Health

New Zealanders have access to an enviable choice of comprehensive healthcare services. Yet we are in need of the professionals who provide this care, with areas of shortage across the sector.

Advances in technology are constantly changing the face of healthcare in New Zealand. North Shore hospital boasts one of the leading centres for cardiac MRI in Australasia, while Auckland City Hospital is a showcase of the latest medical technology such as electronic medical records, networked patient monitoring systems and digital patient imaging.

Whether your interest is primary or specialist care, you will have access to a wide range of resources, world-leading technology, and a range of career opportunities.
