the Frankston line. Picture: Gary Sissons

Crossing removal options on the line Continued from Page 1 Voters’ feelings about how level crossing removals along the Frankston line are handled could prove crucial to the re-election chances of Labor state MPs in marginal ‘sandbelt’ seats including Tim Richardson (Mordialloc), Sonya Kilkenny (Carrum) and Paul Edbrooke (Frankston) in 2018.

The trio joined Ms Allan at the design options announcement in Edithvale and said they hope to hear from as many people as possible so the design is “the right one” for each community.

Liberal state opposition spokesman for planning David Davis dubbed the

Frankston line plan as ‘roller coaster rail’ and said a series of rail bridges and trenches “is more about politics than engineering”.

“The Big Dipper belongs at Luna Park, not on the Frankston line,” he said in a statement.

“This is a panicked knee-jerk reaction from [Premier] Daniel Andrews and confirms he’s playing politics on level crossing removals.

“It also sends a message to those homeowners on the Pakenham line that the marginal seats along the Frankston line are being treated differently.”

Mr Davis called extended elevated rail on the Pakenham line a “monstrosity”.

Construction on the level crossing removals along the Frankston line will begin in early 2018. See your.levelcrossings.vic.gov.au for further details and ways to provide feedback to the LXRA. Ms Allan said work would not be completed at all eight level crossings by the time of the next state election but she believed voters will appreciate the complexities and vast scale of the projects and will see progress being made.

Screen teams sound out Parkdale pupils PUPILS at Parkdale Primary School had their hearing tested free of charge last month thanks to a Rotary Club of Chelsea and Kingston Council backed program.

Eight second-year audiology students from University of Melbourne’s Melbourne School of Health Sciences worked in teams of two to test the hearing of 66 children.

Screenings take about 30 minutes each.

Rotary helpers kept waiting children entertained with paper, crayons and pencils to draw.

At the end of the day, 43 children were found to have no hearing issues, 13 had a slight hearing loss measured on the day and were referred for further testing and 10 needed to be retested to ensure there was no permanent loss of hearing.

Newborns are screened for hearing difficulties in maternity hospitals and audiologists out in the field focus on middle ear health and any associated hearing complaints.

Danger at sea for older boaters OLDER boaters are much more likely to find themselves in trouble when out on the water than youngsters, according to Maritime Safety Victoria’s latest incident statistics.

Figures for 2015-16 show the most likely cause of them being in the water is capsizing their boat.

In just two days in early August, five people in two different incidents found themselves immersed in cold water after they capsized and none of them was able to call for help immediately.

Of the five, four were aged 60 or over and their two boats had capsized, which continued the trend identified in the MSV statistics.

Three of the five were off Merricks in Western Port and the other two were in Port Phillip. All managed to either swim to safety or were helped

by other boat owners.

Maritime Safety director Peter Corcoran said boaters should have some way of raising the alarm when they go out.

“The five people rescued were all wearing lifejackets, which is the first step to surviving when you fall into the water,” he said. “Step two is having a means of raising the alarm that will work when and where you need it. Don’t rely on your mobile phone or being seen.

“Wearing a comfortable, well-fitted lifejacket that has been serviced will give you time to raise the alarm or wait for help and could be the difference between life and death.

“Last year there were nine fatalities – a number I want to see going down and not up.”

Court over attack

A MORDIALLOC man has been charged with assault, offensive behaviour and public nuisance after allegedly throwing a bag of urine and faeces at a school girl, Tuesday 19 July.

The man, in his late 50s, has been bailed to appear at Moorabbin Magistrates’ Court, 9 November.

Police allege the incident occurred when the girl, 14, was waiting for a bus in Charman Rd, Cheltenham, 4.20pm. She told them at the time that a person “of transgender appearance” threw the waste at her without warning.

The girl said her attacker looked “shocked” immediately afterwards before running north towards the station. Nothing was said between them.

Preschool burgled BUSINESSES and a pre-school at Chelsea, Mentone, Braeside and Cheltenham, were targeted by burglars over the past week.

