Background

The purpose of the project is to:

� Meet the projected service demands of the ACT and Southern NSW

� Improve clinical and operational outcomes

� Improve operational efficiencies

� Align the CHWC with the Territory-wide Health Services Redesign

� Embed a culture of teaching, training and research into the delivery of

clinical services

5

We know current demand is growing

• Over 6,200 babies born in the ACT across multiple settings (public,

private and home-birth)

• In 2018, approximately 65% of public hospital births in the ACT were

at CHWC

• Population growth expected between 2018 and 2039 = 153,800

• Activity data shows significant increase in births over last ten years

• Growing demand for adolescent mental health inpatient services

• Patient needs are more complex due to changing demographics and

higher risk profiles

Distributed Model of Care for the ACT

Delivering the right care, in the right place, at the right time by the right people

7

Improved staff and patient outcomes

• New high quality and accessible health services – the project

increases the volume, range and quality of services offers

• Improvements to service delivery – creating a critical mass of

acute and tertiary services to allow health care professionals to

develop and maintain specialist care skills

• Improvements to patient experience – better co-location of more

services leads to better patient experience

• Improved staff training and education – modern teaching, training

and research facilities fully integrated with clinical care
