Executive Summary 
Sydney Local Health District is providing excellent services to their patients and serving 
the society. They are focusing on improving their overall services and in achieving excellence. 
The forward-looking strategies are well developed and designed by the SLHD that provides their 
strategic planning and action for the near future. The strategy of every spectrum has mentioned 
beginning from patients, consumers, staff, community, services, education, research, and 
organization. The main strategic gap that is found in the SLHD mental health is that it was 
providing an outline about every idea of the hospital and there was no strategic map as for how 
they will execute the plan to achieve the success. The strategy should contain details about the 
physical environmental condition that is not provided by SLHD which is a main strategic gap.  
There is no clear description about the interrelationship that is present between the 
various strategies and the consumer participation. As per the open system theory will result in 
forming an organization that will have both formal and informal organization, the pattern and 
behaviors, the roles and responsibilities and the overall physical environmental condition. SLHD 
should focus on eliminating the overall restrictions that are present in the system. In case of 
mental healthcare services, it is essential for the hospital to provide more independence to the 
physician and to the consumers that is patient care providers in deciding the suitable care for 
their patient. Leadership and empowering the consumers and physicians are essential for the 
SLHD to fill the strategic gap. Open system theory, theory of constraints, theory of contingency 
and theory Z is primarily used for justifying the recommendations to overcome the strategic gap.

Introduction 
Sydney Local Health District is providing excellent services to their patients and serving 
the society. They are focusing on improving their overall services and in achieving excellence. 
They made more analysis about the growing changes in the environment and changes in the 
demand (Ginter, Duncan and Swayne, 2013). They focus on enhancing the overall services by 
incorporating people, vision, employees, community, services, education, research and 
organization as a whole in the strategy formation. The forward-looking strategies are well 
developed and designed by the SLHD that provides their strategic planning and action for the 
near future. The strategy of every spectrum has mentioned beginning from patients, consumers, 
staff, community, services, education, research and organization (Health Catalyst, 2014).  
Providing strategy for every segment makes them a clear strategy that addresses various 
areas of the hospital. There is a requirement for the hospital to indicate as for how these 
strategies will pave the way for them in an organized manner to accomplish their target. The 
paper mainly focuses on the strategic gap that is present in the mental health care services and 
focuses on providing a suitable recommendation to overcome these strategic gaps. The paper 
initially focuses on the existing strategic gap and then proposes a suitable recommendation to 
overcome them and justifies using various organization theory so that SLHD can improve their 
overall services provides.  
Strategic Gap In SLHD 
The main strategic gap that is found in the SLHD mental health is that it was providing 
an outline about every idea of the hospital and there was no strategic map as for how they will 
execute the plan to achieve the success. The strategy should contain details about the physical 
environmental condition that is not provided by SLHD which is a main strategic gap. There is no

clear description about the interrelationship that is present between the various strategies and the 
consumer participation (JB Pub, n.d.). The major strategic gap in the plan is a lack of definition 
about the interdependency and decision-making process. There should have been definition 
about the safety and the care that would be provided by the mental health care department which 
was missing and is a major strategic gap. 
It did not through light on as how there will be coordination among various departments 
in executing the program. Consumer participation is essential for the mental health care services 
as they will make use of various researches conducted in the university on the patients. There is 
overall definition about various approach and goals of the hospital. The hospital should indicate 
the consumer participation level that how they will be in line with various strategies of the 
hospital to provide the treatment. In this case, the hospital did not provide an indication about 
what are the departments will be involved along with the mental health care because there are 
more cases where another department participation is essential to address the patient 
requirement.  
There is no indication about the level of consumer participation that is it is critical to 
consumer to participate from the time of discussion and planning about the health care services 
to be provided to the respective patient which is not indicated. Besides the implementation of 
research on providing services,
