Personal Protective Equipment

The safety of our members is hugely important to us and we assure you that this is a top priority. MOH has created national guidelines & supply chain across both primary and secondary healthcare. MOH has also provided PPE guidelines for those working directly with patients with COVID-19 and guidelines for community care workers. All DHBs should have their PPE policies updated and live on their intranet sites.

If you have any questions or concerns about the use or availability or PPE in your workplace please get in touch support@stonz.co.nz
