This month Te Whatu Ora will launch the next phase of its service access campaign to improve access to health advice and care and to help manage the impact of respiratory illnesses on the health sector over the winter period. The public messaging will focus on encouraging people to access the right services for them and stay home when sick, and supporting referrals for the healthy homes initiative for those who are eligible.
The Measles Awareness Campaign began in May and will include two phases of activity: targeting returning travellers from overseas and a "national check" targeting vaccinations. The Measles Toolkit has been updated and includes posters, brochures, social media tiles, and key messages for your use.
Te Pae Tata was launched by the health minister in Taupō last week. It is the first New Zealand Health Plan published under the new Pae Ora legislation.
