Mental Health and Addiction: Day Programmes feedback sessions
KA TUKUNA MAI ŌU WHAKAARO – HAVE YOUR SAY.
Have you had personal lived experience of mental health challenges and/or addiction and taken part in a Day Programme?
Tēnā, kōrerotia mai ō wheako kia tutuki pai ai tēnei kaupapa rangatira.
We warmly invite you to join a feedback session to share your experiences with non-clinical Day Programmes.
What are day programmes?
Day Programmes provide activities and support living skills in a community-based setting.
Why your voice matters?
By sharing your experiences, you can help ensure that Day Programmes reflect the real needs and aspirations of tāngata whaiora (people seeking wellness) in our community. We invite you to share your experiences and insights to help shape the future of Day Programmes in the Southern District.
About this session
A facilitator with lived experience will guide the kōrero. This session is part of a wider review to understand how well Day Programmes align with the Southern Non-Clinical Day Programmes Model of Care. The Model was developed in 2023 using direct tāngata whaiora feedback regarding what they need and want. The model emphasises hope, choice, mana-enhancement, holistic wellbeing, dignity, participation, and connection.
Your insights will help to further refine Day Programmes to support tāngata whaiora across Otago and Southland.
