Support Hospice Care with Dilmah tea.

Support Hospice Care with Dilmah tea.
Each promotional packet donates 50c to Hospice NZ.
The wonderful team at Dilmah have been supporting Hospice care for over 25 years.
Every Hospice that’s a member of Hospice NZ, including the Nurse Maude Hospice in Christchurch, is supplied with free tea for their patients, whānau, friends and staff, last year that was 400,000 teabags. The small comforts that come with a cup of tea, can make the world of difference.
Nurse Maude is trialling Starlink satellite internet to support staff working in some of New Zealand’s most remote and rugged regions. With limited or no mobile coverage in areas such as Golden Bay, the service is being tested to improve real-time access to clinical systems for frontline staff delivering home and community care. Currently, a Case Manager based in Nelson is piloting the technology while working in low signal zones across the district. The trial includes exploring different setups - from mounting the Starlink dish to the roof racks of Nurse Maude vehicles, to positioning it on the parcel tray inside the car. A 12-volt adapter allows the unit to be powered through a standard vehicle cigarette lighter, meaning the connection can be deployed almost anywhere with a clear view of the sky.
