Te Whatu Ora

Māori Nursing

Dave Samuels says there was no political interference with the Whānau Ora procurement process.

The programme, launched in 2004, delivers fresh produce daily to more than 126,000 tamariki and staff nationwide.

New Zealand Nurses Organization president Kerri Nuku is fearful that if the government fails to look after nurses they will have no hesitation moving overseas.

Data from the Office of the Chief Coroner shows inequity persists as Māori are disproportionately represented in suicide statistics.

It called for voluntary redundancies in August as it tries to cut costs to head off a huge deficit.

Te Whatu Ora Health New Zealand were gifted the plans and Hauora Māori Priority Reports, which highlighted whānau voices, in a kete.

The appointment of the only remaining member of the Health NZ as Deputy Commissioner makes a farce of the decision to bring in Commissioners, Labour says.

Te Whatu Ora’s chief clinical officer Richard Sullivan says it will ensure a small group of cancer patients will get free early access to the drug Keytruda.

Labour doesn’t accept the Governments ‘spin’ that the health system isn’t ready to deliver Keytruda cancer treatments.

Te Whatu Ora will block 20 to 30 patients from receiving Keytryda until the drug is funded by Pharmac on October 1.

The report recommended the tool continue to be used in the hospitals it’s already been rolled out in, but under strict conditions and on the basis improvements are made.

The party says Health NZ should have a "single-minded focus" on health priorities, and that karakia "detracts from that goal".

Shane Reti says Labour and Ayesha Verral are reinventing history to avoid responsibility for their “botched merger” at Te Whatu Ora/Health New Zealand.

This is the second free legal clinic to open after the success of the Whangārei clinic.

Sir Collin Tukuitonga resigned from Te Whatu Ora last year after the coalition government was elected. He is now going to work with the World Health Organisation.

The 90-day plan, the successor to the 100-day plan, features 36 action points, none of which include actioning the coalition’s ‘English-first’ decree.
