Northern Territory Health (NT Health) is at an important and exciting juncture with the launch of its newstrategic plan that sets out an ambitious yet achievable set of priorities for the next five years. The plan aligns with the uniqueness of the Northern Territory’s geography and population and has six overarching aims:
The Northern Territory (NT) covers an area of some 1,349,129 square kilometres and is sparsely populated with approximately 228,833 people accounting for less than one per cent of the Australian population. Over 50 per cent of the population resides in Greater Darwin and approximately 27 per cent of the population are Aboriginal people. The population demographic group has a higher birth rate and a lower life expectancy, resulting in a considerably younger population age profile.
Over half of the Aboriginal population in the NT live in remote areas, compared with eight per cent of the non-Aboriginal population. Over 43 per cent of the NT population reside in remote/very remote areas (22 per cent nationally); 70 per cent of this cohort who live remotely are Aboriginal and reside in one of 600 communities or remote outstations.
The Top End Health Service (TEHS) is the largest healthcare provider in the Territory and has an integral role in the achievement of NT Health’s strategic priorities. It is a statutory body under the Northern Territory
“Health Services Act 2014” with an annual operating budget of $900m and approximately 4260 FTE. It delivers
the following public health services across the Top End region including Darwin, Tiwi Island, East Arnhem and
