Details of Service

Model of Care

The Model of Care used by the Workplace Health & Wellbeing Unit is to deliver services at local level and supported them with a central governance unit. The local services are delivered via a hub and spoke model,

The Model of Care is based on the following principles:

1. Prevention – to prevent ill health caused or exacerbated by work

2. Timely intervention – to enable accessible and early treatment for the main causes absence due to ill health

3. Rehabilitation – to help staff stay at work or accommodate their return to work after illness

4. Health Assessment - to help manage attendance, reasonable accommodation, ill health retirement and related matters

5. Promotion of health and well-being – using the workplace as a means to improve the health and general well-being of staff

6. Teaching and training – encouraging staff and managers to support the health and well-being of staff

In line with the Sláintecare Implementation Strategy and Action Plan 2021–2023 six Health Regions have been established within the HSE. Each region is responsible for providing both hospital and community care for the people in that area. Bringing community health services and hospitals together means we can take a more patient-centred approach to healthcare. The intent of the Sláintecare reform is to achieve a universal single-tier health and social care system, which provides equitable access to services based on need, and not ability to pay.

Health Regions will enable and empower staff to provide services that are:

• Integrated, locally planned and delivered

• Easier to access and navigate

• Available closer to home

The six health regions cover the following areas:

• HSE Dublin & North East

• HSE Dublin & Midlands

• HSE Dublin & South East

• HSE South West

• HSE Mid-West

• HSE West & North West
