Upcoming referendum

• Cannabis referendum to be held at General Election in 2020

• Substance and gambling harm and addiction is a Health issue

• Places People at the centre

The Current Landscape • Limited consensus on what AOD services should look like

obrief/early intervention

oyouth services

oself-help tools

oAftercare/continuing care support

• Variable/high waiting times for assessment and treatment

• Workforce shortages, information gaps.

• Limited service integration in regions, impacts on access to treatment

Towards a National Addiction Model of Care (1)

• A model of care is a key step towards shaping future services

• Provides a supporting, flexible framework that enables models of care to be developed for regional or local level services

• Encourages integration, collaboration and systems thinking and addresses the limitations / gaps in current services

• What a good addiction treatment system looks like at the

national level - what to include and the principles to underpin it

• Recognises that change has resource implications – will help

inform future service investment decisions.

Towards a National Addiction Model of Care (2)

• We have organised or attended some workshops with the regions – today is another step in our engagement

• Although it is early days we want to reiterate:

• Will align with Government intentions around implementing He Ara Oranga

• We want to work with you - convene and collaborate – and will consult you formally.

How would you like us to engage with you / your organisation?

Draft Values & Principles

• Equity – mana-enhancing care

Draft Outcomes• Improves wellbeing across various domains

o seamless integration between AOD and related care and support services (eg housing)

• More effective and culturally appropriate service responses

Examples of what transformed services might look like

support)• Package of care based on assessed need/risk, choice of

services and wrap around support.
