How do we advocate?
Ka pēhea tā mātou wawao?
NZATS supports trainee and registered anaesthetic technicians to be represented both locally and nationally. By raising awareness of our role and skills, we promote this Allied Health profession as a viable career path. We are integral to the future workforce training and maintenance of high clinical standards of practice, congruent with the ANZCA Professional Documents.
NZATS lobby politicians and the Ministry of Health to support of the growth of the future healthcare workforce, to be highly flexible and focused on high quality interprofessional practice for optimal patient safety and patient-centered care.
We maintain strong ties with our affiliated organisations, such as NZSA, ANZCA and MSC.