Staff at the O’Brien’s Real Estate office in Nepean Hwy, Chelsea, arrived to find external doors opened and draws rummaged through, 8.45am, Friday 2 September. Police said the offenders jemmied open a glass door off Maury Rd to enter the building before going through filing cabinets to steal five Apple mobile phones, perfume, keys to five company cars, two HP laptop computers and an Epsom projector.

The total value of the haul was more than $7500. An alarm was activated at 4.59am when the offenders jemmied open a downstairs area and

they fled without stealing anything in that area.

Uber driver assaulted

AN Uber driver was assaulted by a teenager at Peter Scullin Reserve, Mordialloc, after he refused to take him, 12.01am, Wednesday 31 August.

The driver told Mordialloc police he arrived at the rotunda to collect a passenger known as Angelica, or similar, to take her to Chelsea Heights. A group of eight teenagers – six males and two females – approached him and four males hopped in the cab. The driver explained he could not take them without the designated passenger being present and a verbal dispute began. When he asked them to get out, one of the males, possibly named “Jack”, leant back in and punched him

to the face. The attacker is described as Caucasian, aged 17-19, thin build, 177-183cm, pale skin, brown hair, and wearing a black puffer jacket.

Drunk and disorderly

A MAN said to be drunk and belligerent smashed items on a reception desk and stole a quantity of cash from QJY massage studio, 10pm, Tuesday 30 August, before running away.

Cheltenham police were told the man had asked for a massage but was told the studio was closed. He began swearing at the receptionist and knocking items onto the floor before pushing over a desk and spying a small safe inside. He demanded the safe be opened but, when his order was refused, he punched the safe door open and stole the cash.

The man pushed the receptionist over and fled the studio along Nepean Highway, with the receptionist in hot pursuit and calling on staff at a neighbouring Thai restaurant to call the police.

The man is described as Caucasian, aged 28-35, solid build, 185cm, short fair hair, brown eyes and Australian accent.

overnight, Friday 2 September, but thieves did not manage to enter the premises and nothing was stolen. A passer-by saw the damage to the door in the surgery in The Strand and called Mordialloc police. They found the front door deadlocked and glass shards all over the reception area.

Meat stolen

OFFENDERS kicked and jemmied open a door to the Garden of Good and Evil restaurant, Station Rd, Cheltenham, and stole a large quantity of cash, early Wednesday 31 August. Kingston detectives are examining CCTV footage.

TASSIE Fine Foods, in Downard St, Braeside, was entered by force, overnight Saturday 3 September, in the second robbery at the premises in the past 12 months. The thieves jemmied open a fire exit door and entered upstairs offices, stealing the CCTV camera hard drive.

They used an angle grinder to cut open a small safe, stealing a quantity of cash.

They then stole keys to a Toyota Hi-Ace van and loaded 12 boxes of meat from the cold room valued at $6000 into the van.

The thieves attempt to load a $10,000 pressure cleaner into the van using a forklift, however it fell to the ground and was damaged and left behind.

School break-in

THIEVES stole cash and USB sticks from the Mentone Grammar School early learning centre, Naples Rd, after jumping a high fence and using a ladder to enter an unlocked awning window.

They used secateurs to force open filing cabinets, stealing cash, but left iPads untouched in the early Friday 2 September raid.

Kick in the teeth

Assault fear

A COMMUTER walking to Carrum train station on his way to work thought he was about to be assaulted when a man approached him and started rolling up his sleeves, 8am, Monday 5 September.

The man, 39, told Chelsea police he was walking north in Valetta Street when the man walked up to him and asked if he wanted to buy “some hydroponics”.

When the commuter refused he said the man raised his fist and appeared about to punch him before he managed to grab the man by the shoulders and throw him to the ground.

When he was on the ground the offender said he was going to kill the assualted man.

He then got up and walked south in Valetta St. As he was walking away the offender exposed his buttocks to the victim.

The man is described as Caucasian, aged 30-40, heavy build, 167cm, wearing a black tracksuit top and pants, with a shaved head.

