ThisAboriginal Health Plan is our future Blueprintwhere we work in collaboration with Aboriginalcommunities to achieve equitable outcomes forAboriginal people.The MNCLHD has established a Statement ofCommitment that pledges to ensure a respectful,accessible and safe health system for Aboriginalpeople on the Mid North Coast and shapes ourpriorities to achieve outcomes and improvehealthcare experiences for Aboriginal people.Through this plan we look forward to seeingstronger achievements and outcomes in AboriginalHealth across the Mid North Coast.David KennedyStewart DowrickOn behalf of the MNCLHD Governing BoardChief Executive – MNCLHDMid North Coast Local Health District acknowledgesAboriginal peoples as the First Nations of Australiaand the traditional owners and custodians of the land.We commit to applying the following principles ineverything we do:We also acknowledge and regret the wrongs ofhistorical policies and actions that negativelyimpacted Aboriginal peoples in the past and weacknowledge the continued impact on Aboriginalpeople in our communities.We recognise the cultural values and traditionsof Aboriginal communities. We value the uniquecontribution of our Aboriginal staff and all ourservices are culturally appropriate.By acknowledging past wrongs and workingtogether to build strong relationships, we hope tocreate a healthier, more respectful and effectivehealth service that provides for community needsand closes the gap between Aboriginal and nonAboriginal health and social outcomes.We recognise that sections of the Aboriginalcommunity experience poor healthcare outcomescompared to non-Aboriginal people and we strive to‘close the gap’.Every family and community has their own storyand we are committed to working together withAboriginal people and communities to ensure thatfuture stories are positive.We aim to: Create positive and honest relationships withAboriginal people in our communities whichfocus on improving health outcomes, with theunderstanding that this will lead to greaterquality of life for Aboriginal people.

Weinvolve Aboriginal people as early as possible inplanning, designing, implementing and evaluatingour services.Genuine PartnershipsWe plan, collaborate and work with our partners tomeet the needs of Aboriginal communities and weensure we complement and not duplicate servicesand programs.

All our leadersmodel cultural competence and are committed tochampioning the delivery of culturally safe servicesand work environments for Aboriginal people.45

Based on the 2016 Census, Mid North Coast is hometo 12,082 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanderpeople, or 5.7% of the total Mid North CoastIntroductionpopulation. This is an increase compared to the2011 Census.Table 1: Aboriginal Population of MNCLHD by Local Government Area, 2016The Mid North Coast Local Health District AboriginalHealth Plan (The Plan) replaces the Mid North CoastAboriginal Health Partnership Plan 2014-2018.The Plan has been developed with oversight by anAboriginal Health Plan Working Committee withmembership comprising representatives from LocalAboriginal Medical Services, North Coast PrimaryHealth Network, MNCLHD Governing Board, SeniorExecutive Team, MNCLHD Aboriginal Health Teamand Aboriginal Health staff.This commitment is articulated in the MNCLHDAboriginal Health Statement of Commitment, whichaims to ensure the MNCLHD continues to evolve asa culturally respectful, safe and secure Local HealthDistrict for Aboriginal people.Throughout 2018, all staff across the MNCLHDhave had opportunity to provide input regardingkey issues, challenges and opportunities for makinga difference in Aboriginal Health. The issues andchallenges submitted reflected the followingMNCLHD covers an area of 11,335 square kilometres,extending from the Port Macquarie Hastings LocalGovernment Area in the South to Coffs HarbourLocal Government Area in the North. The traditionalcustodians of the land covered by the MNCLHDare the Gumbaynggirr (from south of Grafton tojust south of Macksville), Dunghutti (from south ofMacksville to half way between Kempsey and PortMacquarie), Birpai (Port Macquarie-Hastings area),and Nganyaywana (south-east region of the Newthemes:England Tablelands) nations (Figure 1).

