Northland was in the process of becoming the first New Zealand DHB to join the Australasian ‘Mayo Wellbeing Index’, facilitated by Health Roundtable, which would enable staff to monitor and benchmark their wellbeing and provides access to resources and support. Paul Welford, Chief Operating Officer (COO), agreed to report back on how seriously operational managers took the topic. 2.0 Committee Minutes 2.1 Confirmation of Minutes 26 August 2019 It was moved that the minutes of the meeting held on 26 August 2019 be approved. MOVED Sally McCauley SECONDED Denise Jensen CARRIED 2.2 Matters/Actions Arising 2.2.1 Report on formal implementation of domestic violence leave provisions The Domestic Violence Leave policy had been developed and would be implemented following final approval by the Operational Management Group on 20 December. 2.2.2 Report on compliance with mandatory training targets Statistics had not been compiled comprehensively to-date in the way that had been requested. A review was being undertaken on which courses were required to be mandatory including comparing the number Northland categorises as mandatory compared to other DHBs. Reporting would commence once that exercise had been completed. 2.2.3 Dispensing full courses of medications on discharge It was confirmed that this had been implemented across the hospital, including in ED and child health, for at-risk patients. Hospital Advisory Committee Draft Minutes 18 November 2019 1 / 4 6 2.2.4 Name of Dargaville out-of-hours service The service had been referred to as an ‘ED’ although it did not perform this function. A more appropriate name was yet to be decided. 3.0 Chair’s Report The Chair had no report for this meeting. 4.0 System Performance 4.1 Operational Report The COO highlighted the following points from the operational report: Implementation of phase one of the Managerial Structure Review had commenced, including the redistribution of services across directorates reporting to the COO. The ongoing problem of ED being delayed in admitting patients to wards was noted for discussion at the Board meeting. Work had been continuing to find opportunities to improve contracting, for example a significant saving had been achieved by outsourcing of anatomical pathology. Various ACC initiatives were also being investigated, including increasing revenue from surgery, treatment injuries and MRI. A business case was being developed to move rehabilitation to rural hospitals. Many wards had noted a lull in activity with beds being available and had been able to stand staff down. Union actions had been continuing with some withdrawal of services. Ian McKenzie, GM Mental health & Addiction Services, gave an overview of the work of Mental Health and Addiction Services in relation to the recent national Mental Health review. The outcome of the Mental Health review had seen a shift in emphasis from focussing on specialist services to providing increased primary care mental health support in the community.

  • Indigenous Vegetation and Habitat
    Part C – Policies – Indigenous Vegetation and Habitat 17 Indigenous Vegetation and Habitat 17.1 Significant Issues Loss of biodiversity and fragmentation of significant indigenous vegetation and significant habitats of indigenous fauna arising from land clearance, pest invasions, modification of indigenous wetlands, subdivision, use and development. Low representation of threatened and/or rare vegetation and habitat types in the protected areas network within the District. Finding a balance between the protection of ecosystems and ecological processes, and sustainable land development and use. Lack of public understanding of ecological processes and values leading to inappropriate land use. 17.2 Overview Since first human settlement in the District, large areas of native forests and shrub lands, freshwater indigenous wetlands, mangrove forest, mudflats and coastline have been lost or modified by direct or indirect human impacts. As a result of habitat changes, the District has a high number of endangered and threatened species. The effects on wildlife of loss of habitat vary, but for less mobile species with special habitat requirements, this can result in local extinction. More mobile species have special habitat requirements at certain stages of their life cycles, for example, the loss of breeding habitats could have serious long-term consequences for particular species. Habitats special to the District, and which are now poorly represented as natural ecological areas, include: • Taraire-puriri broadleaf forest remnants found on the basalt soils; • Mineralised flax, raupo and sedge swamps; • Acid peat bogs; • Podsol gumlands; • Lowland kahikatea/cabbage tree and swamp forest remnants; • Coastal forests and shrub lands; • Kauri and Podocarpus (rimu, matai, kahikatea, miro, kaiwaka, tanekaha forests); All of these habitat types have been severely reduced in area, or are highly modified and now often only occur as tiny modified relics of what once occurred in the District.