Long wait until ships come in – if ever Keith Platt keith@baysidenews.com.au THE first report by Infrastructure Victoria into the best site for Victoria’s second container port is scheduled to go to the state government in May 2017.

The two options being investigated are Hastings in Western Port and Bay West in Port Phillip, but Infrastructure Victoria has cautioned that “evidence we gather may not be conclusive enough to identify a preferred location”.

“We won’t reduce government’s strategic flexibility by making a premature recommendation now, particularly because it would be based on evidence that is likely to change.

“The final decision to invest in a second container port is still likely to be a number of years away, so deciding on its location is not necessary until this time.”

The government agency has stated that it sees expanding existing ports or building new ones “a last option”.

It says the smarter approach is to make better use of existing assets, including port road and rail links, and to manage demand, such as spreading truck movements more evenly throughout the day and night.

Infrastructure Victoria has also warned that both Hastings and Bay West require “significant dredging, reclamation of land (creating new land using dredge material), and construction of land transport connections”.

Environment impacts of developing either site will not be made in time for next year’s report as “both

sites are located in or adjacent to environmentally-sensitive areas”.

Details of Infrastructure Victoria’s investigation into Victoria’s future port needs were released last week in the discussion paper “Preparing advice on Victoria’s future ports capacity”.

The report says the annual rate of increased container traffic being handled at Melbourne has levelled out over the past few years and now sits at less than three million a year.

It says the port’s limit is eight to seven million containers a year (Victorian Ports Strategic Framework, 2004), although in 2010 the government be-

lieved a second container port was needed by the late 2020s, with Hastings seen as the preferred location.

Times and governments have changed and the current Labor state government swung away from Hasting to favour Bay West.

Notwithstanding which site is best, Infrastructure Victoria says it would take up to 15 years for a port to be up and running and that, if built, it should be done in stages to avoid overspending.

Its costings for Bay West and Hastings will be based on a new port able to handle three million containers at

first and have the capability of being expanded for up to six or 10 million containers.

However, Infrastructure Victoria’s report keeps referring back to the reason for its investigation as being if and when a new container port is needed.

The report also mentions redistributing the types of cargoes handled at the existing ports of Hastings, Geelong and Portland.

“The most important thing to acknowledge about planning for future commercial port capacity is the high degree of uncertainty about future conditions,” the report states.

“Our main focus is on the need for, and timing of, a second container port, and where it might be located. In preparing our advice we will also consider the possible relocation of other trades between Victoria’s ports (for example, motor vehicles, chemicals, grain, break bulk cargo and fuel) or terminals for cruise ships, and what factors may drive any relocation.

“Reducing uncertainty while preserving flexibility is the key driver in our analysis of the timing for investment in new ports capacity. In the short to medium term, allowing the Port of Melbourne to grow to its largest feasible capacity is the most costeffective way of meeting increased Victorian container throughput.

“Maximising existing ports’ capacity ensures a second port is built only when it is needed.”

“The scope set out by government is clear. We need to provide advice on when to invest in extra container port capacity, and where – at either a Hastings or Bay West location,” Infrastructure Victoria’s CEO Michel Masson said when releasing the discussion paper.

“We will consider a range of aspects in preparing our advice, including the environmental, economic and social impacts of developing a new port.

“In some areas, we are not starting from scratch. We will consider any existing work provided to us on the previous assessments of these sites, and undertake technical investigations where there are gaps in our knowledge.”

The discussion paper is available at yoursay.infrastructurevictoria.com.au

State ready to take helm at Port of Hastings THE state government appears to be getting ready to take over the day-today running of the Port of Hastings.

The 20-year contract with port manager Patrick Ports Hastings ends next June and the government is awaiting a report on management options from the Port of Hastings Development Authority.

The authority now has a staff of eight, far fewer than the 61 – including 31 contractors – it employed just two years ago when the previous Liberal National coalition government was proceeding with plans for a container terminal at Hastings.

Those plans ended abruptly with the election of the Daniel Andrews-led Labor government, which said a deci-

sion on where to locate the state’s next major port would rest on advice from Infrastructure Victoria.

