In this edition of Te Whatu Ora Waitaha | Canterbury Pānui

In our first Pānui for 2024 we meet New Years Honour recipient Rose Henderson, who was appointed an Officer of the New Zealand Order of Merit (ONZM) for her services to social work and health. We also catch up with Minister of Health Dr Shane Reti and Minister for Mental Health Matt Doocey, who both visited Christchurch recently to view facilities and meet staff.

As we head towards Waitangi Day we hear from two of our local Māori health leaders with their reflections on what Te Tiriti means to them, and pay a visit to Waiata Wednesdays – a great way to learn and enjoy te reo.

We spend One Minute With Amy Walker, Recruitment Partner, and learn about a new initiative from the Community Occupational Therapists in the Older Persons Health and Rehabilitation Community Therapy Service. There’s also a bumper crop of whakamihi | bouquets from users of our services.
