When it comes to New Zealand’s online casino scene, there is no shortage of options to choose from. While online gaming can be a fun way to pass the time and potentially win some extra cash, it’s important to also consider the bigger picture. Specifically, players should be mindful of how the casino prioritizes health services for its customers.
This can include measures such as responsible gambling resources, addiction prevention programs, and mental health support. By choosing a Nzcasinoonline website that puts the well-being of its customers first, players can enjoy their gaming experience with peace of mind.
Lead Maternity Carer Services
A team of two midwives and support staff provide our maternity service. We provide 24hr midwifery cover to support hapu mama (pregnant mother) and whanau (family) throughout their Haputanga (pregnancy), this continues to 5-6wks following the birth of pepi.
Hauora Hokianga’s Lead Maternity Carer services are available for no charge for all NZ residents.
A hapu mama doesn’t have to be registered with Hauora Hokianga to receive care from our maternity service. Although she does need to live in the area we provide service to, we are happy to discuss this with you.
We are a Primary service; this means that if there are any complications or problems a referral to the obstetric team in Whangarei is required. We don’t provide midwifery services in Te Kotuku, Whangarei.
The service provides maternity care for approximately 120 women each year.
