A Results Based Accountability (RBA) framework will be developed to assess
whether the Taranaki community population is ‘better off’ as a result of the
region’s suicide prevention and postvention strategy and plans. Taranaki DHB has
been working locally to include RBA in Kaupapa Māori contracts.
Two forms of accountability will be used to consider the effectiveness of the
region’s work and efforts in the area of suicide prevention and postvention.
1. Population accountability is about quality of life in a specific
population i.e. prevalence of suicide/self-harm in the community.
2. Performance accountability is about how well the services were
delivered, and whether they are making a difference to the people
who receive them.
RBA identifies the most important measures for each service that is delivered
and the results achieved. Performance accountability will be based on answers to
three questions:
1.
How much did we do? (Volumes)
2.
How well did we do it? (Effectiveness)
3.
Is anyone better off? (Outcomes and Impact)
The Suicide Prevention and Postvention Advisory Group has begun to identify a
suite of indicators (Appendix A) that provide the foundation for the RBA plan.
This will be refined and built upon as part of the RBA development process.

The Taranaki Suicide Prevention and Postvention Plan 2015- 2017 represents a
new approach to suicide prevention and postvention planning and delivery in the
region. The Plan will challenge some of the existing practices and operations and
will require greater leadership and resource commitment from across the
community. The Plan approach offers considerable potential to make a positive
difference and achieve the vision to eliminate suicide and self-harm in the region.
With this new approach there are risks that could thwart the progress of the
Plan.
As part of the Plan implementation, the Advisory Group have identified the need
to undertake a thorough assessment of risk.
Risks have been identified across the following areas:
•
Resources
•
Community
•
Service Delivery
•
Governance
•
Capacity and Capability
•
Communication
Appendix B presents the risks and the mitigation and prevention strategies that
have been identified by the Advisory Group as part of the Plan development
process. The Governance Group will continue to develop their approach to
managing risk.
