Nationwide Health and Disability Advocacy Service is a free service provided under the Health and Disability Commissioner Act 1994.
We work within the Code of Health and Disability Services Consumers’ Rights which are embedded in New Zealand law.
Our advocates are throughout New Zealand and available to talk to people about resolving problems they may have had with their health or disability care.
We provide free educations to health care providers on the History of the Advocacy service and the Code of Rights.
