The Board of the Federation of Primary Health Aotearoa New Zealand (the Federation) is excited to be hosting over 50 Primary Health Sector CEOs and Chairs to its in augural Strategy Day on 20 March 2019.
Hon. Steve Chadwick, Chair of the Federation, stated “There is a fantastic amount of energy in the Primary Health Sector to make a difference to New Zealanders’ health outcomes. The Federation’s purpose is to provide national leadership on key issues affecting primary health.”
“For the first time many different disciplines and organisations are coming together to forge a better understanding of the common areas of concern and where we can develop better strategies to improve access, sustainability and better partnerships so that health outcomes are improved.”
“It’s really hard to argue with the principle of high quality and sustainable primary health care being available and accessible to all and being at the centre of a national health policy.”
The Minister of Health, Hon Dr David Clark will also be attending and addressing the members of the Federation at the Strategy day.
The Strategy day is being held on the 20 March in Wellington and is open to members of the Federation. Currently over 40 Primary Health sector organisations are members of the Federation and prospective new members are always welcome to contact the Federation through its website www.fph.org.nz.
Highlighting the Federation’s early input into New Zealand’s future health strategy, Hon. Steve Chadwick continued on to say “The Board is delighted to be welcoming such a large number of primary sector leaders and thinkers to the Strategy day. This will help ensure that we deliver on our purpose to provide national leadership on key issues affecting primary health in New Zealand.”