Time lines for a container port being built at Hastings, if ever, are now put at 15 to 30 years. Latest figures show the port is now visited each year by 50 “big” ships (50,000100,000 tonnes) and 100 “small” ships (100-2000 tonnes).

However, the government says Hastings “offers significant development opportunities for bulk industries including the refined fuel, oil and gas industries”.

That statement was made in a 1 April news release announcing the appointment of Malcolm Geier as CEO of the Port of Hastings Devel-

opment Authority.

Mr Geier took over from long term former Mornington Peninsula Shire CEO, Michael Kennedy, whose interim appointment saw him replace the authority’s first CEO, Mike Lean.

“Mr Geier brings to the role substantial qualifications following a successful 10 years at the Port of Portland, with the last six years as business development manager during a major growth period which saw significant increases in exports and volume,” the April news release issued by Mr Donnellan’s office stated.

In the past couple of weeks the authority has cut its staff from 13 to eight.

The latest round of cuts included

the executive assistant, its engineering manager, procurement manager, IT manager and acting chief financial officer.

Mr Geirer said “having the state manage the port” was one of the options the port authority had investigated.

He said the most recent shedding of five jobs ensured the authority “is the right size moving forward”.

“If the state took over the port we would need to add nine staff, mirroring what’s there [employed by Patricks] now,” Mr Geier said.

Patrick’s has 10 staff based at Stony Point, including harbourmaster Shane Vedamuttu, who has been there for 15 years, assistant harbourmasters, and

office and maintenance staff.

“I don’t know when the government will make its decision, but we will soon be submitting information to the state,” Mr Geirer said.

He said the port authority’s role was to “use public money efficiently, make sure we do”.

The Port of Hastings includes piers and wharves managed by Patrick at BlueScope Steel and Long Island Point, Hastings, and the Crib Point and Stony Point jetties.

Patrick Ports also manages Western Port’s channels and the port waters.

Stony Point is also used by ferries servicing French and Phillip islands and for berthing harbour tugs.

dental service to the peninsula.

“I started working as a dentist back in 1982 in Frankston and had always worked on the Mornington Peninsula. In 2007 I packed up and went to Ceduna on the Nullarbor Plain to work in aboriginal

communities,” says Dr Albery, who ended up staying there for four years.

“I helped to set up a government clinic there and then came back to Mornington where I opened my practice, after encouragement by friends and relatives.”

Dental Studio 2-Twenty offers the latest technology, state of the art equipment,and the bonus of three decades of experience treating people.

Dr Albery has undertaken advanced training in crown, bridge and implants dentistry, and completed his Advanced Diploma of Myotherapy in Myofascial Acupuncture. He is a founding member of the Australian Society of Dental Aesthetics and a founding member of the Peninsula Headache Clinic.

“As a professional team, we pride ourselves on our excellent customer service, as well as our expertise and state of the art dental technology.

When you come to Dental Studio 2-Twenty, you don’t just get the very best in restorative and cosmetic dentistry – you get a fast, friendly service, personalised to suit your needs and budget,” says Dr Albery.

Dental Studio 2-Twenty is a practice focused on advanced cosmetic and restorative dentistry, and we can help with everything from restoring worn and broken down teeth to replacing missing teeth with dentures, crowns, bridges or dental implants.

Are you at risk of falling? We can help you FALLS are the leading cause of unintentional injury in older Australians. As well as physical injury, falls can cause loss of confidence and fear of falling, so over time, older people may become less active, which may increase their risk of falling.

Evidence suggests falls can be prevented by exercising, modifying the environment (particularly at home) and reducing some medications.

Vitamin D and calcium supplements can also reduce fall-related fractures.

(State Government Victoria) In Victoria, falls accounted for almost three-quarters (72%) of injury related hospital admissions and more than half (53%) of injury related emergency department presentations (Clapperton & Fernando 2014).

At St. John of God Frankston Rehabilitation Hospital, our evidence based falls prevention programs target the most at risk in our community. You don’t have to have experienced a fall to take part in a falls prevention program you may only be experiencing some balance problems and are at risk of sustaining a fall.

