Thank you for doing your part to slow the spread this long weekend. It was awesome to see so many people taking precautions in the community by wearing masks and keeping distance from others.
Even though we’ve changed to the Orange light, there are no changes to our visitor policy at the hospital. Thank you for your patience. Read the guidance on our website: https://www.hauoratairawhiti.org.nz/your-health/covid-2/
