Good morning Andrew,
 
I refer to your Official Information Act request to the Ministry of Health

boards for response.
 
Your questions are as follows:
 
 “Please provide Guidelines/Procedures for the management of postoperative
Urinary Retention (POUR)”
"Please provide Guidelines/procedure for the management/prevention of
persistent Postsurgical Pain”
“Please provide Guidelines/procedure in the treatment of patients after a
suicide attempt and/or suicidal ideation”
“Please provide Guidelines/procedure differentiating subtypes of primary
(idiopathic) constipation”
 
This is an acknowledgement email from Hawke’s Bay DHB that the transfer
request has been received and your OIA with our DHB has given the
Ref:OIA2021170.
 
Under the Official Information Act 1982, we have 20 working days from
receipt of referral.  Therefore we anticipate a response back to you on or

If we are unable to respond to your request within the required 20 working
days, we will notify you of an extension of that timeframe. If any
additional factors come to light which are relevant to your request,

account.

Hello Andrew

 

Thank you for your OIA request, received as a transfer from the Ministry
of Health yesterday. Please note that your four requests, below, are being
managed as one request and we will provide a single, combined response to
the following questions:

 

1.       Please provide guidelines/procedures for the management of
postoperative urinary retention (POUR).

2.       Please provide guidelines/procedures for the
management/prevention of persistent postsurgical pain.

3.       Please provide guidelines/procedures in the treatment of patients
after a suicide attempt and/or suicidal ideation.

4.       Please provide guidelines/procedures differentiating subtypes of
primary (idiopathic) constipation.

 

While we will endeavour to provide a response to you within the 20 working
days allowed under the Act, it should be noted that Waitematâ DHB’s
clinicians, managers and staff are concentrating on measures to manage the
current COVID-19 Delta outbreak in the region.

 

Therefore, we have limited capacity to respond to some OIA requests. If
for any reason we are unable to meet the deadline and need to extend the
timeframe for your response, we will be in touch to advise why this has
been necessary and to indicate when your response will be ready.

 

Please note that Waitematâ DHB supports the open disclosure of information
to assist community understanding of how we are delivering publicly-funded
healthcare. This includes the proactive publication of anonymised Official
Information Act responses on our website from 10 working days after they
have been released.

 

If you feel that there are good reasons why your response should not be
made publicly available, we will be happy to consider this.

 

Please be aware that the OIA system is on-hold nationally between COB 24
December 2021 and 17 January 2022.
