Performance Appraisal system, Health NZ Te Whatu
Ora, Canterbury
NOTE:This is for Health NZ Te Whata Ora Canterbury staff only.
For external organisations please contact your PDRP Coordinator to find out how to maintain your level at the interim year.
PDRP Interim Appraisals are no longer a requirement as the following procedure now applies:
All nurses, HCAs and Nurse Practitioners in Te Whatu Ora Canterbury are self-responsible for completing the Success and Development Form for Nurses on MAX. You will then arrange/book into the eCalendar, a short meeting with your Nurse Manager to discuss/finalise this process.
This occurs yearly, and it is the responsibility of each nurse/HCA/NP to initiate and complete on MAX and arrange this meeting. Some nurses use the anniversary date of their APC, as a reminder to do this process.
A Competence Assessment form is available for NCNZ audit or if a manager or Nurse requests a competence assessment against the NCNZ competencies. This form is not required for an ePortfolio, as the competencies are embedded within the ePortfolio. There is room for the competence assessment form, or the completed and assessed ePortfolio to be attached to the nurse's MAX Success & Development template also.
A major change of this new system is the PDRP Interim Appraisal has been discontinued (Health NZ Canterbury). You will therefore confirm you are meeting your PDRP level at your yearly Success and Development Conversation with your Nurse Manager, and the PDRP team will audit this information.
NOTE: If a nurse is going on parental or extended leave over their 3 yearly expiration date, they are still required to resubmit their portfolio by this date. This is because under the HPCA, Nursing Council audit requirements must still be met, in this case through the PDRP.
