Disability Support Services Cost Drivers • Reduction in natural supports • Greater expectations from disabled people and their families • Aging population • Impact of new Health and Safety legislation
Disability Support Services What can we do about it? • Review contracts to ensure value for money (efficient and effective services) • Review allocation processes to identify any growth of support functions (HM/PC for medication management, therapy) • Look for any duplication of funding (ASD) • Continue demonstrating new models to transform the system
Disability Support Services New Model Update • • Looking at extending the Choice in Community Living regions, focusing on clients wanting to move from residential care Ongoing evaluation of Local Area Coordination in BOP, Hutt and Southland/Otago Further development of the Supported Self Assessment as a more respectful way of identifying client needs Reviewing purchasing guidelines that support Enhanced Individualised Funding.
Disability Support Services Enabling Good Lives Update • • • Christchurch 3 year demonstration due to end June 16 – planning for how we continue to work in an EGL way post June Waikato are planning to work with up to 105 people this year. Systems and processes to work with this group now in place Implications for system transformation currently being assessed – need to incorporate findings from Chch evaluation and New Model work in thinking about the future.
Disability Support Services Summary • • We need to look at how to maximise disability support funding to get the best outcomes for clients To do this we will be reviewing a number of traditional supports to see if services can be delivered in a better way We will continue to learn from trialling new things and incorporate these learnings into system transformation We are keen to work with you as providers in this process of transforming the system.

Disability Support Services Culturally Responsive Services in the Disability Sector
Disability Support Services Outline • • • Definition – Culturally responsive practice Whāia Te Ao Mārama – Māori Disability Action Plan Let’s Get Real – Real Skills for People Working in Disability
Disability Support Services Culturally Responsive Practice • This means that integrating cultural considerations into every day practice becomes business as usual • Integration of culture into everyday practice implies that a person’s cultural identity is acknowledged as important and central to their wellbeing and world view • Therefore all people who are supporting disabled people should seek to gain a deeper understanding of that person’s heritage, their connections to family and extended whānau, land, rivers, mountain, sea and environment
Disability Support Services Whāia te Ao Mārama Priority 1: Improved outcomes for Māori disabled 1. 1 Require providers to ensure that personal plans to support Māori disabled are culturally appropriate and specifically identify and address the individual’s cultural needs (2012– 17) 1. 2 Provide a range of new and innovative support options for supporting disabled people that offer Māori disabled and their whānau more personalised support arrangements and greater choice and control over the supports they use (2013– 14)
Disability Support Services Whāia te Ao Mārama Priority 2: Better support for whānau 2. 1 Improve caregiver training to ensure whānau have access to culturally appropriate training to address the needs of Māori disabled (2013– 17) 2. 2 Develop the New Model for Supporting Disabled People to respond to whānau needs and priorities (2012– 13)
Disability Support Services Whāia te Ao Mārama Priority 3: Good partnerships with Māori 3. 1 Improve the quality, reliability and comparability of national information about the demographics of, and disability supports provided to, Māori disabled (2012– 17) 3. 2 Improve the quality of the community engagement process with Māori, particularly with hapū, iwi, and community leaders and groups (2012– 17)
Disability Support Services Whāia te Ao Mārama Priority 4: Responsive disability services for Māori 4. 1 Strengthen the cultural competencies of workers in the disability sector through the development and delivery of Māori cultural training (2012– 17) 4. 2 Support the Māori disability workforce to develop leadership skills and career pathways (2012– 17)

Disability Support Services Working with Māori • • Essential - Understand that disabled people and their whānau may wish to nominate a person to speak on their behalf, and support the involvement of nominated speakers Leader - Actively support systems, processes, policies and practice that reflect appropriate kaupapa for Māori e. g. karakia, mihi, pōwhiri for new staff
