About Health New Zealand | Whanganui

Modern facilities, modern equipment, modern thinking and the opportunity to make a real difference are four good reasons why our staff enjoy working for Health NZ - Te Whatu Ora Whanganui. We're an organisation which 'punches well above its weight' within New Zealand's healthcare sector. Whanganui Hospital is situated on the West Coast of New Zealand’s North Island within easy access of Wellington and central North Island volcanoes. Whanganui Hospital has a wide range of services with general medicine, general surgery, orthopaedics, O&G, ENT, ophthalmology, dental and psychiatry included. The Emergency Department has approximately 20,000 presentations each year (including paediatrics) and an admission rate of around 30 percent due to a co-located acute care facility. The department is well equipped with a 5-bed short stay ward and performs a range of ED-based procedures including manipulations and cardioversions under sedation. Our Critical Care Unit caters for the majority of our intubated patients, with further support and other specialties provided by Palmerston North Hospital and tertiary care at Wellington Hospital. With regular teaching events and the ability to work alongside Specialists who are leaders in their field, why would you consider anywhere else? Whanganui's location on the historically significant and beautiful Whanganui River, and close proximity to the mountains, makes it ideal for tramping, skiing, fishing and a variety of outdoor adventure pursuits. Whanganui proudly boasts a heritage rich in arts and culture, and excellent educational and sports training facilities. We offer a relaxed lifestyle, affordable housing, an easy commute to work, and an easy two-and-a-half hour drive from our capital city, Wellington. Whatever your interests, Whanganui can offer the best of both worlds – the perfect work opportunity, and a lifestyle to match.
