2.4 Action Item Register Public
It was agreed that the Committee would like to receive a regular report from the GM Maaori Health on how they are engaging with Maaori on disability issues in relation to their current work programme. The Committee would also like to receive some advice on how data is being collected on the effectiveness of our policies for Maaori with disabilities and a copy of the Maaori Health Plan. Ms Brown to follow up with Mr Sefita Hao’uli in relation to him stepping down from the Committee in order for a Pacific representative with a disability focus to be appointed.
3. Disability Strategy
3.1 Clinician Literacy Update (Ms Kim Wiseman and Ms Linda Berkett)
Ms Wiseman gave the Committee an overview on activities to date and outlined the proposed next sets with regard to the disability support plan for Building Capability. Since the last update there has been considerable activity aimed at building clinician capability in a number of areas, however further targeted work may be needed:
Values refresh – a resource for mangers to use as an exercise with their teams as part of their regular meetings on the ABC of appreciation and BUILD has been developed.
The AI2DET tool is being adapted to incorporate more emphasis on ensuring patients and their whaanau are given the opportunity to reflect their understanding of their health status and treatment as well as giving an opportunity to clarify any misunderstandings.
A health literacy learning module has been developed and is being rolled out in primary care as part of the ARI programme. Health literacy sessions are also being delivered to teams in secondary care.
An International Day of Persons with Disabilities is planned for 3 December. Ms Birkett to follow up with Eastgate Community Trust in relation to their recent art exhibition by disabled people to have this art available on 3 December. Ms Wiseman to ensure we get appropriate comms out about the 3 December.
Ongoing discussion around data collection – we do not currently capture any disability data from our patients which makes reporting on the number of patients living with a disability who use our services challenging and problematic. Mr Chadwick to agenda for discussion at the regional DiSAC meeting in 2016 how we can capture better data for disabled people.
A draft work plan for 2016 has been proposed to identify if and where we are falling short for people in our community who are living with disability. This will need to be formally agreed through the Executive Leadership Team but we are hopeful that the work can be completed in Q1 with the findings and actions reported back to DiSAC in June 2016. The Committee asked Ms Wiseman to include talking to disabled staff under the ‘Staff Experience’ area of the proposed work plan.
Counties Manukau District Health Board – Disability Support Advisory Committee 9 March 2016
Resolution The Disability Support Advisory Committee agreed the proposed work plan for 2016. Moved: Ms Colleen Brown Seconded: Dr Lee Mathias Carried: Unanimously
4. Presentation
4.1 Health Navigator (Ms Janine Bycroft and Ms Susie Hill, Auckland DHB) Ms Janine Bycroft & Ms Susie Hill provided the Committee with a presentation on Health Navigator highlighting the following:
(Dr Lee Mathias arrived 12.56pm)
Health Navigator is a charitable trust that was set up eight years ago.
The Health IT Board are interested in Health Navigator and do provide some funding, albeit not a lot.
Health Navigator is linked to the MoH website through ‘Your Health’.
Health Navigator has been tested for disabled people.
Health Navigator is building up Facebook visibility and could link through to the CM Health Facebook page and also looking at putting more short videos on Health Navigator.
The Committee agreed that the CM Health website should have a link to Health Navigator and Healthpoint on its front page. The Chair thanked the presenters for their update on Health Navigator.
