Influencing health policy: nurses can play an effective part in influencing health policy, if they develop the necessary skills and the confidence to use them.
Integrated personal commissioning, innovate stage, 1pm, 3 september 2015NHS England
Expo is the most significant annual health and social care event in the calendar, uniting more NHS and care leaders, commissioners, clinicians, voluntary sector partners, innovators and media than any other health and care event.
Expo 15 returned to Manchester and was hosted once again by NHS England. Around 5000 people a day from health and care, the voluntary sector, local government, and industry joined together at Manchester Central Convention Centre for two packed days of speakers, workshops, exhibitions and professional development.
This year, Expo was more relevant and engaging than ever before, happening within the first 100 days of the new Government, and almost 12 months after the publication of the NHS Five Year Forward View. It was also a great opportunity to check on and learn from the progress of Greater Manchester as the area prepares to take over a £6 billion devolved health and social care budget, pledging to integrate hospital, community, primary and social care and vastly improve health and well-being.

Hear from leaders from the private, public, and nonprofit sectors who are amplifying and evangelizing proven practices for public sector innovation. Learn how a collective movement is co-creating a better government that delivers better results at lower cost For the People, by the people.
Social prescribing is an intervention that aims to address patients' non-clinical needs by connecting them with local community services and activities like arts, leisure, learning, or volunteering groups. It has shown positive mental, emotional, and social benefits. The advantages include reduced need for clinical care, increased patient autonomy, and acknowledgment of socioeconomic factors impacting health. The US model incorporates a social prescribing coordinator and volunteers to guide patients to alternative services and support individual needs. UK clinicians agree patients' social needs are as important as medical conditions, and social prescribing could help address unmet resource needs in primary care.
This document discusses building a sustainable health information infrastructure in Ireland. It outlines three key principles: being patient-centered by empowering patients with information; being integrated to eliminate duplication and fragmentation; and being standards-based to efficiently share information. The Health Information and Quality Authority aims to improve healthcare quality and safety by developing standards, identifying gaps, and publishing performance reports. Challenges include integrating the currently fragmented systems and ensuring benefits are realized. Leadership over the long term is critical to successfully implementing eHealth strategies based on these principles.
Developing non-clinical approaches and are pathways to fundamental socioeconomic issues that are presented in the primary care and secondary care settings
The 2015 challenge manifesto sets out what we believe are the essential components of a new health and care system and how they might look and be experienced by people using and working in health and care, and the wider public. It also sets out some shared ‘asks’ of politicians and policymakers that are essential to achieve this vision.

Six principles for engaging people and communitiesJeremy Taylor
Slides presented at King's Fund on 1 November 2016. How to make real the vision in the Five Year Forward View of "a new relationship with patients and communities"? We know a lot about the "what" and the "who" of implementation. But the "how" is still a mess. What high impact actions would make a difference to driving this agenda? I offer some thoughts. These slides are not entirely self-explanatory without the accompanying talk. Please feel free to get in touch to explore further!
The US health care system is characterized by high technology and research but also lacks standardization and coordination. It employs millions of professionals across thousands of facilities but access remains unequal and costs are rising faster than economic growth. The system has evolved from early traditions of home care provided by women and religious healers to the current complex arrangement involving private insurers, employers, and government programs. Ongoing debates center around whether health care should be viewed primarily as an economic good or a social right.
Primary health care is the first level of contact between individuals and the health system, providing essential care for common health problems. It aims to provide universally accessible care that is scientifically sound, socially appropriate, and prioritizes those most in need. Evidence shows primary care-oriented systems lead to better health outcomes, lower costs, and greater equity. The document proposes a holistic ecosystem approach that incorporates contributions from all stakeholders to make primary health care centers more attractive and effective in underserved rural areas. It suggests training local students and providing incentives to work in these areas, as well as leveraging technology and public-private partnerships to expand access to primary care.
This document discusses trends and expectations for general practice and primary care in New Zealand towards the year 2030. It outlines that patients will expect quality, convenient, affordable and integrated care from competent professionals. There will be a focus on patient-centeredness, with information systems that communicate clinical information securely between providers and allow patients to access their own records. The future of primary care will rely on strong clinical leadership within a system that is primary care-led and flexible to meet local needs.
This document summarizes a study evaluating the implementation of an integrated care policy called Partners in Recovery (PIR) for people with severe and complex mental illness in Western Sydney, Australia. PIR aims to improve coordination of clinical and other support services for these individuals. The study is prospectively evaluating PIR's impact on individual recovery outcomes, service delivery processes, and system integration over three years. Preliminary findings after the first year will describe any indications of improved system integration found so far and factors facilitating or impeding the integration process. The study setting presents challenges as the target population and their needs were previously unknown, requiring discovery during implementation. However, this practice-based enactment also allows for positive innovation and regional variation in services.
The document summarizes several HIV/AIDS programs implemented by World Vision across multiple countries in Africa. It discusses key strategies used such as community mobilization, capacity building, and task shifting.

