Providing and supporting primary health care services in the Nelson Bays region

When was the last time you visited your GP?

Like most people, you were probably there to see a doctor or nurse. But you may not realise that your general practice can also connect you with a wide range of services designed to support your physical health, mental wellbeing, and overall quality of life.

Matariki marks the beginning of the Māori New Year—a time to pause, reflect on the year that has passed, celebrate the people who enrich our lives, and look ahead with hope for the future.

Nelson Bays Primary Health welcomes the outcome of the latest PSAAP negotiations, which reflect important progress in recognising the cost pressures facing general practice and the critical role of primary care in our health system.

Nelson Bays Primary Health (NBPH), Marlborough Primary Health, and Te Tauihu Iwi have successfully secured a partnership with the University of Waikato to establish the New Zealand Graduate School of Medicine, marking a significant step toward addressing workforce shortages and improving access to care across the region.