5. Terms of Reference 5.1 CM Health DiSAC Terms of Reference
There was discussion that the current DiSAC Terms of Reference should include references to the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and should note that because it is difficult to distinguish between disability and personal health issues for older people, it is expected that DiSAC will deal with Health of Older People across the full range of issues and services for this age group. The Committee agreed that their preference would be that the DiSAC Terms of Reference are consistent across the Auckland region however, agreed that our Clause 2.3 should read: “The Committee’s advice must be consistent with the New Zealand Disability Strategy and the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities”. Resolution The Disability Support Advisory Group recommend to the Board that, subject to the change noted above, the current CM Health DiSAC Terms of Reference are rewritten to align with the joint Auckland and Waitemata District Health Boards’ Terms of Reference for consistency across the Auckland region. Moved: Dr Lee Mathias Seconded: Mr Ezekiel Robson Carried: Unanimously

Counties Manukau District Health Board Disability Support Advisory Committee
Whaanau Ora Update
Recommendation It is recommended that the Disability Support Advisory Committee: Receive the attached report noting our endeavor to:
Apply an outcome based approach to Whaanau Ora with Maaori health providers
Work more closely and collaboratively with Te Pou Matakana in the future
Prepared and submitted by: Riki Nia Nia, General Manager, Maaori Health Background Whaanau Ora Planning & Prioritisation In November 2015, the Whaanau Ora Partnership Group agreed to a set of indicators to support Whaanau Ora. The Whaanau Ora Partnership Group is a Crown-iwi advisory body responsible for the strategic leadership of Whaanau Ora. Chaired by the Minister for Whaanau Ora, it consists of equal membership comprising six representatives from the Iwi Chairs Forum (identified by the National Iwi Chairs Forum) and six Ministers representing the Crown. The Whaanau Ora Partnership Group provides leadership to Whaanau Ora by setting its direction and priorities and overseeing its progress and success. The five government agencies are Ministries of Health, Finance, Education, Social Development, and Economic Development. Health sector activity will need to focus on progress in five key areas that contribute to Whaanau Ora - mental health, asthma, oral health, obesity and tobacco – to achieve accelerated progress towards health equity for Maaori and Pacific and Whaanau Ora in the next four years. In addition to progress in these areas, DHBs will be expected to continue work with the three Whaanau Ora Commissioning Agencies across the country. Whaanau Ora in our hospital Last year we reviewed the internal Maaori support service and strengthened the model of care which means the service is now more targeted and operating using a case management approach. To strengthen this approach we have appointed a new clinical leader (Audra Laughland) with many years of experience working with our Maaori communities. The new service now prioritises our children and their families. In the future we will be able to report the impact of the service for the whaanau it supports and works with. Whaanau Ora in the community We continue to work toward the implementation of a Whaanau Ora Outcomes Contracting approach with Maaori health providers in our community that are within the Integrated Services
Counties Manukau District Health Board – Disability Support Advisory Committee 9 March 2016
Agreement. Our aim is to begin this new contracting approach on 1 July 2016. By aligning our provider’s services to an outcomes framework we will be in a better place to articulate the impact of these providers services for the whaanau they support and work with. Whaanau Ora Commissioning GM Maaori health (from DHBs) have met with Te Pou Matakana (North Island Whaanau Ora Commissioning Group) at the national level and agreed to work together to advance Whaanau Ora in our local communities. While this discussion is still in its formative stages we have agreed the following:
1. Whaanau Ora Commissioning Groups will have a standing agenda item on all future Tumu Whakarae Hui agenda (National GM Maaori Health Network Meeting)
2. To meet locally to identify opportunities for working together with common providers (in CM Health this is Kotahitanga Whaanau Ora Collective) to identify areas we can strengthen our mutual endeavours for the achievement of better whaanau ora outcomes particularly in the areas of mental health, asthma, oral health, obesity and tobacco.
North Island Whaanau Ora commissioning Group (Te Pou Matakana) Te Pou Matakana is the North Island Whaanau Ora commissioning agency. They are responsible for commissioning initiatives that will drive whaanau health and wellbeing by building on the strengths and assets of Māori communities in the region. The Te Pou Matakana Outcomes Framework is a set of tools and processes that enable them to collect the data needed:
• To prove that Te Pou Matakana is having the impact it intends to have • To improve its outcomes for whaanau.
Te Pou Matakana has three key Whaanau Ora products, namely:
1. Collective Impact for Whaanau (Collective Impact is the commitment of a group of Whaanau Ora Partners from different sectors, to be known as a Whaanau Ora Partnership, to a common agenda for achieving Whaanau Ora outcomes).
2. Whaanau Direct (Whaanau Direct aims to enhance the skills and ability of whaanau to grow resilience and respond positively in situations, and enable whaanau to access resources directly in ‘moments that matter).
3. Kaiarahi (Navigation) It is anticipated that this approach will lead to the collaborative and innovative behaviours needed to achieve the best outcomes for whaanau.

Counties Manukau District Health Board Disability Support Advisory Committee DiSAC 2015 Review - Planning for 2016 Focus
Recommendation It is recommended that the Disability Support Advisory Committee: Receive this report. Endorse a regional DiSAC meeting to occur in June. Endorse the regional DiSAC meeting to have a focus on data pertaining to the disability community, namely:
What data is collected and can be shared pertaining to the disability community at a regional population health level.