Results showed improved access to services, increased testing and treatment adherence, and reduced loss to follow up. Lessons highlighted the importance of integrated service delivery, community ownership, and long-term commitment to sustain programs.

Community health systems strengthening in Petit-Goave, Haiti_SankarCORE Group
This document outlines objectives and lessons learned from a community health systems strengthening project in Petit-Goave, Haiti. The project worked to expand access to maternal and child health services through partnerships with the Ministry of Health, local NGOs, and faith-based organizations. Traditional birth attendants were trained and community health workers engaged to link communities with formal health services. While the project achieved positive outcomes like a network of trained community providers, challenges included sustainability and true community engagement. Key learnings included the need for long-term health system support, innovative community health worker models, and greater involvement of all stakeholders.
The current healthcare system separates physical, mental, and chemical dependency services, focuses on volume over quality, and costs are rising without improved outcomes. A better system would integrate services, emphasize coordinated and high-quality care over service volume, and reduce costs through effective services. The Healthier Washington initiative aims to build this better system through measures like accountable communities of health that bring together regional stakeholders, integrating physical and behavioral healthcare, and using data and payment reforms to incentivize value-based care focused on the whole person. The ultimate goals are better health, better care, and lower costs for Washington residents.
The document summarizes discussions from Round Table 4 on enhancing consideration of workers' health in non-health policies. Key questions discussed include how to strengthen intersectoral collaboration on workers' health, how to design and link national workers' health profiles and action plans to primary care, the benefits of strategic health impact assessments, and actions to include workers' health in other policies. Suggestions focused on stakeholder analysis, education, legal frameworks, local solutions, data collection, and addressing knowledge gaps.
1. PHE has been developing strategies over the last 6 months for public and patient involvement (PPI) and engagement with the voluntary and community sector (VCS) based on feedback.

