A poster showcasing a project to tailor health delivery around patients’ goals won recognition among the health community at the Health Informatics New Zealand (HiNZ) conference in October.

The poster highlights how the soon-to-be-launched Personalised Care Plan (PCP) will support patients to achieve goals that matter most to them.

It was accompanied by a presentation from the CCN Collaborative Care Team’s Rebecca Muir and Donna Hahn, who emphasised how the plan supports Canterbury Health System’s aim to provide the right care, in the right place, at the right time.

Rebecca, Collaborative Care Liaison, said: “The entire suite of shared care plans, which support improved collaboration and integration across Canterbury, have been a real team effort from partners across Canterbury. We’re really proud that this accolade means we can launch the latest plan in this suite with the recognition and support of the national health community.”

Donna, Clinical Liaison, said: “It was a great surprise to be named winner of the category, especially with such fierce competition. This is great recognition for everyone who has been involved in implementing and using the full suite of shared care plans across Canterbury, in a bid to make sure care in focused on how we can work collaboratively to improve the patient experience.”