The 0-14-year age group accounted for 35.5% ofthe total Aboriginal population. Of the total 65 population for MNCLHD 1.3%were Aboriginal, significantly less than the nonAboriginal group.The demographic information suggests thatthe MNCLHD needs to invest in programs thatfocus on child and family services and youngerpeople, as well as prevention and management ofchronic disease across the life span to improve lifeexpectancy.Figure 2: MNCLHD Population by age ,Aboriginality and sexIn addition, in preparing for this plan we reviewedall the relevant data relating to Aboriginal healthneeds and performance of the Local Health Districtin terms of closing the gap initiatives. Thatinformation has informed the development of thisplan.BackgroundIn Australia, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanderpeople die at a much younger age than nonAboriginal people and during their lifetime are morelikely to experience poor physical and mental health.Urgent attention is required to close this gap in lifeexpectancy and health outcomes. This disadvantagestems from historic policies and actions whichremoved the rights and dignity of many first nationspeoples, as well as their traditional ways of livingand healing.MNCLHD is committed to improving the health ofAboriginal people and communities it serves andto improving the way in which health services aredelivered to Aboriginal people.%NonAboriginalFigure 1: The Traditional Custodians of Lands in theMNCLHD11Disclaimer: This map indicates only the general location of largergroupings of people, which may include smaller groups such asclans, dialects or individual languages in a group.

Population Health Outcomes and our PerformanceBased on Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) thathighlight the outcomes achieved in terms of‘Closing the Gap’, the following achievements andopportunities for further improvement are noted.The Aboriginal Health Plan will aim to buildOur achievements in closing the gap overtime include Reporting of Aboriginality has improved Continuing to reduce unplanned readmissionsto a level well below the rates for nonAboriginal people Improving community follow-up for mentalhealth patients within seven days followingdischarge from hospital Continuing to increase the rate of public dentalactivity Continuing to improve BreastScreenparticipation rates for Aboriginal women Immunisation rates at five years of ageincreasing Exceeding Respecting the Difference eLearningcompletion target well ahead of schedule Continued progress in smoking cessation insecond half of pregnancyon the achievements and ensure a focus on theopportunities for improvement. This informationhas been sourced from NSW Aboriginal HealthDashboard (2019) and Health Stats NSW.Main opportunities for improvement include Decreasing the rate of Aboriginal inpatientswho are discharged against advice Decreasing numbers of Aboriginal motherssmoking during pregnancy Increasing the Aboriginal workforce of the LHD Reducing numbers of low birth-weight babies Ensuring access to ante-natal care before 14weeks for Aboriginal women Rate of hospitalisation for Aboriginal peopleis higher than non-Aboriginal people across anumber of chronic illnessesPolicy ContextMNCLHD has a long-standing commitment toimproving health outcomes for Aboriginal people,with a focus on intensifying efforts to embed amulti-strategic and whole of organisation approachto closing the gap and meeting the health needs ofthe whole community.MNCLHD will continue to work in partnershipand collaboration with Aboriginal communitiesand Aboriginal Community-Controlled HealthOrganisations.MNCLHD recognises the strategic intent andpolicy directions of the NSW Aboriginal HealthPlan 2013-2023 (2012), which sets the strategicbackground for all NSW Local Health Districts todevelop local plans that address local issues andchallenges to achieve improvements in AboriginalHealth outcomes and ‘Close the Gap’.The MNCLHD Aboriginal Health Plan aligns withthe NSW Aboriginal Health Plan 2013-2023, alongwith a range of other district and state strategicdocuments, including: NSW 2021: A Plan to Make NSW Number One(2011) Respecting the Difference (Aboriginal CulturalTraining Framework) The NSW Aboriginal Health PartnershipAgreement Closing the Gap – 2018 Review and The NextPhase Refresh Cultural Respect Framework for Aboriginal andTorres Strait Islander Health 2016-2026 The National Partnership Agreement on Closingthe Gap in Indigenous Health Outcomes (Closingthe Gap) The National Partnership Agreement on Closingthe Gap 2019-2029 National Safety and Quality Health ServicesStandards MNCLHD Service Agreement with NSW Health MNCLHD Strategic Directions 2017-2021 MNCLHD Clinical Services Plan 2018-2022 MNCLHD Aboriginal Health Workforce Plan 20172020 MNCLHD Aboriginal Workforce Affirmative ActionStrategy Mid North Coast Aboriginal Health AuthorityAboriginal Cultural Safety and SecurityFramework, 2019

