Presented by Dean Cowles in conjunction with Mobile Health. Check out his profile at https://myhealthhub.co.nz/project/dean-cowles/

Dean’s clinical background is in clinical education, theatre, PACU and public health. He has spent most of his nursing career in the public sector and made the move into private healthcare three years ago. Dean currently works as the Māori Nurse Advisor, within the Nursing Directorate, for Southern Cross Healthcare. Dean is motivated to inspire transformational change for Māori patients & whānau who enter the private sector. Part of this is collaborating with key stakeholders across the country to re-indigenise the way in which healthcare is provided. “These are exciting times where we have the unique opportunity to harness cultural and clinical capability to influence change”.
