Kia ora and welcome to Auckland District
Health Board (ADHB)
Healthy Communities, Quality
Healthcare
Our vision is one of a population
full of healthy communities who have access to quality healthcare
when they need it.
To achieve our vision ADHB has three key goals that guide all the
decisions we make and the actions we take.
Our goals
• Lifting the health of people in Auckland City;
• Leading performance improvement;
• Living within our means.
Each year we make significant and consistent progress towards our
organisational goals. Perhaps most significant is that we are
‘living within our means’, reporting a better than break-even result
in 2008, while producing more health outputs, an increase in
productivity, improvements in efficiency and better management of
our waiting lists.
In order to lift the health of our population at ADHB, we see a
District Health Board as being much more than just a hospital. We
promote a ‘whole system’ approach which sees our focus broadened
from simply the treatment and care of people in hospital, to
prevention - keeping our population well. This means we provide the
community with the education, resources and skills to help them live
healthier lifestyles and in turn create a healthier Auckland.
We are also working towards the goal of ADHB becoming a reference
site for other medical and professional colleagues, as well as
District Health Boards, throughout New Zealand. We are taking part
in a number of exciting innovations and developments which will help
us to attain this objective.
We have achieved much but are still working to maximise the services
we offer to the people of Auckland. We could not do this without our
staff of over 9000 and I attribute our successes to each and every
one of them.
