  • Primary Health Care in Rural Southland
    "Putting The Bricks In place"; primary Health Care Services in Rural Southland Executive Summary To determine what the challenges are to rural primary health care, and nlake reconlmendations to enhance sustainable service provision. My objective is to qualify the future needs of Community Health Trusts. They must nleet the Ministry of Health directives regarding Primary Healthcare. These are as stated in the back to back contracts between PHOs and inclividual medical practices. I have compiled; from a representative group of rural patients, doctors and other professionals, facts, experiences, opinions and wish lists regarding primary medical services and its impact upon them, now and into the future. The information was collected by survey and interview and these are summarised within the report. During the completion of the report, I have attempted to illustrate the nature of historical delivery of primary healthcare in rural Southland. The present position and the barriers that are imposed on service provision and sustainability I have also highlighted some of the issues regarding expectations of medical service providers and their clients, re funding and manning levels The Goal; "A well educated (re health matters) and healthy population serviced by effective providers". As stated by the Chris Farrelly of the Manaia PHO we must ask ourselves "Am I really concerned by inequalities and injustice? We find that in order to achieve the PHO goals (passed down to the local level) we must have; Additional health practitioners Sustainable funding And sound strategies for future actions through a collaborative model.

  • The Soils of Southland and Their Potential Uses E
    THE SOILS OF SOUTHLAND AND THEIR POTENTIAL USES E. J. B. CUTLER, Pedologist, Soil Bureau, Department of Scientific and Industrial Research, Dunedin The pedologist should concern himself not only with mapping and classification of soils; he should examine the use to which soils are put and the changes that take place under varying kinds of use or misuse. The soil survey is only the starting point; it shows the physical, chemical and genetic characteristics of soils, their distribution and relationship to environment. First of all we are interested in the nature of our soils in their undisturbed native state. We can then~ follow the changes that have taken place with changing farming techniques and try to predict desirable changes or modifications; changes which will not only improve the short term production from the soils, but enable us to maintain long-term, sustained-yield production. These prin- ciples apply equally in the mountains and on the plains. Secondly we are interested in seeing that our soil resources arc used most efficiently; that usage of soils takes place in a logical way and that those concerned .with economics are aware of the limitations of the soil as well as of its potentialities. Thirdly there is the aesthetic viewpoint, perhaps not capable of strict scientific treatment but nonetheless a very important one to all of us as civilised people. There is no reason why our landscape should not be planned for pleasure as well as for profit. THE SOILS OF SOUTHLAND The basic soil pattern of Southland is fairly simple; there are three groups of soils delineated primarily by climatic factors.
