Overall purposes of the Strategy: Reduce the incidence and impact of cancer Reduce inequalities with respect to cancer
NZ CC Strategy Goals • Reduce the incidence of cancer through primary prevention • Ensure effective screening and early detection • Ensure effective diagnosis and treatment of cancer • Improve the quality of life for those with cancer, their family and whanau through support, rehabilitation & palliative care • Improve the delivery of services across the continuum of cancer control, through effective planning, co-ordination and integration of resources and activity, monitoring and evaluation • Improve the effectiveness of cancer control in NZ through research and surveillance.
Key Players • Ministry of Health • 21 District Health Boards • NZ Cancer Control Implementation Steering • NZ Cancer Treatment Working Party • National Clinical Director, CCC • PHARMAC,SPNIA • 4 Regional Cancer Networks • Primary Health Organisations • Non-Government Organisations • Consumers
Regional Cancer Networks • established 2006/07 • Leadership, facilitation & co-ordination role • Continuum – primary prevention, screening & early detection, treatment, rehabilitation & support, palliative care, research & surveillance • Complex organisational & service delivery structures
