Service
The Primary Options Acute
Demand Management Service
(POADMS) provides funding
and resourcing enabling people
to receive timely care in a
community setting, close to home
rather than in hospital. For the
signi昀椀cant rural population in Tai
Tokerau, this service supports
more equitable access to care.
The programme aims to reduce
hospital presentations, shorten
lengths of stay and prevent
readmissions and provides
funding for services such as ECGs,

team liaise between primary

health service providers to ensure
continuity of care for patients and
is continually reviewing options
for inclusion against the demand
