Harrow Bush Nursing Center Strategic Areas & Actions for Feedback
Introduction.
Request for assistance
This report contains the complete set of possible priority areas and actions that have been identified as a result of Environmental Scanning and community, staff and
stakeholder engagement processes undertaken as a part of the Harrow Bush Nursing Centres (HBNC) Strategic Plan development.

The purpose of this document is to ensure that we have heard and understood what is most important to the community, staff and stakeholders in relation to health and
community service provision now and into the future.

We are once again seeking your feedback in relation to the identified areas and actions contained within this report. We would like to know:

1.   Have we heard and understood what’s important to the community, staff and stakeholders in relation to health and community service provision?
2.   Have we missed capturing any priority areas?
3.   Have we missed capturing any priority actions?
4.   If you could only select six priority actions for the HBNC Strategic Plan what would they be?
5.   Is there anything further you would like us to consider when developing the HBNC Strategic Plan?

Use this survey link to provide your feedback:

Or contact Claire Edwards, Strategic Planning Consultant on 0438112347 (between 5 – 30 July 2021) to provide feedback.

Please note: that whilst each of these areas and actions are important, HBNC is trying to determine
which areas and actions are of highest priority for the community, staff and stakeholders. HBNC will not
be able to complete all of the activities documented in this report but HBNC will be able to complete
those activities deemed to be of highest priority and importance.

Conclusion.
Conclusion
These areas and actions bring together the latest thinking, HBNC experience and, most importantly the experiences of the community, staff and stakeholders to guide HBNC
now and into the future.

The priorities and actions recognise that HNBC are doing well in many areas, but there is room for improvement. It also recognises that people’s needs and the tools to
address them are changing and HBNC needs to keep up with those developments.

In seeking your feedback and assistance to determine the priorities within each of these areas and actions, HBNC is committing to continuing to work with the community,
staff and stakeholders to improve health and well-being outcomes now and well into the future.
