Mental health data and stats

This is the eleventh Annual Report of the Office of the Director of Mental Health. It presents information and statistics that serve as indicators of quality for our mental health services. 

These tables present a summary of the mental health and addiction services provided in New Zealand in 2012/13. Included are the demographics of users of mental health and addiction services, the types of services provided, and outcomes of treatment.

This Guide is intended to support the mental health and addictions sector workforce to capture and record service activity information more accurately. Specific case scenarios have been developed for all current activity codes detailed in the PRIMHD Code Set Standard HISO 10023.3:2015, with a specific focus on clarifying those that have demonstrated inconsistent interpretation. 

This annual statistical publication presents suicide information received from the New Zealand Mortality Collection, and admissions to hospital for intentional self-harm sourced from the New Zealand National Minimum Dataset.
