Agenda: RFP 003
• General issues for health and aged care reform across all four Request for Proposals (RFPs)
• Issues specific to this RFP
• Access to video-recording of the sessionQ&A on HWA Aged Care Workforce Reform webpage
4
Request for Proposal (RFP) • You have expressed interest in HWA -ACR -RFP 003• General: all proposals required by 17 February - submit
completed template (Section 3 of RFP)• Information provision will continue via FAQ section on
website• Workforce focus; aged care irrespective of setting; not a
service design project• Themes: represent major pressures on system +
evidence for workforce change
5
General Health & Aged Care workforce issues• Strategy: use our current workforce more productively for more accessible
and responsive services; drive large scale adoption
• Overcome – Poor uptake of evidence ; not built on lessons of the past– Trying to put service evidence in place with rigid old workforce structures – Think differently about way we design and use workforce: paradigm shift– Single role workforce projects with limited scope to affect large scale change – Silos of action across boundaries – Disconnected / duplicated work across client journey– Not reorienting successfully to wellness, early intervention, primary health care
• Implement evidence of what works – CfOP project + jurisdictional initiatives + international evidence;- mostly known what we should be changing;
- barriers to how we mainstream change (policy: industrial, funding)
6
RFP: Implementation projectsBroad requirements:
•Work backwards from client needs (access & responsiveness)
•Comprehensive package of change (all workforce in theme) reflecting systems change
•Must be competency-based redesign of roles v. traditionally allocated work
– changes to workforce skill mix, configuration and deployment
•Focus on capacity of assistants & generalist staff to drive full scope of practice in other groups
•Internal - Partnering arrangement reflecting continuum of care
•External - Capacity building: leadership for change + knowledge management in your RFP group
7
Project managementFunding agreements: three-stage approach to implementing evidence of redesigned workforce models •Stage 1 – Setup: three to six months to set up the evidence based and agreed model for implementation and evaluation framework against set criteria in the RFP.
•Stage 2 – Implementation: implement and monitor the model for at least ten months.
•Stage 3 – Evaluation structured evaluation process that HWA will develop in partnership with the organisations for common and specific outputs and outcomes (will include use of Impact Assessment Framework, Investment Logic Standard ).

How do we expect you to work together?
Work closely with HWA via a variety of mechanisms to achieve optimal redesign and diffusion of knowledge Lead organisation for RFPs1-3: drive leadership for change, knowledge
management, challenge and innovation to push the boundaries, performance/ process/ data & sustainability
Internal partnering with your own stakeholders Attendance at up to three funded workshops for knowledge
management and to drive shared redesign / reform approaches in your RFP group
Capacity building - leadership for change and management development with HWA and partners
Demonstration of sustainability beyond funding ; determination of what is required for large scale adoption
9
Anticipated outcomes & evaluation Decreased pressure on system: avoidable Emergency Department
presentations or GP visits Population health : less episodes of deterioration or preventable
age related conditions Workforce productivity: whole net gains for greater number of
services for same or less cost Models of flexible workforce configuration (balance of
professional/ support staff); Workforce responsiveness: increased and continuous access to
supply of right services, first time; Workforce flexibility: models of workforce practice adaptable and
flexible to future change; Workforce supply: sustainability factors (measured for net cost
and cost effectiveness).
