Equitable Access to Wellbeing - Specialist Dual Disability Services Hui (21 November 2024, Wellington)
Where: Wellington (Venue details will be provided later)
Date: Thursday 21 November 2024
Timing: 9:30 am to 5:00 pm on Thursday 21 November.
Format: As collaboration and networking are key components of the sessions, the hui will be conducted in person.
Why you should come along:
You are working in a highly pressured, but highly rewarding, environment, and you are feeling it. This event is something to look forward to – a chance to have fun, meet colleagues, and share a meal. You'll learn new skills from people with lived experience, and clinical leaders, reflect on how you can maintain your own wellbeing, and consider ways to standardise practice across services.
Agenda:
Whilst the individual sessions at this hui are being finalised with sector leaders, the aims of this hui are to:
- Dive into the Equitable Access to Wellbeing knowledge and skills framework (EAW), reflecting on how you and your organisation can use it to improve practice.
- Provide Professional Development sessions, presented by experts (both clinical and lived experience), on topics of value to the group.
- Challenge and inspire you to lead within your organisations and the sector.
- Provide a community for professionals where you can connect, collaborate, and share practical innovations.
- Reflect on workforce wellbeing. Discussing strategies to improve the sector’s health and combat burnout.
- Create an enjoyable event.
Who should attend?
This hui is designed for the workforces that support the mental health needs of people with learning disabilities (LD) and autistic people. While most attendees will have a clinical background and be registered health professionals, the Equitable Access to Wellbeing (EAW) framework is also relevant for the non-registered workforce supporting people with complex needs. Specifically:
- Clinical and non-clinical staff supporting the mental health needs of people with LD and autistic people
- Disability support service providers
- Regional Intellectual Disability Secure Services (RIDSS)
- National Intellectual Disability Secure Services (NIDSS)
- Forensic Intellectual Disability Secure Services (FIDSS)