Processes in place with DHB systems to identify a consumer touching our services who is living with a disability.
Endorse a focus on the local DiSAC for 2016 on:
Monitoring progress on the initiatives underway around clinician literacy.
Monitoring the maturation of the Localities and Community Boards to be able to ensure the voice of the disability community is heard.
Learning from social media campaigns that have been undertaken by CM Health (ie) SnapChat smoking cessation initiative, positive peer pressure to reduce smoking around the hospital, and to determine if there are any lessons that can be applied to raising awareness around the disability community.
Continuing to engage with Health Point and Health Navigator to ensure there is adequate representation of material pertaining to the disability community.
Prepared and submitted by: Martin Chadwick, Director of Allied Health. Purpose In March 2015 DiSAC made the decision to pick up the work that was started by the Disability Advisory Group (DAG) and focus on four key areas over the 2015 calendar year. At the beginning of the 2016 meeting schedule it is timely to review progress against these streams and to confirm an approach for the remainder of the calendar year. Background The initial driver diagram that drove the focus for DiSAC is represented below. The identified goal for activity is that Counties Manukau Health (CM Health) be responsive to the specific needs of the disabled and older persons communities. Identified barriers to achieving this goal where lack of consumer health literacy, lack of clinician literacy, lack of community dialogue, and lack of statistics specific to disabled communities.

At the March meeting an extended session was facilitated with Population Health with a specific lens on Maaori living with disability and the Maaori Disability Action plan for Disability Support Services 2012-2017. Outcomes from this session were a recommendation of support for the First 2000 Day strategy given the impact on early life disability. Also there was a recommendation around liaising further with ACC due to the high statistical representation of Maaori and the need for this to be a focus with prevention strategies. A report back on some of this work is a further paper within the agenda. Feedback was also received from Be.Accessible and the assessment of the Manukau Super Clinic providing a view of how appropriate and accessible our facilities are for the disabled community with an initial silver rating and a clear pathway for a gold rating. In June, the DiSAC Committee focused on Clinician Literacy with a review of the CLAD 8 Module as well as reviewing the documentation prepared by Te Pou to facilitate disability workforce development. Kim Wiseman for the Building Capability Team within Ko Awatea spoke and facilitated a session of the current on-boarding and ongoing development systems in place. The outcome of this session was for Kim’s team to work up what a greater focus on the competencies required of our workforce in working with the disabled community. This work was reported back to the Committee in August and November, and included the enacted plans around celebrating the International Day of Persons with Disabilities. This theme was also carried through with the Winter Ball with a theme of Diversity with a particular focus on embracing people living with a disability. The August session for DiSAC had a strong focus on the voice of the consumer. Presentations were received from the four Locality General Managers as well as the Chair of the Consumer Council. The principles of co-design were reviewed as a part of this session, as well as the linkages to the wider community. The Locality General Managers were able to describe the various stages each locality is at in formally engaging with their respective communities and the next steps that each plans to take.
Counties Manukau District Health Board – Disability Support Advisory Committee 9 March 2016
Feedback was received by the presenters that each opportunity needs to take into account the specific voice of those living with disability as well. The theme of Consumer Health Literacy was continued with the November meeting with a presentation from Health Navigator. This presentation detailed the wealth of information that is available on the website, and it also highlighted the potential for more in the way of information specific to the needs of the disability community that could be represented within the website. Assessment With the work undertaken over the 2015 calendar year, it is timely to review how the focus of DiSAC has been reflected in the original Action Plan.

In this diagram there has been an attempt to represent the progress against the four key themes. With the secondary drivers, a value judgement has been made as to whether progress has been made with green representing good tangible action, and further action planned. Yellow represents where there has been some action, and there is scope for considerable work to be undertaken. Red represents where there has been no tangible action taken to date. Yellow/red represents where there has been some nominal action, but with limited focus specifically on the disability community. While a subjective assessment, it is affirming to note that the area most under the control of CM Health (Clinician Literacy) has seen some tangible gains in the previous year and there are plans for on-going action in the coming year. Community dialogue has also demonstrated progress under the establishment of Localities and the progress towards Community Boards within each, and the Consumer Council. Lessor progress has been made under the streams of Statistics specific to the disability community, and Consumer Health Literacy.
