What have your experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system been like?
When we asked expats and global nomads in New Zealand about their experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system, they replied...
"The pandemic has had a significant impact on the healthcare system in New Zealand. The government has implemented a range of measures to ensure the safety of patients and healthcare workers, including the introduction of contact tracing, testing, and isolation protocols. The healthcare system has also been stretched to its limits, with hospitals and clinics facing unprecedented demand for services. Despite the challenges, the healthcare system has responded quickly and effectively to the pandemic, providing timely and quality care to those in need. The government has also provided additional funding to support the healthcare system, allowing it to continue to provide essential services," remarked another expat who made the move to New Zealand.
