Keep the Emergency Department Free

Counties Manukau

The Counties Manukau region is currently experiencing high volumes of people going to hospital Emergency Departments which is causing long wait times.

The number of people coming to the ED at Middlemore Hospital for non-emergencies is rising and we need our communities support to keep the Emergency Department free for those who need it most.

ED’s are there primarily to treat those whose condition threatens their life or limb.

Unless someone is experiencing an emergency, we are asking them to visit their local GP or Urgent Care clinic.
This will enable our busy ED staff to focus their time and resources on patients who have life threatening emergencies.

Help us to help you, your friends, your whaanau and our community.

Let’s keep the ED Free!

🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.

This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.

We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?
