Getting Started for Managers
The Getting Started for Managers program is designed to help you become familiar with the District, key responsibilities of all managers and the services that you will work with.
This program includes a checklist to guide your first three months in your management role as well as a series of virtual key stakeholder briefing sessions so that you can learn more about your role as a manager. You will also get to know the people and services that can support you in your role.
Checklist
A comprehensive checklist has been developed in consultation with key stakeholders to guide your first three months in your management position. This checklist includes the data that you should review for your service, systems that you might need access to, policies that you should review as well as topics for discussion with your line manager.

Frameworks
| Management Accountability Framework |
The Management Accountability Framework outlines our management philosophy in Sydney Local Health District, the key expectations of all managers and translates this to everyday practice. In our District we define managers as any person who has responsibility for staff and/or the use of resources. This might be a supervisor, manager, department head or director. |
|---|---|
| Staff Accountability Framework |
The Staff Accountability Framework outlines the core expectations of all our staff. These expectations help us work together to build healthy teams and help us support each other to deliver high quality patient and family centred care. Managers are responsible for making sure that their staff are aware of the Staff Accountability Framework and that staff are meeting these core expectations. |