Developing a working relationship: embracing the prevention agenda and integrated care - presentation at the Faculty of Public Health annual conference 2016
This document discusses the key concepts of community health nursing. It defines community health nursing as a synthesis of nursing knowledge and public health science and practice that uses nursing processes to promote population health. The main tenets of community health nursing are comprehensive population assessment, partnership, primary prevention, health promotion, outreach, concern for overall population health, and interdisciplinary collaboration. The document outlines the standards of care and performance for community health nursing and lists attributes such as population focus, health orientation, autonomy, creativity, continuity, collaboration, intimacy and variability. Finally, it identifies common roles of community health nurses including caregiver, educator, counselor, and roles oriented toward clients, care delivery, and populations.
This document summarizes a presentation on integrated care and support given by representatives from NHS England and ADASS. It discusses the context of integration between health and social care services, identifies three "wicked issues" challenges to integration, and outlines next steps. Graphs and figures are included showing relationships between long-term conditions, costs of care, and the potential impact and cost savings of integrated models of care. The presentation addresses definitions of integration, evidence challenges, barriers such as information governance, and emphasizes the importance of person-centered coordinated care and building the capacity of patients to engage in self-management.
Frontline Health Workers_Mary Beth PowersCORE Group
Frontline health workers are the first point of contact for medical care for millions living beyond the reach of hospitals and clinics, including community health workers, midwives, local pharmacists, and some doctors and nurses. Investing in frontline health workers is the most cost-effective way to save lives, accelerate progress on global health threats, and advance US interests. The Frontline Health Workers Coalition is asking the US administration to develop a strategy to train, equip, and support new frontline health workers to address the global shortage and strengthen support for existing workers. They request help from influencers to advocate with policymakers and raise awareness on this important issue.
This document discusses health professional associations and how they balance professional and business objectives through strategic communication. It identifies the main functions of medical associations, which include advocating for members, communicating scientific knowledge, and marketing services to members. The document also stresses the importance of strategic communication planning and using various communication tools and channels to achieve organizational goals.
Integrated care seeks to address fragmentation in health and social care systems that allows individuals to "fall through the gaps" in care. It is centered around the needs of patients, especially those with complex, long-term conditions like frail older people, people with chronic diseases, and people with mental health issues. Examples provided illustrate integrated care achieved through multi-disciplinary teams, pooled budgets, and coordination of services across primary, community and hospital settings to better meet patient needs.

This document discusses two classmates' threads on healthcare policy and political advocacy. The first classmate discusses their experience working in NICU and PICU and interest in healthcare policy cases. They note some discomfort advocating outside their specialty areas. Their goals are to get involved in decision making at their hospital and familiarize themselves with their unit's policies.
The second classmate discusses their experience in the military healthcare system creating policies. They feel comfortable advocating in the military system but not civilian. They believe nurses should advocate for patients' rights per the Code of Ethics. Their goals are to educate themselves on their current position and communicate with leaders to recommend policy changes. The document provides references and instructions to reply considering similarities and differences
- Nurses need to become more politically active and involved in advocating for policies that impact their profession. Individual action is not enough - nurses must work together in groups and networks to effectively influence policymakers.
- Strategies for impacting health policy include educating oneself about the political process, working in coalitions with like-minded groups, focusing advocacy efforts on how policies impact patient health, and leveraging existing relationships to gain support.
- Sustainable policy change requires ongoing advocacy efforts over time rather than one-time reactions; nurses should commit to continued engagement in the political process.
This document discusses the role of nurses and nurse practitioners in policy making. It outlines two opportunities for nurses to participate in policy making: 1) Becoming a member of the American Nurses Association which provides resources for involvement. 2) Advancing their education to become a nurse practitioner which prepares them to advocate for healthcare policy. The document also recommends two strategies for promoting nursing involvement in policy making: 1) Creating a policy committee through their hospital organization. 2) Educating nursing students on healthcare policy to increase future involvement. Challenges include pushback from legislators and finding evidence to support policies, which nursing organizations can help overcome.

The document discusses the opportunities and challenges of digital transformation in the health sector. It states that transformation is fundamentally a cultural change where technology provides tools to improve healthcare outcomes. While the role of doctors will change with new technologies, they are unlikely to be replaced. For health systems to successfully adopt digital tools, organizations need capabilities in their workforce, an understanding of customer needs, and courage to change practices. Key drivers of digital health include rising healthcare costs of aging populations and a shift towards preventative care models over the traditional treatment of sickness.
NTI2010 Policy Politics And You Act With IntentionTodd_Grivetti
The document discusses the four spheres of political action in nursing: the workplace, government, professional organizations, and community. It provides examples of how nurses can get involved in policy and advocacy efforts within each of these spheres, such as by influencing workplace policies, engaging with legislators, participating in professional associations like ANA and AACN, and addressing community health needs. The document also outlines some of the policy priorities and advocacy activities of nursing organizations like AACN and AONE.

