IT Takes A
Village
Supporting your clients wellbeing
beyond your 4 walls of your clinic
Wednesday 8th April
2009 6-8pm
Victory Community Centre, Totara
Street, Nelson
There will be up to 50
different Community Health/Wellness Providers
informing others about the work they do in the Nelson
Tasman region.
 More and more, the evidence shows that
the best health outcomes are achieved when a holistic
view of health is taken, biomedical as well as
psychosocial. We have often heard from Primary
Health
Care Nurses that there is never enough time for
networking with the community providers who could
potentially support their clients beyond the walls of
their general practices.
This will be a perfect opportunity to
meet these providers, collect resources, hear about how
they may be able to support your clients out in the
community and meet with other providers working
in
Primary Health Care.
