In this edition of Health New Zealand | Te Whatu Ora Waitaha Canterbury Pānui
In this week’s issue of the Pānui, we welcome 61 new house officers who start their medical careers at Health New Zealand | Te Whatu Ora Waitaha Canterbury. A house officer is the term for a doctor when they first graduate and are not in a specialist training programme. One third of this year’s cohort did not train here so came from outside the region.
This week’s One min with… features Keith Tallentire, Regional Sustainability Lead and a coordinated effort from Maintenance and Engineering, Clinical Engineering, anaesthetists, orderlies, and the Sustainability Team has resulted in the Riverside block at Christchurch Hospital joining Parkside block and Burwood Hospital in having piped (reticulated) nitrous oxide (N2O) switched off.
We also raise awareness this February for Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month.
You can read the Health New Zealand | Te Whatu Ora Waitaha Canterbury Pānui online.
