    New employment figures show employment is rising in healthcare

    New employment figures show employment is rising in healthcare


    Stats NZ says the health workforce has increased 5.5 percent in the past year.

    But Nurses Organisation Chief Executive, Paul Goulter , says it's only a drop in the bucket.

    He says more must be done to address continued large shortages, and the health system is in a woeful state.
