Increased demand reason for weak power supply that delayed baby unit
Kia ora neighbours, a decision to delay the opening of a new special care baby unit at Waitākere Hospital had to be made as increased demand at the hospital meant the power supply wasn’t strong enough to keep it running.
The new unit was officially opened on June 15 in a ceremony with ministers, staff and stakeholders, but babies and their parents are yet to enter the building.
In emails obtained under the Official Information Act, Te Whatu Ora Waitematā (previously Waitematā DHB) said the new unit would now open on August 17.
