1.0 INTRODUCTION Central Adelaide Local Health Network (CALHN) was established in July 2011. In keeping with the aim of greater involvement and leadership by clinicians, six clinical directorates were formed - Cancer, Critical Care, Surgery, Medicine, and Renal with Mental Health and Dental being added more recently. Each of these clinical directorates is developing a multiple sites model with appropriate governance and structures as outlined in Single Service, Multiple Sites Strategy (2012). The establishment of the Allied Health Directorate will consolidate existing Central Adelaide allied health departmental and teams structures into a single support directorate which will operate across all clinical directorates and strongly support clinical team development within the clinical directorates. For all allied health staff, the Allied Health Directorate will provide an essential professional link into the highest levels of the organisation. The leadership structure outlined in this document provides:

opportunities to develop allied health leadership across all levels of the organisation

opportunities for staff to move seamlessly across sites and services

clear professional leadership to ensure supervision arrangements are in place

a starting point for multidisciplinary team development, consistent with the clinical directorates.

Once the leadership changes have been enacted, consideration and consultation will occur to determine the make-up of clinical teams. This will create an allied health team structure that has strong links with the clinical directorates further enabling patient focussed, team based care. It is anticipated that this will occur throughout 2014. Significant work on allied health leadership structures was commenced during 2010-11 and this work has been re-examined and tested with current leaders in allied health, medicine, nursing and administration to inform this proposal. Critical consideration has been given to the clinical directorate structures and nursing leadership structures to provide points of intersection across the multi-disciplinary team. The future of health care delivery will be increasingly interprofessional and allied health must be in a position to participate and lead these teams.

contained within acute and sub-acute allied health discipline departments, and a range of other team-based care settings.

2.4 Allied health staff based in the Mental Health Directorate will have a professional reporting line via relevant Principle Leads into the Allied Health Directorate.

2.5 A Director of Allied Health Reform position will be created, reporting directly to the Executive Director Allied Health to provide leadership on key reform initiatives across Central Adelaide.

2.14 The Wellness Centre, based at the Royal Adelaide Hospital, is a portfolio responsibility of the Executive Director Allied Health and will have an important role in promoting the Arts in Health agenda in the new Royal Adelaide Hospital. The Manager of the Wellness Centre will maintain a direct report to the Executive Director Allied Health for six months at which stage the management will be provided by the Central Adelaide Director Occupational Therapy.

2.15 Hospital Chaplaincy will transition under the management of the Executive Director Allied Health with reporting lines to be confirmed following further consultation.

6.0 Governance Professional and operational matters for allied health will be managed in a number of ways: 6.1 Allied Health Executive Management Team (EMT)

Each Clinical Directorate in Central Adelaide is required to develop an EMT structure to bring together professional, operational and financial expertise in a transparent way. The EMT for the Allied Health Directorate will consist of:

Executive Director Allied Health

Director Allied Health Reform

Allied Health Discipline Directors

Manager Allied Health Business Support The Allied Health EMT will manage Central Adelaide Allied Health quality of care, operational planning and monitoring and can refer items to the Clinical Cabinet for broader consultation and advice as necessary.

7.0 CONSULTATION PROCESS Consultation Sessions with Staff across Central Adelaide Local Health Network Preliminary discussions in relation to the proposed establishment of the Central Adelaide Allied Health Directorate have taken place at a number of management forums across 2013 (29 April & 9 September). The purpose of the sessions was to bring together a broad group of Allied Health Leaders and Managers to discuss the concept of the Allied Health Directorate, to build on previous work regarding an Allied Health Directorate and to discuss the role and functions of the directorate. Classification of positions Approved new and changed structures will be reflected in appropriate and relevant role

descriptions. The duties and outcomes related to the role, as well as the requirements of a

person to perform each role should be clearly defined.

The classification assessment of new/changes positions will be conducted in accordance with the approved procedures for classifying positions, which requires approval by the appropriate delegate. The classification of positions will be in accordance with the work level definitions described within the South Australian Public Sector Wages Parity Enterprise Agreement: Salaried 2012.

Transition to the new Allied Health Structure Positions within the organisational structure will be filled in accordance with the Human Resources Principles and Procedures. The Human Resources Principles from the SA Health (Health Care Act) Human Resources Manual will be used. These will apply for the duration of the transition to the new structure.

In accordance with SA public sector unassigned employee policy, any unplaced ongoing employee will be provided with suitable work at his or her substantive remuneration level until placed in a suitable ongoing position.

It is recognised that the transition to the new Allied Health structure may increase anxiety and concerns for staff. We acknowledge the genuine concerns of staff and are committed to ensuring that staff are provided with appropriate support services, resources and information to reduce these concerns and to identify the opportunities that will arise during this change process.

Consultation Questions 1. How do you see the Allied Health Directorate operating along-side the Clinical

Directorates of Medical, Surgical, Critical Care, Cancer, Renal, Mental Health and Dental?

2. What are the opportunities in creating research, education and workforce development

capacity within the directorate? 3. How best should allied health ensure that we can continue to work effectively across

clinical areas (directorates) and across physical sites? What needs to be done to ensure that effective management and leadership are in place?

4. How can quality and safety functions be embedded in the new structure? Do they link

to the allied health directorate or more to the Clinical Directorates? 5. What needs to be done to clarify and explain the roles of Executive Director Allied

Health, Director Allied Health Reform, Clinical Directorate Allied Health Leads and Discipline Directors?

6. The changes and transitions pose potential risks for loss of corporate knowledge across

the whole health system. How can we best manage this in order to manage the day to day work and also embrace the innovation and reform agenda?

7. What support will the Discipline Directors need to work effectively across the Network? 8. What do we need to put in place in order to make the single service multiple site

concept work for allied health? 9. How do we learn from each other in the period of change and how do we build on the

successes to date? 10. How do we keep our colleagues (nursing, medical and allied health) informed of the

changes that are taking place and what measures would we use to judge effectiveness of the new arrangements?

11. How should other portfolio responsibilities (ATSI Health and Wellness Centre) report

though the proposed structure? 12. For services with a professional reporting line, are the distinctions clearly articulated

between what is an operational and what is a professional responsibility?
