The CCN (Canterbury Clinical Network) is seeking consumers to contribute their experiences, knowledge, ideas and perspectives to the Primary Care Taskforce and associated subgroups of work.

A survey has been created to gather thoughts from rangatahi / young people about improvements they would like to see made to sexual and reproductive health services in Waitaha / Canterbury.

A project which brings consumers and health providers together to co-design a new model of care for people with chronic pain held a wānanga – a forum to observe, listen and learn – last month.

More than 90 percent of Aged Residential Care (ARC) facilities across the South Island are now key players in the Health Connect South (HCS) / HealthOne (H1) space, which allows ARC teams to access their residents’ shared electronic care records.

Members from a range of Canterbury’s health consumer groups connected face-to-face last month, in the first stage of a plan to strengthen connection across groups and amplify the consumer voice across health and wellbeing services.

With the official arrival of summer, many of us are gearing up for a well-deserved break with whānau and friends.

For our tamariki (children), experiencing emotion, processing how it makes them feel and figuring out how to manage those feelings is a big learning curve. That’s why Mana Ake – Stronger for Tomorrow has been providing support not just for children, but for the whānau (family) who support them, and it’s proved a big hit.

CCN is proud to share that Shared Care Planning Programme Lead and Product Manager Rebecca Muir will be presenting at Digital Health Week New Zealand 2022 in Rotorua next month.
