Some clinic appointments now through phone and video

The Team from Counties Manukau Health

We will once again be offering more telephone and video outpatient clinic appointments as the region responds to COVID-19 in the community.

To help reduce the risk of passing COVID-19 between patients, doctors, nurses and other healthcare staff, some face-to-face appointments at Middlemore Hospital and other sites such as Manukau, Botany and Pukekohe clinics, will be replaced by telephone and video outpatient appointments.

We will be sending texts, emails or calling to remind patients what type of appointment they should expect (telephone, video or in person). More information here: bit.ly...

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟

While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.

We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
