Organisational Effectiveness: Debates behind measurement issues in the Public Health Sector
No full textThis paper presents a discussion and exploration of influences into the development of performance measurements in the public sector. Such measures are subject to individual (rational decision-makers), managerial (goal congruent) and organisational (political philosophy) variations A case study (PHARMAC) is used by way of example to describe one organisation’s response to the complex relationships that exist within the public health sector. However, this paper does not attempt to describe or prescribe how public sector entities should behave. Rather, it is hoped to enable those responsible for developing public sector performance measures through an informed presentation of the influences on such actions.UnpublishedAbernethy, Margaret A. and Johannes U.

Contemporary cultures of service delivery to families : implications for music therapy
No full textFamily-centred and early intervention and prevention programs are a strong focus of current policy objectives within Australia, and a significant area of practice within the music therapy community. Recent shifts in the culture of policy and practice increasingly reflect ecological understandings by focussing on integrated and place-based approaches to service delivery. Further, current funding opportunities are strongly concerned with the extent to which interventions are able to reach out to highly vulnerable families that typically do not engage with services easily. Music therapy holds unique promise within these cultural shifts and thus advocates must develop a solid understanding of the concepts and related language in order to confidently engage with both funding and service systems. This paper uses an integrative review to first define and summarise current knowledge in three key areas relevant to contemporary Australian policy and practice: hard-to-reach families, home visiting as assertive outreach, and integrated or place-based service delivery. Evidence for the effectiveness of music therapy in relation to these key themes is then presented. Finally, the paper discusses the implications for the future of music therapy within the current Australian early intervention and prevention policy context and makes recommendations for moving forward on both practice and research fronts. While there is growing evidence and theory to suggest that music therapy may be uniquely efficacious in this area, greater\ud

MY DARK VANESSA, DE KATE ELIZABETH RUSSELL
