Population health at ProCare

We partner with practices to understand our communities and what they need to live well. Our approach includes focused approaches for Māori, Pacific, and Asian health, and five life-stage focus areas.

Māori Health

ProCare has a strong focus on improving the health and wellbeing outcomes of our Māori communities. We work in partnership with community organisations.

Our aim is to deliver programmes that help promote overall wellbeing for whānau, whilst at the same time reducing the incidence of factors that may cause ill health such as rheumatic fever, diabetes, heart disease, smoking and mental health and addiction challenges.

Asian Health

ProCare is committed to meeting the needs of our Asian communities by delivering culturally responsive  healthcare. 

Our expertise means that respecting language, traditions, and individual preferences, goes without saying. Our experienced, multi-lingual team makes services accessible and removes barriers, so every patient receives compassionate, high-quality support.

Pacific Health

ProCare aims to improve the health outcomes for Pacific communities by working in partnership with community organisations to address the equity gaps and integrate healthcare into the community.

We recognise people’s health and wellbeing can be supported in a range of different settings, including at home, at school, at church or at the gym.

Our five foundation areas for population health

In 2018, ProCare published Our Picture of Health — a landmark analysis of more than 850,000 enrolled patients. This work identified five key areas of focus across life stages, forming the basis of our Population Health Strategy.

Learn about the five priority areas in the videos below and how they guide our approach to improving health outcomes.