Our multidisciplinary rehabilitation team will complete a comprehensive individual assessment and prescribe the right program for you. Our team is led by a rehabilitation physician and includes a physiotherapist, occupational therapist, nurse, dietician, social worker, psychologist and exercise physiologist.

Our outpatient group program runs over six weeks with participants

attending twice per week. The education component will teach you what is important in preventing falls, whilst the exercise component will help you get fitter, stronger and improve your balance, thereby reducing the risk of falling.

You will learn key strategies you can use at home or in the community and

many of our patients find they become more and more independent as their confidence grows with every session.

Don’t let the fear of falling, impede your ability to venture out and enjoy life to the fullest.

Make the first step, contact us and see what we can do to help reduce your risk of falling.

How do you attend our hospital?

Inpatients – you can choose who provides your rehabilitation after your acute hospital stay. Simply ask to have your rehabilitation at our hospital and one of our Rehabilitation Assessment Nurses will visit you to plan your stay with us.

Your Hearing Questions Answered Is it important for patients to see an audiologist if they think they may be having difficulties hearing?

Yes, if you are starting to notice difficulties it’s important to have a full hearing test. We don’t just test which sounds you can hear, we also check how clearly you can understand speech, in quiet and in background noise.

Some common indications that you may have a hearing loss are: • Turning the TV up • Frequently asking for repeats • Not being able to hear properly on the telephone • Difficulty in noisy situations such as restaurants • Missing out on important parts of the conversation • Often your partner or a close family member may be the first person to notice that you are having difficulty hearing.

Is it true that a lot of patients don’t actually need hearing aids?

Yes. Probably 25 percent of those that we see do choose to get hearing aids.

Some people have a little bit of hearing loss that we just need to talk about, and continue to monitor.

Are there steps people who aren’t ready for hearing aids can do to help combat hearing loss?

Yes. Pick a seat in a restaurant where you can see the faces of the people that you are taking to. This can make it

easier to follow what they are saying.

With the television, if you’re not ready for hearing aids, we can get a set of cordless headphones. These can be one of the best options for hearing the TV clearly.

aids are suitable for most people these days.

What is your philosophy on health care?

How much do hearing aids cost?

If I wouldn’t do it for my Mum or Dad, I don’t do it for a patient. When I’m making recommendations for a patient, I think “if this was my mum or dad, with this hearing loss, and these difficulties, would I be making the same recommendations?”. If the answer is “yes”, then I know I’m doing my best for a patient.

Most people who are on a Centrelink pension (such as an age pension or a disability pension) are eligible for the Office of Hearing Services Voucher program. This enables them to choose from a range of hearing aids that are “free-to-client”. These hearing aids have improved significantly over the past few years, and a lot of people are pleasantly surprised at how natural they sound, and how small and comfortable they can be. Pensioners can also choose to contribute to more expensive hearing aids if they wish.

Are there ever very simple solutions to hearing loss?

Yes. Sometimes a hearing loss can be caused by ear wax blocking the canal.

If someone needs a hearing aid, should they always choose the most expensive, top-of-the-line model?

Most people don’t need the most expensive hearing aids, fully loaded with all the bells and whistles. It really is patient specific. You don’t always need the absolute top-of the-line hearing aid technology, if the features that you need are available in something less expensive.

For people who are not eligible for the voucher program, hearing aids typically start at $2,700 for a pair.

What brand of hearing aids to you recommend?

At Chelsea Hearing, we always offer you a range of options, and it is up to you to choose something that you are comfortable with. You should never feel pressured to proceed with hearing aids that you don’t feel ready for.

Are smaller hearing aids more expensive?

Generally, the style of the hearing aid does not have very much impact on the price. There are very good, small hearing aids available at all price points.

Larger hearing aids are not necessarily less expensive either. The good news is that the very small, comfortable hearing

Chelsea Hearing is an independent clinic. We fit hearing aids from all of the major manufacturers. Our recommendations are made after we have tested your hearing, looked in your ears, and had a discussion about the things that you want to hear well.

We also take the time to consider your preference for style and size of the hearing aids, as well as your budget. We will recommend the most appropriate hearing aids for you, and we will always give you a range of options to choose from.

