Our services are sustainable, efficient and committed to planetary health We use a value-based approach to optimise use of resources with a focus on embedding both planetary health and financially sustainable principles in everything we do
Why this is important Value-based healthcare strives to deliver care that improves health outcomes that matter to patients and carers, the experiences of receiving care, the experiences of providing care, and the effectiveness and efficiency of care. It is important that all of the services we provide improve health outcomes and avoid unwarranted clinical variation. By understanding and measuring the patient experience through Patient Reported Measures, we are able to focus on delivering care that matters to patients and carers. Improving the experience of providing care and identifying opportunities for new ways of working will provide clinicians with more time for valuable, person-centred care. Through focusing on value-based care, we can think differently about how we deliver person-centred care, maximise the use of resources, and invest in new and enhanced clinical services.
A truly sustainable organisation is supported by a strong corporate and clinical governance structure that ensures mechanisms are in place to guarantee effective decision making, in line with NSLHD’s Strategic Plan and overall vision. It is important to NSLHD that these structures are inclusive of multidiscplinary teams and consumer input, and
promote a shared sense of responsibility. NSLHD has a responsibility to reduce our
environmental impact while achieving the highest standards of health, wellbeing and equity for our patients, workforce and community. As healthcare professionals, we are uniquely placed to contribute to significant and sustainable change in the field of planetary health. Changes in patterns of disease due to climate change will begin to impact how NSLHD delivers clinical services, the type of services required and the workforce spectrum. Together with achieving our target of Net Zero carbon emissions by 2035, NSLHD must now progress work on implementing adaption and mitigation measures related to climate risk.
