Auckland DHB was established under the New Zealand Public Health and Disability Act 2000 to:

• Improve, promote, and protect the health of communities.
• Integrate health services, especially primary and secondary care services.
• Promote effective care or support of those in need of health services or disability support.

The DHB works to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of services, with primary care and our neighbouring DHBs in the northern region to ensure patients have the health services they need.
Auckland DHB has three major facilities: Auckland City Hospital, Starship Children's Hospital and Greenlane Clinical Centre. Auckland City Hospital is New Zealand’s largest public hospital as well as the largest clinical research facility. There are approximately one million patient contacts each year, including hospital and outpatient services.
