Benchmarking Breakout: Addressing Wait times through partnership and flexible solutions – the Haumanu Specialist Clinical Service

Real, a mental health NGO, developed the Haumanu Specialist Clinical Service, with the aim of being flexible and responsive to need through a fee-for-service model.  Haumanu partners with the Capital Coast, Hutt Valley, and Wairarapa Infant, Child, and Adolescent Mental Health Service (ICAMHS) to innovate and reduce wait times. Haumanu offers specialist intervention for taiohi me ngā whānau who have experienced trauma and mental health needs.  Based at Salmond House in Te Whanganui-a-Tara Wellington, the Haumanu team also offers clinical support virtually across the mōtu.

Facilitated by:

  • Miriam Swanson – Child and Youth Director at Pathways/Real
  • Meg Driver – Team Coach at Pathways
  • Andrea Broadhurst – Team Leader Capital and Coast District ICAMHS