MNCLHD Aboriginal Health Plan – OverviewMNCLHD Aboriginal Health Strategy MapThe purpose of the MNCLHD Aboriginal HealthPlan is to set strategic directions to reduce the gapin health outcomes for Aboriginal people whencompared to non-Aboriginal people. It will guideall activities conducted within MNCLHD that mayimpact on Aboriginal people.Our Vision:Optimal health and wellbeing for Aboriginal people of the MidNorth CoastOur Purpose:To achieve our vision, we will deliver appropriate, effective andaccessible health services and information that meet the healthneeds of the Aboriginal population of the Mid North Coast inways that align with our Statement of CommitmentOur PrinciplesValuing Aboriginal Culture - Equity in Healthcare - HolisticApproaches - Real Community Engagement - GenuinePartnerships - Strong LeadershipOn the following page, our strategy map providesa high level summary of this plan. It includes ourvision, purpose and summary of the key principlesoutlined in the Mid North Coast Aboriginal HealthStatement of Commitment (see page 5 for fulldetails).In addition, the strategy map lays out the one corestrategy and six strategic directions that provide theframework for this plan. As can be seen in the map,the six strategic directions underpin and supportachievement of the core strategy, and together allcontribute to achievement of our purpose and vision.More detail on the core strategy and strategicdirections is provided on following pages, includingthe rationale and overarching measures of success,along with a table outlining focus areas and a setof strategic initiatives to be actioned over the fiveyears of the plan. These detailed sections alsooutline the senior MNCLHD personnel responsiblefor addressing the plan (leads and others with ashared responsibility), and specific KPIs and successmeasures applicable to each focus area within thatstrategy / strategic direction.As this plan is implemented, all staff involved willbe guided by the principles set out in the Statementof Commitment and summarised within the StrategyMap. In addition, and closely aligned to thoseprinciples, staff will, as always, adhere to our corevalues, summarised below. Further information onimplementation, monitoring and evaluation of theplan is available on page 26.The core strategy and each strategic direction hasan accompanying objective that describes in simpleterms what we aim to achieve in that area.MNCLHD ValuesOur values are a statement of the standards and behaviours we model in our work and how weinteract with our patients, our community and amongst ourselves. These values are consistentwith the CORE values of the NSW Health system.Collaboration – Improving health status and healthcare depends on everyone in the system workingas a team. In Aboriginal Health, this requires a commitment to partnership, Aboriginal empowerment,community autonomy and inter-sectoral collaboration.Openness – Transparent system improvement processes are essential to make sure that information isopen, relevant and available.Respect – The respect for and understanding of Aboriginal culture, history and people is fundamental toachieving better outcomes. We recognise the role of Aboriginal elders as leaders in the community. Wealso recognise that engaging Aboriginal organisations and community groups is integral to improvinghealth. We acknowledge and respect Aboriginal people as the traditional owners of the land.Empowerment – We must build trust on all sides and at all levels with Aboriginal people and thecommunity. In Aboriginal health, empowerment is fundamental to ‘Closing the Gap’, building communitycapacity, supporting Aboriginal community services and ensuring culturally competent models of care.In delivering on this plan, we will always apply these principlesCore Strategy: Providing services that improve the health and wellbeing ofAboriginal peopleObjective: The health of Aboriginal people in our region equals that of non-Aboriginal people.SD1:Building TrustThroughPartnershipsObjective:We have strongand effectivepartnerships withAboriginal people,communitiesand partnerorganisations andwork together todevelop priorities,plan, deliver andevaluate servicesSD2:SD3:ImplementingEnsuringwhat Works and Integrated ServiceBuilding EvidencePlanning originalWorkforceSD5:ProvidingCulturallyCompetent WorkEnvironment andHealth ServicesObjective:Objective:Our services areWe reduce gaps and We attract, developbased on evidence duplication of care,and sustain moreof what works andour services are ofAboriginal peoplewe contribute tohigh quality andworking acrosscontinually building ensure Aboriginalall sections of thethe evidencepeople are at theMNCLHDcentre of theirhealth care journeyAboriginalconsumers,communitiesand employeesalways experienceour servicesas welcoming,culturally safe andsecureSD6: Strengthen Performance Monitoring, Management and AccountabilityObjective: We are fully accountable for the services and outcomes we deliver to Aboriginal peopleand have effective ways of monitoring, managing and reporting1011
