Joondalup Health Campus Strategic Intent 2017 - 2022

OUR VISION, GROWING WITH OUR COMMUNITY TO PROVIDE EXCELLENT HEALTH CARE, SETS US ON AN ASPIRATIONAL COURSE OF SIGNIFICANT CHANGE. It recognises that to provide excellent health care, we must continue to evolve on many levels. Not only must our infrastructure expand to keep up with the rapid pace of population growth in the northern suburbs, but also the way we deliver health care must transform and broaden. Faced with the increasingly complex medical needs of our population, we must be innovative in providing care beyond the walls of the hospital to remain relevant and sustainable. This means taking greater accountability for how our patients are cared for before, during and after their hospital stay. Within the hospital we plan to provide more complex, tertiarylevel care for certain specialties based on what we know about projected community needs into the future. We intend to explore how to improve patient outcomes through strategic integrated health care partnerships. There is a need to have more comprehensive, in-depth conversations with other health care providers so we can better collaborate for the greater good of our mutual patients. We know that health care is in a time of transition in Australia and worldwide – the landscape is changing substantially and rapidly. This puts us on the verge of an exciting transition. The future looks very different to where we are today – and I know the team at Joondalup Health Campus (JHC) will all embrace the chance to become even more innovative in their thinking to ensure we continue to deliver quality care. This document, Transforming Care, lays out our intentions for realising the growth we need to experience to become the ideal health care provider; the provider that puts patient care front and centre whilst being efficient and providing value as a private provider of public and private services. With this plan we map out what we intend to focus on and what our priorities are in each area. Sitting behind our Strategic Intent lie the details about how we plan to realise our vision with our enabling plans. These include our clinical services plan; community services plan; infrastructure plan; people and culture plan; safety and quality plan; and our speciality and departmental plans. Our vision issues us with a challenge to work with our partners and key stakeholders to facilitate growth. Under this plan, JHC is committed to doing just that. In developing this document we have consulted key stakeholders from across the hospital, consumers and leading international think-tank the Advisory Board, whose research has allowed us to deeply consider what is happening on the global healthcare stage and the impact it will have at a local level. We are very grateful to everyone who has shared their thoughts, ideas and solutions throughout this process. Kempton Cowan Chief Executive Officer “We are on the verge of an exciting transition.
