For some New Zealanders, the cost of mobile data can be a barrier to accessing essential health and wellbeing information and digital health services. Those who cannot access information and services often have the highest needs.
Te Tara O Te Whai has gathered community insights from a Health Forum in Te Aroha, QR survey and one-on-one with individuals.
On behalf of the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA)
A successful collaboration between Wharekawa Marae, Kaiaua school and Te Whatu Ora last month (April).
Kaiaua whānau were able to connect with a range of health services on the day. Talking with whānau about the local health changes, whānau were also sharing with our team their thoughts on what changes they would like to see in their community.
