  20. Is Health Reform New? Planning the total health and hospital program in Western Australia the state’s aim should be to keep people out of hospital wherever hospital by overall improvement in public health services and education and by improving and expanding the facilities in the community to provide clinic and home care. The other is that experience throughout the world indicates that wherever hospital beds exist, they tend to be filled. It is axiomatic then that health service planning cannot be centred on how many beds should be built or bought. Health service planning in the first instance must be based on an assessment of the actual health needs of the community, judgement as to which of these can benefit from early intervention and the development and application of risk based strategies and models of care that maximise the preventative element to stop these needs developing to demands on high cost and increasing scarce resources 1975 the Western Australian Parliamentary Public Accounts Committee

  21. What are the common aspirations? Promote health Reduce inequities in health status Safe, high quality, evidence based health care Patient centred care Integration (service collaboration, partnerships and coordination) Value for money Financial sustainability Workforce sustainability

  22. Common elements A tiered capability framework/role delineation that defines the roles of the hospitals, A structural mechanism to integrate the hospital services with primary care. Establishing Clinical Networks

  23. Reform program outputs? Australia’s most advanced hospital Role delineation/service consolidation Safety and sustainability Prevention and promotion Integration Networks

  24. Reform program health outcomes ?

  25. Everything old is new again? All reform programs have a strong element of commonality All have a project flavour – there are even projects for continuous improvement All have “shiny things” Predominantly technical solutions – centralised policy changes Little adaptive direction except in regard to networks All acknowledge networks as a strategy but treat them as a “black box”

  26. ADAPTATION IS NOT A SPECTATOR SPORT!

  27. Involving users, carers, staff and the public Process and systems thinking Personal and organisational development Making it a habit: initiating, sustaining and spreading improvement in daily work Discipline of improvement 4 equally important parts of improvement Process People

  28. Stop, Think, Do

  29. Battery Point – WA Lessons for Tasmania We jump at technical solutions when what is needed is adaptation – behavioural change by those under pressure of predation or extinction We do things when we should just stand there – what is needed is contemplation in action, to step off the dance floor/mosh pit and on to the balcony We put too much effort into defending what we know against uncertainty – enemies that may never materialise and worse – firing shots at potentially useful and powerful allies
