Hospital midwives strike
Important notice for pregnant women
Hospital midwives at Waikato, Thames and Tokoroa hospitals who are members of the MERAS union have issued a notice to strike
When: Twice a day for two hours for two weeks starting Thursday 22 November

This does not affect Lead Maternity Carers (LMCs).
Our priority is the safety of our mothers and their babies and we have plans in place to ensure women can access the services they need and are kept safe during the strike.
No women will be turned away from our delivery suite.
We expect the main impact on our maternity services to be the postponement of some ante-natal clinics. We will contact those patients directly.
If you have concerns or questions please contact Healthline on

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
