Three years ago, Kinetik Wellbeing launched in New Zealand through Green Cross Health to provide clinically validated medical devices, helping people monitor their health from home. Recognising the significant health disparities between rural and urban populations, we are now excited to announce our new partnership with Hauora Taiwhenua Rural Health Network to provide essential home use medical devices to rural homes in need.
Their vision of healthy and thriving rural communities, combined with our mission to empower health at home has driven us to collaborate on the philanthropic project, “Health in every Rural Home”. This initiative aims to benefit rural whānau by providing price competitive medical devices, helping improve health and wellbeing in rural New Zealand communities.
“We have always been passionate about empowering health at home – in every home. This partnership with Hauora Taiwhenua Rural Health Network is an exciting step towards improving rural health in New Zealand. We hope this initiative will ensure more people have access to the health devices they need to live long and healthy lives.” said James Grover, CEO of Kinetik Wellbeing.
Dr Grant Davidson, Chief Executive of Hauora Taiwhenua says “The health and wellbeing of our rural communities lies in equitable access to medical care and support. Being able to provide quick and easy access to quality home-use medical devices will allow our rural whānau to be active in improving and monitoring their health conditions. We are delighted to find a partner that shares not just our vision but champions the philanthropic basis of this service.”
Dr. Jeremy Webber, Clinical Director Rural Health added:
“This is a great philanthropic opportunity for Hauora Taiwhenua. Being able to uplift rural communities by assisting in the distribution of Kinetik’s home medical devices has real potential to increase the health and wellbeing of our rural whānau.”
