Micky is a quality advisor at Hutt Hospital.
During March, Micky and his team created Hutt Hospital's Kōrero Service.
"People can use Kōrero to send a free card to a family or friend in Hutt Hospital," said Micky. "The team created it to help patients, especially the elderly, stay connected with their whānau during the lockdown."
"We had a huge uptake after launching. People from all around the country and even some from overseas were using Kōrero. Many users were grandchildren sending messages to their grandparents in hospital."
"It was such a privilege helping to connect patients with their loved ones. I enjoyed watching the patients’ faces light-up after receiving a card from their family."

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
