Frontiers – The Equity Challenge and New Models of Care 

Northlanders are frontier people, used to fixing their problems in their own way. As these people - Ngapuhi, other Iwi and the varied “tribes” of Pakeha - age, delivering good and equitable healthcare is becoming more challenging. At this Retreat we will focus on how to develop and adapt services to meet the needs and values of all Aotearoa’s older people. Sessions will include:

Guest Speakers;

• The Māori experience of dementia and the development of an assessment tool and App 
• Medicines use in older Māori and equity of access to aged care services

Clinical updates on common problems in older people, including;

• Heart failure,  Renal Disease,  Rheumatology and Stroke Medicine

Service development

• Acute Care of the Elderly in Northland  
• The new NZ Fragility Fracture Registry
• Perioperative medicine delirium prevention service
• In- home falls rehabilitation programme  
• Supported discharge / Recovery at Home
• Rongoa Māori services 

Education and Training

• SPDP3
• Advanced Trainees’ session and trainees’ presentations

 
Waitangi is a place of cultural, spiritual and historical significance for Aotearoa and has been a place of gathering for hundreds of years. It is set on the Bay of Islands, steeped in its own history and frankly overendowed with natural beauty. You can choose between cultural or scenic exploration – or both – in your free time.

Join us in the place where New Zealand began!
