Future Priorities

ROYAL NORTH SHORE HOSPITAL What now? – Cancer Survivorship Toolkit Royal North Shore Hospital’s “What Now?” project is transforming cancer survivorship care across NSLHD by embedding a consistent, patient-centred Survivorship Model of Care that supports people from diagnosis through to life after treatment. To address gaps in access, coordination, and support—caused by the lack of standardised survivorship care—the team is co-designing a flexible, inclusive Survivorship Care Plan with input from consumers, allied health, nursing, and medical staff. It draws on patient and staff feedback, literature, and includes support from services like

psychology, social work, and dietetics, along with digital resources and referral pathways. Staff will be trained to embed survivorship principles into everyday care. Patients and staff will also provide feedback via QR-coded surveys at key stages of the cancer journey, helping the team track impact and drive improvements. The goal is to build a clear, flexible system that helps survivors stay healthy and confident about their future—making cancer care more personal, supportive, and effective.

PREVENTION AND RESPONSE TO VIOLENCE, ABUSE AND NEGLECT (PARVAN) SERVICE NSLHD PARVAN Domestic and Family Violence Service – Model of Care Development

The NSLHD PARVAN Service will work with key partners to review, update, and clearly outline a model of care for its Domestic and Family Violence Service. This model of care will include all current and newly added services available to people affected by domestic and family violence across NSLHD. The approach will explain the purpose of the service, which is to provide integrated, trauma-informed support. This includes psychosocial and medical care, and, where appropriate, forensic services for

victim survivors. It will also help define what services can be offered with the resources currently available, especially given the high demand for support across NSLHD. Importantly, developing the Model of Care is a chance to improve access to the service for vulnerable and priority groups. This includes victim survivors who are part of the LGBTQ+ community, Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander peoples, and older individuals.
