Transitional Steering Group (TSG)
The role of this group is to assist MDHB create and maintain a clinical network structure ensuring that clinicians and consumers (and their family/whanau) are the core of health service development and improvement.
Progress to Date
Work to date for the TSG has focused on finalising the child health district group terms of reference and the nomination and selection process used to establish this group. These documents and systems will be the template for the subsequent district groups yet to come. The TSG has also been busy creating and signing off its own terms of reference and finalising a communications plan.
The regular Clinical Network newsletters have more information about group progress and future developments.
Membership
Members include: former DMG and Reference Group Chairs, Clinical Leads for the PHO ‘Better Sooner More Convenient’ business case, and senior managers from the DHB and Compass Health. There is also representation from Manawhenua Hauora and Maori health. It is also planned that there will be community involvement.
Once the network structure is more fully in place the TSG will dissolve with a move toward establishing the longer term Combined Steering Group. Membership will be reviewed at this point.
