14 Bulletin March 2006 Geoffrey Kaye Museum of Anaesthetic History Into the Future Since its foundation in 1935, the Museum has continued to develop due to the hard work and dedication of a number of interested individuals and in particular Honorary Curators and Assistant Curators including Dr G.

In 2003, the first professionally trained Museum Curator was employed to work closely with the current Honorary Museum Curators to build on past achievements and manage the Museum to best practice standards. Over the past three years a great deal of work has been undertaken to improve the management of the Museum and ensure that it is efficient, relevant and interesting. This has involved the implementation of basic infrastructure including the development of: The first Museum Committee; a Museum office, workroom and display area; a draft collection management policy; the first Museum 3 Year Strategic Plan and the successful completion of the Museum Storage Upgrade and Collection Inventory Project, in December 2005. Some of the key achievements so far include: • Greatly improved storage and object handling systems. • Over 5,000 Collection objects inventoried. • Greatly improved access to objects and documentation. • Tours of the Museum display are available five days a week and include: - Tours for Fellows and Trainees on request. - Tours for Trainees during VRC Courses. - A highly successful Talk and Tour program for community groups such as Rotary Clubs, Probus Groups and, educational and heritage organizations. • Assisting the promotion of ANZCA and its activities through the Talk and Tour Program which promotes the work of anaesthetists within the wider community. • Improved response to research inquiries. • Improved working conditions and security for objects. • Increased use of the Collection: - Objects and information used by Trainees and Fellows in research, conference papers, and various publications. - On site and off site displays. • Introduction of a permanent Museum Display Area on Level 5 of ANZCA House. • First display held at a hospital – St Vincent’s Hospital Display July 2005. • Development of successful on-going working partnerships.
