The city of Darwin is one of the most vibrant and multi culturally diverse cities in Australia – it’s one of Australia’s best kept secrets! The city provides all the amenities to enjoy this tropical lifestyle including fishing, sailing, sport or just relaxing under a palm tree. National parks abound - a weekend in Kakadu, a trip to the Kimberley, camping out in Litchfield Park - it’s all at our doorstep. It is a vibrant growing community full of opportunities for both single people and families. Darwin’s close proximity to Asia enables easier and cost-effective access to popular holiday destinations such as Bali and Singapore for Darwin residents. The successful applicant will be eligible for registration with the Australian Health Practitioners Registration and a fellow with an Australian Medical College or equivalent. HardyGroup | IN CONFIDENCE 3 CANDIDATE INFORMATION PACK Director of Medical Services NT HEALTH VISION: To be a world leader in the delivery of remote health, through collaboration, excellence and innovation. PURPOSE: Working together to deliver better health for all Territorians, with healthy Territorians engaged and living in healthy communities. Northern Territory Health (NT Health) is at an important and exciting juncture with the launch of its new strategic plan that sets out an ambitious yet achievable set of priorities for the next five years. The plan aligns with the uniqueness of the Northern Territory’s geography and population and has six overarching aims: • Prevent illness • Focus on each person • Redesign to improve access • Lift performance towards excellence • Embed research • Systematise effectiveness and efficiency. The Northern Territory (NT) covers an area of some 1,349,129 square kilometres and is sparsely populated with approximately 228,800 people accounting for less than one per cent of the Australian population. Over 50 per cent of the population resides in Greater Darwin and approximately 27 per cent of the population are Aboriginal people. The population demographic group has a higher birth rate and a lower life expectancy, resulting in a considerably younger population age profile. Over half of the Aboriginal population in the NT live in remote areas, compared with eight per cent of the non- Aboriginal population. Over 43 per cent of the NT population reside in remote/very remote areas (22 per cent nationally); 70 per cent of this cohort who live remotely are Aboriginal and reside in one of 600 communities or remote outstations. Language and culture are diverse with over 200 languages spoken. The Top End Health Service (TEHS) is the largest healthcare provider in the Territory and has an integral role in the achievement of NT Health’s strategic priorities. It is a statutory body under the Northern Territory “Health Services Act 2014” with an annual operating budget over $950m and 4000 FTE. It delivers the following public health services across the Top End region including Darwin, Tiwi Island, East Arnhem and Katherine: • Hospital care through four hospitals – Royal Darwin (367 beds), Palmerston Regional Hospital (116 beds), Katherine District Hospital (60 beds), Gove District Hospital (30 beds) Alice Springs Hospital (183 beds) and Tennant Creek Hospital (20 beds). • 74 Primary Health Care Centres through remote and community primary health clinics • Mental Health • Alcohol and Other Drugs • Oral Health HardyGroup | IN CONFIDENCE 4 CANDIDATE INFORMATION PACK Director of Medical Services • Hearing Health • Cancer Screening. Primary healthcare is provided across a range of clinics and Primary Health Centres (74) and for Aboriginal communities in partnership with Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisations (ACCHOs). Other providers include a private hospital, a day surgery centre, and many non-government organisations. The NT Health has recently published it NT Health Strategic Directions 2018-2022 that responds to the Northern Territory’s geography and population. The plan sets out six overarching aims. The vast area covered by NT Health presents many challenges for service delivery. Social disadvantage is prevalent in many Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal communities in urban, rural and remote settings. Social disadvantage is associated with poorer health, resulting in many people in the NT with high healthcare needs. VALUES: Values underpin all activities, headlined by a vision that drives our ambition to deliver a world class service in a remote location. To strive towards this vision by working together as one system, to deliver better health for all Territorians. We will work together to create an open, fair and just culture where we value: • Diversity: Ensure the person with a health care need is at the centre of culturally safe practice, free from racism and discrimination. • Ethical Practice: Demonstrate ethical practice, a commitment to social justice and equality, working with integrity and being accountable for our decisions and actions. • Respect: Be respectful and compassionate when working together and with others. • Courage: Be courageous and brave in our leadership. HardyGroup | IN CONFIDENCE 5 CANDIDATE INFORMATION PACK Director of Medical Services STRATEGIC DIRECTIONS A: Prevent illness: To invest in and deliver health promotion across the lifespan, initially targeting reduction in at risk behaviours. B: Focus on each person: To create innovative and evidenced based models of health service delivery that deliver excellent patient experiences and improved outcomes in the context of the many unique challenges for service delivery in the NT. C: Redesign to improve access: To reduce service duplication, engaging with and using technology, and deliver services closer to home, through harnessing the power of partnerships. D: Lift performance towards excellence: Create a reputation for being a workplace and environment where people want to come to work, live and learn. E: Embed research: Our systems of delivery are effective and evidence based. F: Systematise effectiveness and efficiency: Through effective systems pursue organisational excellence in all that we do. The NT Health’s Strategic Directions 2018-2022 provides the overarching corporate framework for planning for healthcare in the Northern Territory. The Plan sets out NT Health’s Commitments and Strategic Directions that guide all individuals and groups working to improve the health and wellbeing of Territorians. Organisational priorities are established with this framework and performance indicators and reporting requirements are set.