What does the relationship you have with your patients mean to you?

The patient comes first. The patient is your customer and you want to have the healthiest, happiest patient that you can. That makes me happy as well. To know that we are helping that patient to be happy is just rewarding.

What is one thing about your job that really sticks out in a positive way?

when treating patients?

My number one rule is to take things at the right pace of the individual patient.

Some people come in here, and they know they want to get hearing aids and they want to get it all happening as quickly as possible. Other people come in, and they are having some difficulties hearing, but they don’t know if they have a hearing loss. They may need a little bit more time to understand their hearing loss, and the options available.

It doesn’t help anyone to push someone in to getting hearing aids before they are ready for them, or to pressure someone to purchase hearing aids that cost more than they are comfortable with. Sometimes the best thing to do is explain what’s causing the problem, and what solutions are available. It can also be helpful to bring your partner or a close family member to your appointment with you.

It’s really nice to be able to make a difference for people. Often the partner of the person with a hearing loss may have been repeating themselves and having to speak louder for years. When we help with a hearing loss (often with hearing aids) it’s often the family members who notice the benefit first.

Suddenly they don’t have to repeat everything, and they don’t get so tired from speaking loudly all day. It can make a big difference for the whole family.

Do you have rules that you live by

Hearing problems?

We can help you Chelsea Hearing is accredited by the Office of Hearing Services to provide services to eligible pensioners. This includes free to client hearing tests and hearing aids.

Live by design WITH the harsh Australian weather conditions, one thing that really suffers is the old door and window frames of the family home. That’s why a couple of switched on lads decided to bring Living Design Double Glazing to the Mornington Peninsula. And now the business has grown so much they have needed to upgrade their factory and showroom.

“We have just relocated our business to Factory 1, 7 Lyall Street, Hastings, and were previously at Factory 2. We will be having a grand opening later in September,” said Kim Lamour of Living Design, manufacturers of the best Rehau German engineered UPVC windows and doors available in Australia.

“The windows and doors are high performance, maintenance free and double glazed. If your windows are rotted, it’s the perfect time to get the

boys to come out and do a free quote.

The Rehau windows and door frames are perfect as replacements for your tired old windows and doors. They maximise energy efficiency, are sound proof and significantly reduce noise, keep in heating and cooling, and you will never have to paint again,” said Kim. Specifically designed for the Australian climate, Rehau is non-flammable, internally glazed as standard, enhance security, non-corrosive, dust proof, energy efficient, cyclone rated and weather proof, and have a 10 year unconditional guarantee including installation.

“We also recently received a five star rating for our installation and manufacturing which was carried out by an independent person.”

TAKE A TRIP ON ISLAND CRUISE WITH A DIFFERENCE

Simon’s a bit of a no-hoper, and he is going deaf. He goes in search of a magical - but possibly mythical - island where, he thinks, he will find some consolation. To make the journey, Simon teams up with Michael, a dull banker with a duller life, and Michael’s wife, Ginny, who is about to leave him. Also along

for the ride is Claude, a blisteringly annoying blockhead with zero social skills.

Launching from a jetty of loss and melancholy, Simon’s Final Sound takes the audience on a colourful South Seas voyage with plenty of hula skirts, high-jinx and belly laughs, and makes land on an island of insight and compassion.

See Simon’s Final Sound at Frankston Arts Centre on September 13 at 8pm. Tickets $46 to $52.

Bookings: thefac.com.au or phone 9784 1060.

INTERNATIONAL comedy star, David Strassman’s brand new show, iTED E is an uproarious take on our technology-­laden lives.

The sharp-­tongued Chuck Wood and loveable Ted E. Bare have been thrust into the world of social media, constantly on their iPads and iPhones, not interacting with the real world.

With everyone connected to social media and the internet 24/7, will Strassman get them back under control?

Strassman’s iTedE introduces an amazing new technology that brings the world’s most advanced Puppetronics to the stage. In a world-­first feat, Strassman simultaneously operates 5 characters in a hilarious never-­ before-­done, 6-­way conversation, using a handheld wireless remote control that sets new standards in ventriloquism.

