Learning from implementation

Clear direction

Motivation

Demonstrable results

Delivery capability

Organisation and Structure

Where to next?

How to:

- manage the midlife crisis?

Content

1. Context and Genio’s strategy

2. Learning in the context of the

implementation framework

3. Learning on scaling up

GENIOSupports cost-effective, social innovation

focused on providing opportunities for

people who are marginalised to be self-

determined and to live full lives in their own

communities

Supports policy implementation across:

• Disability

• Mental health

• Dementia

Policy coherence

• Disability, mental health and dementia

• Full expression of Citizenship - full lives

• Live in your own home

• Participating fully – being included

• Meaningful activity

• Self-determined

• Valued person

• Effective and efficient use of resources

Personalised supports and services• consider the wider needs and potential contributions of the

person, moving away from a focus on deficits;

• a response to one person rather than group-based;

• chosen by the person/family (with support as appropriate)

• delivered in the community fostering inclusion and

participation;

• inclusive of family and community supports and mainstream

services;

• reliant on paid professionals only when appropriate;

• cost-effective and represent good value for money.

Current model of provision• Cost of delivering services is high and even with

efficiencies will remain high

• Increasing demographic pressures cannot be met

within current model

• Resources not allocated according to need or

linked to outcomes

• Achievement of personal outcomes not compatible

with service delivered in group setting

Features of successful implementation

Multi-level leadership More than housing

The person leads the

process

Community links

Involving families and allies Start small and ‘model’

change

Engaging and consulting

with stakeholders

Challenge of

reconfiguration

Staff skills and training This takes time

Readiness Focus on outcomes –

monitor progress

STAGES OF IMPLEMENTATION

1. Exploring & preparing

2. Planning & resourcing

3. Implementing & operationalising

4. Business as usual

1. Exploring and preparation

• Multi-level leadership

• The person leads the process

• Involving families and allies

• Engaging and consulting with others

• Readiness

• Supportive tools

• Strategic partnerships

LEADERSHIP – MULTI-LEVEL AND SHARED

CEO, Board, Senior HSE etc.

Senior managers

Front-line staff

People using services and families

Person leads the process

Usual service delivery Supported Self-Directed

living

Person as passive recipient Person as self-determined

(with support if needed)

No control over service delivery Involved in design of supports

and services

Wraparound services

promoting dependency

Tailored and targeted supports

promoting Self-Directed Living

Person viewed as dependent

with ‘list of deficits’ to be

addressed

Person as citizen with abilities,

interests and contributions

Consultation and engagement

• Involve families and allies individually, in a

timely and respectful way

• Engage with stakeholders on the basis that

‘no-one has a veto’

• Needs to be thoughtful and tailored to the

desired outcome

Readiness

Organisation:

• Assess organisational readiness

• Tools such as logic modelling to get clarity on

outcomes and actions that lead to them

Individual:

• Need to challenge the concept of ‘readiness’

• Methods for assessing readiness based on person

in an artificial setting

2. Planning and resourcing

Start small and model change

• Peer-to-peer

• Staff

• Management – learning at manageable

Staff skills and training

• New way of working – new skill set and

new recruitment

3. Implementing and operationalising

• Need for simultaneous activities

• Intentional and incremental linking with the

community

• Challenge of reconfiguration

• This takes time! – but needs to be

observable progress

SIMULTANEOUS ACTIVITIES

Identifying accommodation

Supporting person to move and link with community and build relationships

Reconfigure the organisation to provide ongoing individualised supports

4. Business as usual

• Keep your eye on the prize!

• Focus on outcomes and monitor progress

• Incrementally move funds over to the new

The Challenge of Scaling

Rogers ‘Diffusion of Innovation’ curve

What do we mean by scaling?

Scale the reach of the model – numbers,

geography, % coverage etc.

• Expansion: same organisation gets bigger

• Replication: same model spread to different

organisations

• Collaboration: partnership between one or more

organisations

• Mandate: legislative support, national commitment

and funding

Issues to consider

• Scaling up is a task unto itself (complex

and multi-dimensional)

• Who is responsible for scaling up?

• Specific support needed for optimal scaling

• What are the incentives and levers for

change?

• How can we use them?
