dc.description | The National Service Plan 2017 (NSP 2017) sets out the type and volume of health and personal social services to be provided by the Health Service Executive (HSE) including those of the National Ambulance Service (NAS) in 2017, within the funding available to the HSE. Underpinning the NSP 2017, this plan, ‘National Ambulance Service Operational Plan 2017’ enables implementation of NSP 2017 within the NAS. The NAS operational plan gives focus to more detailed type and volume of services, incorporating explicit links between funding, staffing, specific targets, clearly defined timescales in terms of implementation of actions and the goals of the HSE Corporate Plan 2015 – 2017. In line with the Health Information and Quality Authority (HIQA) requirement, the NAS has completed a strategic plan, ‘National Ambulance Service Vision 2020 Patient Centred Care 2016 – 2020’(Vision 2020). Through its implementation, the service will move towards a more multi-dimensional urgent and emergency care provision model which is safe and of the highest quality. This is in accordance with international trends, the desire to implement the recommendations of the various reviews1 into the service and the ultimate aim of improving patient outcomes whilst ensuring appropriate and targeted care delivery. Our strategic plan will build on evolving improvements to ensure that our staff have the skills, technology and information to support the delivery of a revised pre-hospital emergency care service. The NAS 2017 revenue budget is €155.0m which represents an increase of €3.6m or 2.4%. | en |