Sample Report on International Healthcare policy By Global Assignment HelpAmelia Jones
Sample Report on International Healthcare policy By Global Assignment Help.This report is prepared to analyze the formation of healthcare policy in an international context and discussed contemporary issues in International Healthcare policy.
Nurses have two main opportunities to participate in policymaking. First, they can leverage their knowledge of social determinants of health to inform policy as expert sources. Second, as the largest healthcare profession, nurses have a powerful voice that cannot be ignored in civic engagement and policymaking. However, these opportunities face challenges, as nurses represent only one perspective among many stakeholders, and may not always agree among themselves. To overcome this, nurses can conduct policy dialogues to reach consensus and build advocacy capacity to effectively propose policy changes based on their knowledge.

The document discusses the nature of public policy and the policy process in the Philippines. It defines public policy as the government's attempt to address public issues through laws, regulations, and actions. The public policy process in the Philippines involves several stages: agenda setting, formulation, adoption, formalization, implementation, and evaluation. Key institutions involved include Congress, the executive branch, and local governments. The Philippine Development Plan for 2017-2022 aims for inclusive growth through three pillars: regaining public trust, increasing opportunities, and sustainable economic growth. Recommendations include making the policy process more innovative and inclusive.
There are nearly 5 million nurses in the US who have opportunities to participate in policy making. Nurses can influence policies through their workplace leaders and by getting involved with professional organizations. Some challenges to nurse participation in policy making include lack of updates from leaders and high membership fees. Strategies to address these challenges include streamlining registration processes, providing trainings for nurses, and exercising strong healthcare leadership. This would help nurses get involved in decision making and help address issues like burnout and staffing shortages.

The Use Of Electronic Health Records ( Ehr ) Aims At...Ebony Bates
The document discusses electronic health records (EHR), including their purpose of improving patient care quality and safety by providing comprehensive medical histories. EHRs can track patient data over time to monitor parameters like vital sign trends or vaccination history. Their adoption has increased as providers can now access more complete patient information digitally. The purpose of the paper is to explore EHR mandates by examining who initiated them, when, and their objectives of connecting EHRs to improved healthcare access and costs under the Affordable Care Act.
- The document summarizes an equalities screening record form for a new Joint Commissioning Strategy for Assistive Technology from 2012-2017.
- The strategy aims to maximize the opportunities of assistive technology to support independence and choice for individuals who receive social care and health support services.
- An equalities impact assessment found the strategy would have generally positive or neutral impacts on people with protected characteristics. While it may particularly benefit groups like older people and those with disabilities, the assessment found no evidence of adverse differential impacts on equality groups.
Global launch: Delivering prevention in an ageing worldILC- UK
It’s never too late to prevent ill health. And the health and economic costs of failing to invest in preventative interventions across the life course are simply too high to ignore.
At this event, we launched two new reports on what works in delivering a preventative approach to health in an ageing world; how we can improve take-up and adherence to preventative interventions; what we have learned from COVID-19; and how policymakers across the world need to act to ensure prevention becomes a priority as countries build back from the damage inflicted by the pandemic.
We were joined by a panel of experts from across the world to discuss the findings and what needs to happen next so we can move from consensus to action on prevention.
Prudent healthcare and patient activation (1)Andrew Rix
The document discusses patient activation, which refers to empowering patients to take greater control of their health. It finds that activated patients who are informed and able to make healthy choices tend to have better health outcomes and lower healthcare costs. Interventions like education programs and community support can increase patient activation levels. The Patient Activation Measure is presented as a tool to measure a patient's knowledge, skills, and confidence in managing their health across different conditions. The document argues that whole-system approaches are needed to successfully promote patient activation, and that further studies could explore applying activation principles to planned care services in Wales.

