Please keep ED free for emergencies

Gemma Elizabeth from Hutt Valley District Health Board

Kenepuru Community, Wellington Regional, and Hutt Hospitals are currently experiencing higher volumes of patients – particularly in the region’s emergency departments.

Anyone presenting to ED will be assessed by a nurse on arrival, and will be prioritised for treatment based on their assessed level of clinical need. If you are assessed as not having an urgent need, you can expect to wait longer to see a clinician.

If you are unsure about whether you require urgent care, please call your GP or Healthline (0800 611 116) for advice. In an emergency, phone 111.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.

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?
