CEO Meets Politicians Including Health Minister, Hon Dr Shane Reti

HCHA CEO Lisa Foster had the chance to meet with politicians as part of Rare Disease Day 2024 at Parliament on 28 February 2024. Rare Disorders NZ released a white paper to evidence the needs and highlight the benefits of proactive policy.

Lisa said "Great to connect with Hon Dr Shane Reti, Hon Matt Doocey, Hon David Seymour and Hon Peeni Henare and have good conversations about the importance of home and community care services as an essential part of integrated and comprehensive care delivered closer to home...plus its value to prevent the need for more expensive and stressful interventions such as hospital admissions".
