Details of service
HSE West and North West is responsible for the provision of all acute and community services across the 6 counties of Galway, Mayo, Roscommon, Sligo, Leitrim and Donegal and is operationally divided into 4 Integrated Health Areas (IHAs) – Galway Roscommon IHA, Mayo IHA, Sligo/Leitrim/West Cavan/South Donegal IHA and Donegal IHA. Each managed by an Integrated Health Area (IHA) Manager.
To support the delivery of high quality, consistent care, Networks of Care are being developed across the region which are multidisciplinary clinically led regional structures, which will provide leadership, set the strategy for the relevant clinical/care area, support quality, risk and safety structures/processes, and help support the regional leadership team in the assurance processes related to the relevant services.
The establishment of Networks of Care (NoC) across HSE West and North West, will support the sharing of clinical/specialty/programme expertise, strengthen the operational resilience, and ensure sustainable safe and quality services. Key components for the NoCs include:
• The provision of a regional wide clinical/care service under an integrated governance framework and providing the care group lens across the region/nationally.
• A standard system of governance; policies, audit meetings, quality assurance, incident reporting, incident management, risk management, oversight of regulation etc., across services in the Region.
• Risk stratification of patients to ensure that higher risk patients are dealt with at the most appropriate facility within the NoC.
• Quality assurance on the basis of one integrated service, although operating at different geographical sites; this will require data to be pooled across the NoC.
• A integrated approach to service delivery which ensures that each Integrated Health Area (IHA) delivers care appropriate to the resources, facilities and services available in that area.
• Accountable structures to support high quality education and clinical research, and active engagement with evolving regional academic structures.
An integrated approach to service delivery which ensures that each IHA in the Region delivers care appropriate to the population needs, resources, facilities and services available. The NoC will work closely with all stakeholders relevant to the Network.
Mayo Community Living is a community service which provides Residential Services to adults living with an Intellectual Disability.
