Dear Northland District Health Board,

I am seeking information on the performance and service of DHBs for their provision of mental health services. I would like data for the following:

For all of your Mental Health health services including Child and adolescent metal health; adult mental health, emergency, acute, crisis response; elderly, I would like the following:
• Number of new entries/cases per month, by age group (five year bands if possible*), 2015 – 2020 calendar year
• Number of cases open at month end, by age group (five year bands), 2015 – 2020 calendar year
• Number of people exiting per month, by age group (five year bands if possible*), 2015 – 2020 calendar year

For the DHB:
• Number of hospitalisations for mental health per year, emergency and non-emergency, by age group (five year bands), 2015 – 2020 calendar year
• Number of people waitlisted to see a psychologist per year, by age group (five year bands), 2015 – 2020 calendar year
• Number of people seeing a psychologist, per year, by age group (five year bands), 2015 – 2020 calendar year
• Number of psychologists employed by the DHB at year end (split by part time, full time, contracted) by year, 2015 – 2020 calendar year

*Five year bands are ideally 0 – 5, 6 – 10, 11 -15, 16- 20, 21 – 25, 26 -30, etc. If there is too much suppression in those age bands can it please be in ten year age bands.
