Abstract:
The aim of this report is to provide an overview of the health status of children and young people in New Zealand, and to assist those working to improve child and youth health to utilise all of the available evidence when developing programmes and interventions to address child and youth health need.
In this context, the role primary care plays in preventing a range of avoidable hospital admissions and mortality is crucial, with this year’s in depth topics focusing on the role of primary care in achieving health gains for children and young people. Specifically, the issues considered in this year’s in-depth topics are:
1. Models of Primary Care for Children.
2. Models of Primary Care for Young People.
The indicators in this report have been assigned to one of the following three main sections:
1. Issues more common in infancy
2. Issues more common in children, or common in both children and your people
3. Issues more common in young people