Combined with cutting edge lighting and state-­of-­the-­art production, Strassman and

his well known puppet characters will bring mayhem and theatrics to a set designed by one of New York’s most renowned stage designers, Luke Cantarella.

Since his early performances in the 1990s, Strassman has been embraced in Australia and completed numerous television appearances as well as his own show on Channel Nine called ‘Strassman’, with subsequent series on ITV England and TV3 New Zealand. iTedE will be sure to delight audiences with side-­splitting comedy, jaw dropping Puppetronics and a visual feast on stage. It’s the ultimate great night out.

Stonecats hang on in epic PENINSULA LEAGUE

By Toe Punt IF it bleeds, you can kill it!

That was a famous line used by arguably the greatest ever AFL footballer Leigh Matthews in 2001 when he was referring to his great Brisbane Lions side beating Essendon.

For movie buffs, they’ll know he grabbed the line from Arnold Schwarzenegger in the movie Predator.

Suffice to say that it can be used again in reference to the great Frankston YCW, a team that was wounded on Saturday in the second semi-final against Mt Eliza but as great sides do, still managed to win a thriller 18.7 (115) to 17.8 (110).

What it proved to Peninsula football supporters is that the 2016 premiership is not a one horse race.

That wasn’t the case at the halfway mark of the season when Mt Eliza was belted by the Stonecats at Wooralla Drive by almost 100 points.

Mt Eliza were down and on the canvas early in the match when they trailed by as much as six goals. Every time they came at YCW the champs responded.

Even in the last quarter when somehow Mt Eliza got their noses in front, YCW were able to steady the ship and get back out to a 20 point lead.

However, what we saw late in the game was something we haven’t see from a side against YCW in the past.

What people admire about the Stonecats is their ability to absorb pressure for long periods, physically and mentally wear down a side and perform for better longer – they have been doing it for more than a decade.

Opposition in the past have failed to be able to go the distance.

That changed on Saturday. Mt Eliza came storming home late to get within five points in an entertaining, high quality, intense game of football.

At one end of the ground, YCW’s Anthony Bruhn was dominating with seven goals. At the other end, Justin Van Unen returned from a serious hamstring injury to boot seven goals.

The midfield battles of Rohan Heasley and Lachy Wallace were a feature, both outstanding for their respective teams.

The hard and tough Luke Collins and Dave Barton went toe to toe and were significant for their teams. Paul Minchington proved again how good a player he is, especially on the big stage and Scott McLeod and Kevin Lylak were at their best for the winners.

Matt Lille had a tough job in the ruck for the Redlegs but rose to the occasion, Sam Gill led from the front and Jimmy Clayton almost received the ultimate celebration in his club record breaking 222nd game.

The game had everything – freakish acts, selfless acts and 35 goals in a second semi – it was a crowd pleaser.

The Stonecats got what they wanted though – a pathway straight to the grand final.

Mt Eliza will need to front up again this Sunday in the Preliminary Final with a lot more work to do.

Mt Eliza will play Pines in the Preliminary Final this Sunday after it smashed Bonbeach for the third time this season.

Pythons forwards Aaron Edwards, Guy Hendry and Tim Bongetti dominated the Sharks, who overused the footy.

The Sharks were blown away early and never got close to the Pythons.

The top three are the last three standing in the Peninsula finals race.

High five: Despite being pushed by Mt Eliza, Frankston YCW got across the line by five points. Picture: Scott Memery

Putting the grand into finals SPECTATORS were entertained by 12 thrilling Mornington Peninsula Junior Football League grand finals on Sunday 28 August.

Matches were played from under-11s to under-17s with three separate age groups for girls’ football.

Tight contests were the order of the day with the under-11 grand final between South Mornington and Dromana in Navy Division going to extra time after the scores were all tied up after four quarters. South Mornington eventually won the match.

In other grand final results: Junior girls: Beleura 2.2-14 d. Mt Martha 0.1-1.

Under-15s: Mt Martha 13.12-90 d. Somerville 8.7-55.

