New Zealand’s biggest killer

Kiwis are dying because New Zealand’s healthcare system is failing them.

New Zealand lags behind international standards of care when it comes to timely cardiac tests and surgeries. This stems from major issues facing the sector including shortage of beds and surgical teams, to lack of investment in essential equipment.

Kia Manawanui Trust - The Heart of Aotearoa is here to advocate for better heart care by addressing systemic issues to provide better health outcomes for those living with heart disease.
