I often research our ever changing Healthcare/Providers and Medicine and I absolutely love this site, Healthify!!

It's super easy to navigate and there's plenty of information and resources that are simple to understand for those managing their health at home with answers to our ever-common questions.
It's great to know and be up to date with changes in regards to the medical side, eg if supply for a common medication is in low stock, an the reasoning why, so don't be alarmed.
I am impressed and I will be recommending this website to whānau and friends.

I have enjoyed scrolling through and reading about different topics.
I would like to suggest that we have a section of Swahili resources that our refugees from Congo can be able to read. I work for Te Whatu Ora Southern as an interpreter and this would be a useful tool for the new community that is growing down here.
Kind regards

When I’m looking up something for a patient, I cut and paste that link of Healthify and email it to the patient whilst they are in my consultation.

I then have a catchphrase, “Don’t Google it – Healthify it!

Healthify is my 'go-to place' to send people for great information and self-management support.

I recently used Healthify, and I was genuinely impressed by how simple and efficient the website is. The information provided is not only true but also extensive, covering a wide range of health topics. Navigating through the website was brilliant and straightforward. I would definitely recommend Healthify to anyone looking for reliable health information and self-help resources.

Kia ora Healthify Team,
I am writing on behalf of Mangere Health Centre to express our profound appreciation and gratitude for the invaluable resources and services provided by your website. As a Very Low-Cost Access (VLCA) practice serving over 7,500 Pacific and Māori patients, we have found Healthify to be an indispensable tool in our mission to deliver accessible and high-quality healthcare information.
One of the standout features of your website is the inclusion of pictures, which are particularly beneficial for our patients for whom English is a second language. Visual aids significantly enhance comprehension and ensure that critical health information is accessible to all.
Moreover, the ease of navigation on your website, with clearly defined sections and clickable links, has made it incredibly user-friendly. The availability of multiple language options further underscores your commitment to inclusivity and accessibility, which aligns perfectly with our practice’s values.
We regularly utilise Healthify’s information and links on our Facebook page, and it has become a consistent feature in our monthly newsletter. The relevance and reliability of the content you provide are unmatched, and it is always up to date with the latest health information that is crucial for our practice.
It is imperative for our patients to source their health information from legitimate websites, and Healthify stands out in this regard. Other websites often prove to be difficult to navigate or lack the user-friendly interface that Healthify offers. Your website ticks all the boxes for accessible and relatable information, making it our go-to resource for both patients and staff.
Additionally, the downloadable resources available on your site are a tremendous asset. These resources are not only informative but also freely accessible, which is a significant advantage for our practice and our patients.
In conclusion, we highly endorse Healthify as an essential resource for our patients and staff. Your website has made a substantial impact on our ability to provide comprehensive and accessible healthcare information, and we look forward to continuing to utilise your services.
Thank you for your dedication to improving health literacy and for being a trusted partner in our healthcare journey.

Your website is wonderful, easy to use/navigate and uses everyday language. It's a gem and helps so many people. I want to support it continue.

Keep up the good work!

Disability friendly – I'm legally blind and I found this website so much easier to use than others. It has consistent page design and layout, nice font size and easy-to-read coloured text.

This resource is absolutely invaluable, with reliable, evidence based, easily accessible and understandable information, with the very important added benefit of being NZ-centric.

As a GP I find Healthify invaluable for my practice. Patients value having NZ specific, clear health information to support their own management. For specific conditions show the patient the relevant page then I cut and paste the URL to text to them to read at home. Highly recommend.

Healthify is an invaluable tool for sharing information with patients. The information is stated in plane and easy to understand language for patients, and many patients have commented on how value the information is.

Thank you for your work, the info provided has been so helpful and detailed and the website is so easy to navigate. Keep up the great work!

Thanks for a fantastic resource. I love it because there are so many links to explore. Especially love the wellbeing and sleep kete.

A taonga – a hugely valuable resource – everyone should be using Healthify.

The team at HNCT do amazing work. Great to see that recognised. #happyorange

Fabulous website used on a daily basis multiple times
Would be helpful if you could have the url or link to the videos when you print out yhr info for patients
Great valuable resource thank you

Healthify has been an invaluable resource for me as a nurse. I am often bringing Healthify up on my screen and sending a link to patients. I find it so helpful for explaining elevated cholesterol and managing pre diabetes, for example. It's an awesome resource!