Under-14s: Sorrento 11.12-78 d. Balnarring 5.11-41.

In the grand final under-12s White Division Somerville Gold JFC 8.6-54 defeated Red Hill JFC 3.3-21.

The day ended with the under-17s grand final between Crib Point and Rye – the MPJFL’s first twilight final. The national anthem was sung before the game as a helicopter delivered the match ball and premiership cup.

Crib Point won by seven points: 10.9-69 to 9.8-62.

“That was a fitting end to a truly magic day,” MPJFL secretary Paul Bartolo said.

The finals were held at the Thomas Barclay Reserve, Hastings.

Blues and Bombers to square off in Granny NEPEAN LEAGUE

By Toe Punt HASTINGS will play Frankston Bombers in the 2016 Nepean Division Grand Final this Saturday at Frankston Park after hanging on to win a thriller against Rosebud.

The Blues have beaten Red Hill, Somerville and now Rosebud in the lead up to the big dance and have just one more top five side to beat to claim the 2016 title.

The minor premiers Frankston are the only team to stand in their way, having the ideal preparation of a rest in week one of the finals and then another break after advancing through after winning their second semi-final.

Hastings kicked the opening goal of the game and were never headed in the match despite being challenged, eventually winning 14.11 (95) to 12.16 (88).

Blues coach Brendan Dunne told the RPP commentary team straight after the game that his side “had been building for the past six weeks” to get to this point.

“The Sorrento match at home in tough, wet conditions was a defining moment for the group,” Dunne said.

“We lose that match and our season could have gone the other way.

We win and the season is set up for us.

“It felt like something clicked within the group on that day and we haven’t really looked back.

“We have been training extremely well, our performances have been a

lot more consistent and we have absolute buy in from the entire group about the way we want to play our footy.

“There is a Hastings brand now and it’s taken three years to slowly build to get to this point,” Dunne said.

The coach was absolutely superb throughout the match, leading the backline along with Paul Rogasch, both taking telling marks, laying important tackles and providing enormous structure and leadership during the tense final quarter.

Dunne said his body was feeling the effects of running back with the flight of the ball one too many times, but conceded he wouldn’t swap the feeling for anything.

“I’m grateful to be still playing and having an opportunity to win a premiership,” Dunne said.

“I missed 21 weeks of work though injury last year and I thought that might have been it. I did the preseason, the body felt great and here I am now. It’s a really good feeling.

“All we’ve done though is earn the right. It’s a good achievement to get there, but you don’t play to get there, you play to win it. We’ve got the opportunity,” Dunne said.

Dunne was clearly one of Hastings’ best on Saturday, along with Rogasch and underrated full back Lance Brouwer, who is rarely beaten despite having some big jobs most weeks.

The Hastings’ forward line again looked dangerous with Dale Alanis,

Luke Hewitt, Col McVeigh and Stevey Robb all kicking multiple goals.

Robb lit up Tyabb in the final quarter. Hewitt could have put the opposition to the sword and should have finished with five or six goals. He was still outstanding though.

Through the middle, Mark Devereaux and Pete Mawson got first use of the footy, Josh Mulheron competed well with Ben Dwyer and Shaun Foster, Luke Clark and Matt Clifford played the swing men roles to perfection, both reliable and damaging in all areas of the ground.

Despite getting out to a four goal break deep in the last quarter, Rosebud never stopped coming.

You have to take your hat off to the Buds. They were relentless and their leaders in Rhys Bancroft, Greg Bentley, Dwyer, Brenton Payne and Ryan Spooner willed their team to the finish line.

The Downie brothers are bonafide stars! Keegan should be on an AFL Rookie List, such is his enormous talent. His aerial ability is breathtaking. He finished with three goals.

His little brother Sean got belted from pillar to post but continued to pick himself up off the deck. Sean kicked a game-high four majors.

Dale Stephens and Daniel Wilson were also stand outs for the Buds.

It was a sensational season for Rosebud, given the calibre of players they lost during the pre-season.

For Hastings, they are in the big dance against Frankston Bombers this Saturday at Frankston Park.
