Yearly helicopter landing data for five major hospitals from 2015 to 2025
John made this Official Information request to Health New Zealand
This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for John to read recent responses and update the status.
From: John
To whom it may concern at Te Whatu Ora - Health New Zealand,
I am requesting that the following information be released under the Official Information Act 1982.
(If all the information cannot be readily accessed, can whatever information that is readily accessible be provided as soon as possible? Can I be notified if refined search parameters are required?)
The annual numbers of landings at the helipads for each of the following five hospitals.
1. Auckland Hospital
2. Waikato Hospital
3. Wellington Regional Hospital
4. Christchurch Hospital
5. Dunedin Hospital
Can the yearly totals for each year between 2015 and 2025 be provided for each of the five hospitals.
Is there data on the type of emergency or medical event/condition associated for each landing which is available as yearly totals for categories such as cardiac arrest, traffic collision, stoke, etc?
Can your organisation supply the above data in tables containing yearly totals for each medical category for helicopter arrivals at each of the five hospitals?
Can the above data be provided for yearly totals for each year between 2015 and 2025, for each of the five hospitals and for each medical event/condition category routinely recorded?
Sincerely,
John
