Falls prevention programme prompts dramatic drop in fall rates

Think Hauora

Did you know that if you suffer from a fragility fracture following a fall your chance of having another fracture in the future doubles? Our falls prevention and fracture liaison teams were proud to be featured in a Manawatu Standard article this week highlighting the impact of their work in the communities. www.stuff.co.nz...

Our teams work with other agencies in the districts to help prevent future fractures and rebuild people's confidence following a fall. There's more information about our Fracture Liaison Service on our website - check it out if you think it's something that could benefit you!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
