Dannevirke locals meeting to discuss dire state of healthcare
Dannevirke residents have the chance to make their voices heard about the state of healthcare in the Tararua district tonight. On Monday six staff in nearby Pahiatua resigned from the town's Medical Centre amid concerns about the extreme workload and patient safety. The centre, and Dannevirke Community Hospital, are owned by the Tararua Health Group. But the Hospital and Medical Centre are under review by Health NZ. Maori News Journalist Pokere Paewai spoke to Lisa Owen from Dannevirke.
