The Hastings Health Centre  has just started a new Long Term Conditions programme for our patients.

Long-term conditions are things like diabetes, COPD, arthritis, heart disease or depression and unlike other diseases, a lot of the things that can be done to make people as healthy as possible once you have these conditions, are things you need to do for yourself. 


So our new service aims to help you do these things by giving you the information and resources you need.


We can work with patients and their whanau individually at HHC or in your home, and we have an ongoing programme of  groups where we look at various aspects of illness, medications, and how best to live the healthiest life possible. 


The programme has just started so we will be updating  this website regularly as things change.
