CCDHB Mental Health and Addiction Plan

CCDHB Mental Health and Addiction Plan Action Plan 2011-2014

Capital & Coast DHB is currently developing the mental health and Addiction Action Plan for the next three years. A draft version of the plan is uploaded on this page below.

The plan provides the vision and direction for mental health and addiction service development in our district for the next three years. The plan signals the need to:

Co-ordinate existing services, including primary care, in a way that will be much more responsive and accessible to people's needs
Broaden the focus of planning and leadership to the whole population's mental health needs to ensure better prevention and promotion
Recognise value and actively use the knowledge and wisdom of consumers, their families and informal supporters, established and respected community groups and agencies who promote general health and well-being.

The Leadership Group is continuing to meet to oversee the implementation of the Journey Forward Action Plan 2010-2014

Logo
The Journey Forward logo depicts a journey from illness to recovery and was created by Jim Wiki.

The koru signify the range of services that support the journey. Additionally, they depict reaching out for support.

The central crescents symbolize the stages of the journey as a person gets stronger. They also represent the intrinsic elements of a person; tinana (body), hinengaro (mind) and wairua (spirit). The supportive environment of the whānau (family) completes the balance of a person. This is depicted by the shape of the triangle.

The colours represent the transition from complexity (at the peak of the triangle) to enlightenment (at the base of the triangle).
