Information Utility Strategy
<< Previous | Index | Next >>
Introduction/background
Since the publication of the Ministry of Health's National Mental Health Information Strategy (2005) and the National Mental Health Information Strategy Implementation Plan (2006) there has been a need for an Information Utility Strategy, since both the previous documents emphasise the change from information collection to information use1.
Given the above and that Te Pou is charged with implementing training to the sector on information utility, there is a need for Te Pou to develop its own information strategy against which to benchmark training and other activities.
