"Vaccination Rollout Interest Registration

Register your interest in being apart of the Vaccine Rollout.

A key area within this programme is focused on the vaccinator workforce – the aim is to ensure that COVID-19 vaccinations do not impact on the core health and disability system. The Ministry will be working closely with DHBs and providers to support them to bring on appropriately qualified workers to be a part of the vaccinator workforce.

We are now looking to update the surge workforce database to capture offers of support from people willing to be part of this workforce so that we can link people with opportunities as they become available. By following the link below, you can register your interest to support the roll out of the vaccine: zfrmz.com.au...

Thank you again in advance for your offer of support.

Ngā mihi nui,
Anna Clark
Deputy Director-General, Health Workforce"

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.

🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.

Remember, banks will:​​
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes​​
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device​​
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.

If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
