The information above is an example of the DHB level data obtained via the 2017 survey (response rate of 52%). For DHBs with at least 30 survey respondents, the cells have been shaded. The shading reflects the level of indicators of current or future workforce shortage. DHBs with a high dependence on international medical graduates (IMGs) are also highlighted by this method.
