We also deliver the National Heart and Lung Transplant service on behalf of the entire New Zealand population, encompassing Organ Donation NZ and Transplant Recipient Coordination.
Our commitment is to the highest levels of clinical quality and providing the best standards of personalised care possible to our patients in line with Auckland DHB’s four key values – Welcome, Respect, Together and Aim High.
We offer an environment where patient centred care and team work are prioritised and valued. We support this with a commitment to our staff of developing their skills and knowledge, including rotational working. We provide excellent professional development opportunities and on-going education along with the opportunity to apply for subsidised relevant postgraduate education.
We are a dynamic, innovative team of professionals who collaborate and work together to help each other succeed in our roles while provide top quality patient care.