in influencing health policy, if they develop the necessary
skills and the confidence to use them.
Hearth policy is for ever changing as new systems are developed, new facilities are commissioned
and new technology is introduced.
Nurses have a responsibility to become politically aware and be involved in all levels of policy
development, whether at an organisational level, developing operational policies for services, or in
response to nationwide policy changes that wilt affect the health and well-being of New Zealanders.
Nurses need to be actively involved and play a strong and constructive role in the development and
changes in health and disability policy.
Health policy affects the daily working Lives of nurses and of the people they care for and nurses
need to be at the decision-making table to make sure policy enhances good health care. (1)
To influence policy, nurses need to move from being reactive to policy changes to having a planned,
strategic approach. Being strategic requires a good understanding of the issues, knowing who to
influence, how to influence and the appropriate timing to initiate Lobbying the right people.
There are many barriers to nurses becoming politically active. Nurses are busy people; they don't
just have nursing career responsibilities but aLso juggle the responsibilities of family, homes,
children and/or elderly parents. Time for political activities is Limited and for some nurses this may
not be an activity they can give a great deal of time to. However, inactivity may result in the nurse's
practice being changed in a way that is not in the best interest of the nurse or the health consumer.
Being politically aware does not require each individual nurse to always take the initiative; it
requires a network that advises nurses when issues need a response and Leadership to drive a
strategic, timely response. (2) NZNO provides this information through its website, Kai Tiaki
Nursing New Zealand and industrial and professional advisers. The challenge is to know how to
make an appropriate response to political change at the right time.
Nurses often need to form strategic alliances with other organisations with similar interests and
issues. These alliances provide a coordinated and united approach that can have more impact than
each organisation acting individually and give nurses a stronger voice. (2)
Nurses need to be aware of how the political process works in order to influence new legislation and
changes in Legislation. Developing new Legislation is a Lengthy process and there are strategic
points where it can be challenged. One of the most important points for challenging and changing
the direction of Legislation is when a Bill goes out for consultation. (3) Nurses need to take
advantage of the consultation process that precedes a Bill being passed into law. This provides an
opportunity to influence the direction of health and social policy.
Nurses should not assume legislators or the health sector will automatically consult them or
consider the impacts of Legislative changes on nursing practice and consumers.
2. Nurses are frequently aware of the issues affecting health consumers. They are aLso in a good
position to have an influence in situations where changes to legislation will affect consumers' access
to health care.
To influence policy nurses need to keep abreast of possible policy changes, whether at a Local or
national level. This involves being in positions where they are consulted on changes in policy or
being proactive and watching for pending issues. This can be through keeping up to date on political
issues, reading news items, watching health and select committee websites for consultation papers,
and becoming respected in political circles as people who can provide an informed comment on
issues.
The media provides a powerful way to communicate on health policy issues and nurses need to
become confident at using this form of communication. For too long, nurses have relied on others to
speak for them in media forums. We need more nurses who can speak on nursing and health issues
and who become respected spokespersons.
The challenge is to change our approach to policy issues, take each issue as an opportunity to be
heard, and take action. You can make a difference and influence health policy. (4)
Every time you catch yourself thinking "someone should do something about that", why not change
your approach to "I will do something about it"?
Health policy workshops
NZNO has developed Learning modules on influencing health policy to be run as one-day workshops
in Wellington, Auckland and Christchurch next month:
* October 7--Auckland
* October 14--Christchurch
* October 21--Wellington
These workshops aim to increase nurses' understanding of why policies are made, how they are
formed and changed at both an organisational and government level, and encourage nurses to
engage in influencing policy makers. The workshops took at choosing the right time to influence
policy, planning the strategy, getting the key messages across, selecting the right tool for getting
maximum impact and getting involved. (3)
The workshops will be interactive, using questions and scenarios, and participants will have an
opportunity to develop different ways of Looking at and influencing policy.
If you are interested in attending one of these workshops, please email Betty Ng on bettyn@
nzno.org.nz. For further details, see last month's Kai Tiaki Nursing New Zealand, p10.
