Supporting the primary care sector

A strong primary care sector is crucial to a successful New Zealand health system, providing great care for patients and a great work environment.  

The Health Media and the Pharmacy Guild believe the awards will encourage collaboration and innovation in primary care, and allow the healthcare sector in general, and the public, to see how hard primary care practitioners work to improve the health and wellbeing of all New Zealanders, and keep them out of the secondary care (hospital) system. 

The collective aim is to improve access, health and wellbeing outcomes for Māori and non-Māori alike, and the awards celebrate the work that is already happening as a means to encouraging further collaboration.
