People with Lived Experience (PLE) Participation Chapter: Priority Actions Feedback

In 2016, the Department of Health tasked PHNs with commissioning mental health, suicide prevention and alcohol and other drug treatment services. The development of a regional plan is central to the process, aiming to identify service needs and gaps, reduce duplication, remove inefficiencies and encourage innovation within the North Brisbane and Moreton Bay regions. The goal is to create a shared plan about what we will all do to improve service responses, and outcomes for consumers.

The regional plan will consist of a series of chapters (or 2 year action plans) representing the various streams of activity within the overall areas of mental health, suicide prevention and alcohol and other drugs.

The PHN has asked the Peer Participation in Mental Health Service (PPIMS) network to develop a Consumer and Carer Participation Chapter.

A summary of engagement and participation activities for developing this draft Consumer and Carer Chapter is below:
February Blue Sky Dreaming Peer Symposia (Attachments and data document pg 23-34)
March Peer Delegates Working Group & representation at PHN March Symposia (Attachments and data document pg 35-37)
April Peer Workshop on Alcohol and other Drug issues from a C&C perspective (Attachments and data document pg 38-40)
May Measuring Performance: How do we measure recovery and experience Peer Symposia (Attachments and data document pg 41-50) & survey of Network members about how the regional planning process is going in terms of C&C awareness and participation in the planning. (Attachment and data documents pg 51-53)

July Priority Actions for plan across promoting, recruiting/training, ongoing support and employment/participation (Attachments and data document pg 55-64).

The focus of this survey is to consider and provide comment on the ‘proposed priority actions’ to increase PLE participation in Mental Health Services in the region. Please review the 'People with a lived experience regional plan chapter working document' and complete the following survey to provide feedback by 13 November 2017.
