Visitor Guidance for Counties Manukau Health
At Counties Manukau Health, our patients’ health and wellbeing is our number one priority.
That includes making sure they get enough rest.
To enable high-quality care, and for the overall health of our patients, we must balance the needs of our patients and visitors.
To achieve this we have introduced flexible visiting. This means:
● One key support person who may visit between 8am – 8pm
● Overnight visiting (8pm – 8am) – compassionate grounds only
● Visiting hours for whaanau are 2pm - 8pm – two visitors per patient
● No children under 16 years – unless approved on compassionate grounds
● Take away food for patients must not be brought onto the premises
● Registration of visitors will occur at hospital entrances
We ask if you are unwell, do not visit.

What workplace change would you like to see most?
This coming Monday is Labour Day in New Zealand. This public holiday marks when the eight-hour workday and 48-hour workweek became law in 1899. The idea started with Samuel Parnell, a carpenter in Wellington, who in 1840 refused to work more than eight hours a day. Since skilled workers were in short supply, his employer had to agree.
As more skilled workers arrived, employers tried to change working conditions, but Parnell and others kept pushing for better rights. In 1890, Parnell led a Labour Day parade of 1,500 people to promote the eight-hour day. He passed away shortly after, and nine years later, Labour Day became an official public holiday.
