1. INTRODUCTION Our 2013/14 Nelson Marlborough Maori Health Plan strengthens the alliance framework between Nelson Marlborough District Health Board (NMDHB), Nelson Bays Primary Health (NBPH) and Kimi Hauora Marlborough PHO (KHW MPHO), to achieve the vision of ‘Kia korowaitia aku mokopuna kite korowaitanga hauora’, ‘We want to wrap out future generations in a korowai of health and wellness’.1 By having greater ownership to Maori health and health inequalities, the responsibility will be shared by the alliance partners, across the continuum of care. There will be some major service transitional changes as the Maori health provider coalition work towards developing the structural and service changes needed to achieve national policy direction in terms of Whanau Ora. The overall aim for this development is to achieve Whanau Ora outcomes through working collaboratively. The achievements will be seen through implementation of Whanau Ora centered services that seek to improve access, ensure services are appropriate, good quality management systems and best practice is in place and the services respond to whanau and are culturally appropriate. To improve reaching equity of outcome for Maori, in 2013/2014 Nelson Marlborough will have a focussed effort on improving integration of services across the whole of system. This includes hospital services, general practice, Maori health providers and other community services. As part of the Maori Health coalition, clinical leadership will be developed that is a key enabler for integration to occur.

2. NELSON MARLBOROUGH MAORI POPULATION 2.1 Population Profile The Nelson Marlborough DHB service coverage area encompasses three Territorial Local Authorities, Tasman District Council, Nelson City Council, and Marlborough District Council. 8.9% of the Nelson Marlborough population are of Maori descent. Table 1 – Maori ethnic population medium projections by regional council area. (* 2006 baseline) 2

Territorial Local Authority Tasman District Nelson City Marlborough District Nelson Marlborough (Maori)

2006* 3300 (28%) 3900 (33%) 4600 (39%) 11,800

2011 3600 (27.5%) 4500 (34%) 5100 (38.5%) 13,200

2016 3800 (26.5%) 5000 (35%) 5500 (38.5%) 14,300

2021 4100 (26.5%) 5500 (35.5%) 5900 (38%) 15,500

Data from the Maori Health Profile 2007 and Statistics NZ identify that: There is an expected increase in the Maori population to 9.5% based on population projections. This still remains less than the national average of 15%. Maata Waka represents the largest portion of Maori living in Te Tau Ihu at about 92%. The highest average growth in the Maori population across the districts will be in Nelson at 2.2%, followed by Marlborough at 1.7%, and Tasman at 1.4%. Marlborough district has the highest proportion of Maori, followed by Nelson, then Tasman. The number of Maori enrolled within the PHO’s are as follows: 1. 2.

2.2 Age Gender The age structure for Te Tau Ihu Maori and the region’s total population differ significantly. Maori have a younger population than non-Maori. Maori living in the region have a younger age structure with 59% less than 29 years of age. The gender distribution for Nelson Marlborough Maori is split evenly (50%/50%).

2.3 Socio Economic Status Maori are disproportionately represented in the more deprived areas of New Zealand, including the Nelson Marlborough region. Maori households within Te Tau Ihu have less access to phones. A higher proportion of Maori in Te Tau Ihu have no qualifications than non-Maori in the area. Most adults are in work and have a good level of education.

2.4 Income Income has been claimed to be the most important modifiable determinant of health. Maori in Te Tau Ihu are less likely to earn over $10,000 per annum than non-Maori in the region. Maori in Te Tau Ihu are also unlikely to earn incomes in the highest categories. Maori households experience difficulties earning an income and most Maori individual workers are modest earners.

2.5 Housing Housing is a basic human need and has a large impact on people’s well-being and quality of life. Issues related to housing crisis, such as affordability problems, poor quality and household crowding, have many flow-on effects for people’s health, education, community participation, community cohesion and safety. Marlborough Maori are three times more likely to live in an overcrowded house than the overall Nelson Marlborough population.

2.6 Life expectancy The life expectancy of Nelson Marlborough Maori is 78.2 years for females and 73.5 years for males indicating Maori in the region live longer than the national average. However, Maori men and women in the region still die younger than their non-Maori/non-Pacific peers in Nelson Marlborough - 2.6 years younger for men and 3.1 years for women (Wellington School of Medicine, 2001). Life expectancy for Maori compares well to non-Maori.

2.7 Deprivation The 2006 deprivation profiles for Nelson Marlborough and its territorial authorities show: Maori are more heavily skewed towards the higher deprivation deciles than non-Maori for all three territorial authorities. This trend is most pronounced in the Nelson City region where 48% of Maori live in deciles 8, 9 and 10. However, the distribution of the local Maori population is less heavily skewed towards the higher deprivation deciles than in New Zealand as a whole (Wellington School of Medicine, 2001).

2.8 Leading causes of avoidable hospitalisations The six leading causes are (in order ranked highest to lowest) for Maori 0 to 74 years of age are, dental conditions; upper respiratory/ear nose and throat; angina and chest pain; asthma; pneumonia; and cellulitis.

2.9 Leading causes of avoidable mortality The four leading causes are (in order ranked highest to lowest), ischaemic heart disease; lung cancer; suicide and self inflicted harm; and COPD.

While there are disparities between Maori and non-Maori in terms of health status and the social determinants of health, Nelson Marlborough chooses to operate from a wellness model as opposed to an illness model. Equity is intrinsic to quality improvement. If Maori in Te Tau Ihu had equity of access, this does not necessarily result in equity of health outcome3. Nelson Marlborough services must recognise and understand why there are disparities, and set forward a programme to reduce these as part of their overall quality improvement processes.

3. Dedicated Maori Health Investment A recent stocktake of Maori health spend within Nelson Marlborough DHB has identified that $5.8 million is budgeted on Maori health. There are however a number of Maori staff or programmes that support both primary and secondary care services/programmes to assist them reach or improve their service delivery to Maori. This will include activities such as cultural training, ethnicity data collection, or service planning. For the purpose of this exercise, these activities are not counted in the stocktake.

4. PRIORITISING MAORI HEALTH TARGETS FOR TE TAU IHU The development of Maori health plans and the establishment of national Maori health targets means that District Health Boards will be closely monitored on their ability to reduce health disparities in the foreseeable future. In 2011 NMDHB started a project to develop a long-term Maori Health Outcomes Framework for Nelson Marlborough. The decision for doing this was to establish what information was needed, recommend a list of population indicators, and the method by which the DHB would capture and report information to the local community, NMDHB Board and the Iwi Health Board covering the life of the 30-year Maori health vision. In 2012/13, NMDHB signed off on the framework and started the process of implementation. The environment is ripe to create the positive change across the sector. Strengthened working relationships, agreed partnerships or alliances and collaborative action to whanau will over time bring results that the community can take ownership of. NMDHB 2012/2013 indicators were used as part of the local balance score card for Maori health. Reports were prepared for the Nelson Marlborough Health Alliance, PHO Boards, NMDHB Board and Iwi Health Board noting progress against these indicators. The Iwi Health Board has made it clear that for 2013/14 its focus will be towards strengthening the measurement of Maori health gain and creating strategic opportunities around accountabilities and ownership of results. The majority of indicators developed are also covered within the National Indicators. Additional indicators at a local level are Maori Health Coalition integration, Programmes of Care, and Oral Health. The Alliance will meet quarterly to review progress against this plan. NMDHB Maori Health Outcomes Framework is as follows:
