Collaborative Models

Objective: To discuss an alternative model for delivering mental health services to Pacific people in general practice. Methods: Review of primary healthcare models which attempt to integrate behavioural healthcare with general practice. Results: There is some evidence that relationship-based collaborative models may improve both mental and physical health. Such a model has been implemented successfully by Alaskan Native Americans. Conclusion: An integrated model of healthcare incorporating Pacific cultural values may reduce stigma and improve engagement and efficacy in delivering mental health treatment to Pacific people, their families and communities.
