Summary
The purpose of this project was to consider the Henry Review recommendation 49: The Ministry of Health recognise that the demand for allied health services for children, young people and families far exceeds supply and adopts a long term strategy to address the staff shortages. Targets for investment include initiatives for the First 2000 days, for mental health and for intervention for domestic violence.
The focus of this project was to gain a comprehensive understanding of the specific requirements for the paediatric allied health workforce in support of paediatric services and models of care.
