Auckland DHB and Waitemata DHB
Collaboration Maternity Plan 2015
Since 2013, Women’s Health services in Auckland DHB (ADHB) and Waitemata DHB (WDHB) have been working collaboratively with a range of stakeholders to determine how best to deliver primary and secondary maternity services to our populations and create better frameworks for primary maternity providers using DHB services.
- a review of the current models of care and configuration of services across primary and secondary services;
- modelling of future demand for primary and secondary maternity volumes over the next 10 years; and
- the development of a collaborative model of care that includes recommendations for location and configuration of future services.
Along with workshops, feedback from maternity consumers, stakeholders and DHB staff, this information has helped form a strategic direction for Auckland DHB and Waitemata DHB to provide sustainable maternity services into the future.
