Description

The National Wellness Policy for Fiji is a national-level multi-sectorial policy that ensures that groups outside the Ministry of Health and Medical Services (MOHMS) can advocate and protect Fijian health and wellness. This ensures that Wellness delivery may live up to the Healthy Islands vision from 1995, through a new concept of an individual‟s dimensions of Wellness:
1. Social Wellness, where Fijians maintain a positive, productive community,
2. Spiritual Wellness is the ability to establish peace and harmony in our lives, with the ability to develop
congruency between values and actions.
3. Environmental Wellness, that Fijians recognize the contribution of their environment towards health,
4. Occupational Wellness, as Fijians gain satisfaction in their working life,
5. Psychological Wellness, the ability to understand ourselves and open our minds to new ideas and
experiences that can help us cope with the challenges life can bring,
6. Physical Wellness, maintaining a state of biological good health and freedom from diseases, and
7. Financial Wellness, having the ability to access resources readily, to maintain the smooth running of daily
activities.
