Pegasus Health Equity Leadership team
Tēnā koutou katoa, Talofa lava, Kia orana, Malo e lelei, Bula Vinaka, Fakaalofa lahi atu, Namaste, Ni hao, Mabuhay, Salam alaikum.
The Equity Leadership team includes health managers who focus on Māori, Pacific Peoples, Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CALD), Youth, Rainbow, Tāngata Whaikaha Disabled peoples and low income communities. The team includes a population health specialist, as well as the Refugee Health Service team. There is a focus on environmental sustainability.
The team leads the implementation of the Pegasus Health Equity and Population Health Strategy, Kia atawhai ki te tangata, 2022-2030. This strategy strengthens Pegasus’ commitment to achieve health equity by purposefully and strategically threading equity and Te Tiriti o Waitangi throughout our organisation, the wider primary healthcare network, and all aspects of how we work.
The team works collaboratively with other teams, practices, pharmacies and other organisations to influence change within our organisation and across the wider health system. We focus on enabling equitable access to health care and equitable health outcomes with key population groups, especially Māori.
