The Comprehensive Primary and Community Teams (CPCT) initiative funds additional frontline clinical roles to increase capacity within general practice. These roles sit within the primary care general practice setting, improving access to care in the community, with a focus on priority groups and patients with complex needs.

Roles include:

• kaiāwhina
• physiotherapists
• care coordinators
• extended care paramedics.

Mahitahi Hauora is supporting the enablement of this programme across all participating general practices in Tai Tokerau, with recruitment and development of bespoke training plans to meet varying Models of Care across practices.
