New Pregnancy and Parenting Service Hub for Whakatane.

Reporter

Hi neighbours - Whakatane Hospital is getting a new Pregnancy and Parenting Service Hub, one of two new hubs launched with $7 million of Government funding.

Health Minister Dr David Clark says he expects up to 100 families will benefit from the new service. He says the new pregnancy and parenting service will aim to address issues such as mental health, drug and alcohol addictions and family violence.

Is this an important investment for Whakatane? Should funding be allocated elsewhere? If so, where?