I have the tab open at the start of the day and I probably use it 100 times a day.

As a Well Child Nurse this resource is invaluable, I share it on email to all my new client's and frequently refer to it during visits, practical, easy to read and the tools like the paracetamol calculator are so useful to my families

Other websites often prove to be difficult to navigate or lack the user-friendly interface that Healthify offers. Your website ticks all the boxes for accessible and relatable information, making it our go-to resource for both patients and staff.

Healthify is an invaluable resource in Primary Care. We use this as the first source of information for patients as it is locally relevant information. This makes our jobs of informing patients a bout their condition much easier and saves time.

Great patient resources and more effective than paper based pamphlets. lots of links and information for special groups that don't often make it to a general paper based resource - ie maori /pacific men diabetes, paracetamol dosing calculators, mental health resources for different demographics and ages. Very good patient resources on medications which we send to our patients in link form in a text when we start antibiotics, new meds etc

Healthify is a lifesaver!

Hi there, we all love using Healthify in our pharmacy - just ordered some more wallet cards for our staff to use when talking to patients about their health and their medicines.
Thank you for such an awesome resource!

'Genuinely impressed. The information provided is not only true, but also extensive – covering a wide range of health topics. Navigating through the website was brilliant and straightforward."

Kiaora Healthify he Puna Waiora.

I have a lived experience of an amputated leg for 37 years. I have been in several non-profit organisations over the those years. Healthify He Puna Waiora pretty much meets all those needs; a great hub for all health and disability needs, a great network.
Recently I referred my extended family to this beautiful resource to become familiar with a mental illness of a family member. Mental Illness is a sensitive topic still finding its way to be normalized. A few family members are new to mental illness. By accessing Healthify they can become familiar in their time and at their pace in their comfort zone. I have great respect for this beautiful resource. I've given a one off donation recently. When I get through my recovery from a very recent surgery, I will donate on a more regular basis and I would love to volunteer. Me kii, tenei te Poka puu e whakakao mai i nga koorero mo te ora o te tangata, mo te ora te haapori. (let me say that this is the hub that collates all the resources into one place for the well-being for all people for all communities. Tenei te mihi atu ki a koe Healthify He Puna Waiora. Paimaarire.

Kia Ora as a busy Maori wahine that provides beauty services this help us gain extra knowledge about our clients medication that may affect their treatments. We refer our clients to Healthify for all of their health needs as sometimes our takuta may not explain everything in depth. This has been a very useful tool that has been introduced into our Reigon by Fran King from Tuturu Consultancy.

I personally use this to know what my medication can do to my body and how it helps my medical conditions. Nga mihi from Te Tairawhiti.

As a practice nurse in primary care I use the Healthify website and its resources on a daily basis. I find the information incredibly useful for my patients. It is a great source of easy to understand health information. I often send links to my patients to reinforce the information I have discussed face to face. I also value the video content that shows patients how to adminster medications - such as inhaler technique.

Wow,
your info on my condition has put me at ease, I do now understand so a lot of negative thoughts on what could be have going on. I am now empowered with just enough knowledge to be ok thru the next steps, I am now sure will be not half as bad as I thought.

Thanks for a brilliant resource, my go-to for whai ora and for my own health questions.

"A great hub for all health and disability needs. Recently I referred my extended family to this beautiful resource to become familiar with a mental illness of a family member."

As a nurse practitioner (NP), improving patient self efficacy through improved health knowledge/literacy is an important aspect of my work, (along with the full range of primary health care and management services NPs provide, from assessment and diagnosis through to investigations, full authorised prescribing rights (like a GP).)

I frequently show my patients this website during consultations, refer ring them to relevant pages and letting them know this is a good site for all their health questions. (I have over 1200 registered patients).

This resource is absolutely invaluable, with reliable, evidence based, easily accessible and understandable information, with the very important added benefit of being NZ-entric.

Love it!!

Great website with videos to support patients with self management but could you kindly remove the video on use of salbutamol as it shows the patient using it directly without a spacer and we are trying very hard to discourage that as it is not as effective as using a spacer with the salbutamol. Otherwise an excellent resource. Thanks for all the hard mahi that goes into it.

Our clinic loves sharing Healthify links to our patients. It's a trusted link, good information and easy to follow guide.
