Creating the space for recovery

Challenges
Back to basics
• A commissioner can be lots of things:
– a change agent, a catalyst, a leader, a broker, a pivot, a linchpin, an
enabler, an architect, a politician, a fixer
– Or: a nuisance, a martinet, a petty bureaucrat, a frustrated service
provider, a pushover, an ATM
• Commissioners are few in number and dedicated substance misuse
commissioners are increasingly rare.
• Commissioning is directing resources wisely and generating a culture of
improvement and change.
• Commissioning is a great responsibility, full of potential and
possibilities. Poor commissioning wastes resources and creates
disharmony
Here and now
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Increased competition for resources
Commissioners must be pro-active around system change
Substance misuse sector must evolve or will start to wither
Integration, not disintegration. Systems not lots
Providers must develop products and solutions
Engage and mobilise the recovery community
Must focus on outcomes
The need for flexibility.
