Excellent care at Tauranga Hospital

Recently Tauranga Hospital confirmed my worst suspicions about New Zealand's health system. That is, most of what we hear about it is negative, whereas most of what happens is good but we don't hear about it.

After 10 days in various departments of Tauranga Hospital I can honestly say their care was excellent. So often staff went out of their way, including orderlies, cleaners, physiotherapists, nurses, doctors and more. Their expertise, encouragement, patience, humour, good food and TLC greatly helped me.

Since my stays I've been equally impressed with the Transit Lounge (for patients being discharged), the St John shuttle service, and the district nurses.

How about more appreciation for our hard-working, talented, devoted healthcare workers?
