As outlined in previous sections of the plan, the four strategic priorities have actionable objectives with goals and measures attached.
These goals will be measured annually to provide a yearly strategic plan review. Action plans or activities that have been developed by priority leads, in support of achieving higher level strategic plan goals, may also have indicators that are used to track progress – these measures could also be used as reportable indicators for the plan.
Additionally, these action plans or activities will be captured within our quarterly operational plan reporting process. As a part of our Board of Health’s (BoH) consolidated by-laws, regular reviews of our strategic plan are required. In order to support a framework of continuous improvement, the strategic plan will be reviewed and its progress will be measured and reported to the BoH annually.
The annual review process will consist of a meeting with the SPC, with an attempt to have all previous committee members involved.
During The annual review meeting the plan elements, including goals and indicators, will be discussed and reviewed. At that time, elements of the plan, specifically objectives, goals, and indicators, may be altered to account for changes in the internal and external environment.
The mission, vision, values statements, and priorities will remain consistent throughout the duration of the plan to ensure that a consistent focus is maintained. After the SPC review, a strategic plan report will be prepared and presented to the BoH for consideration.
