Providing Vital Services to our Northland Community – How Northern Districts Security Supports North Haven Hospice
As a locally owned and operated Northland business, Northern Districts Security is proud to support North Haven Hospice. As a community charity, North Haven Hospice is reliant upon donations and the earnings from their Hospices shops across Northland for funding for the vital end-of-life services they provide.
North Haven Hospice cares for hundreds of patients requiring end-of-life care across Northland, as well as offering support to their whanau. As Northern Districts Security CEO JP Dignon explains, Hospice is “Such a vital service for our community. Although we might not need it now, we may need it, and there’s always someone that does need it.”
For several years now, Northern Districts Security has supported North Haven Hospice by providing a wide range of security services, both at a discounted rate and 100% sponsored. We’re very proud to enable to North Haven Hospice’s teams of nurses and volunteers to carry out their vital work by providing the following services.
Guard Patrols, Free of Charge:
When electricity is restored, a sudden surge can damage sensitive electronics and appliances. Make sure to unplug electronics during a power cut, and use surge protective outlets or extension leads to minimise risk. It’s also a good idea to turn off all lights, appliances, or electronics during a power cut – but leaving one light on can be a useful indicator of when power has been restored!
Blood tests are essential for North Haven Hospice to provide the highest quality of care to their patients, and time is a crucial factor. Blood samples and tests must be transported efficiently and safely, which is why North Haven Hospice trusts Northern Districts Security’s secure courier service to collect and deliver them. Our couriers ensure that the samples are handled with extreme care and arrive where they’re required intact and on-time.
North Haven Hospice’s retail shops and fundraising efforts across Northland are a vital source of funding, which is why it’s essential that the money made in these shops goes where it’s needed, and not into the hands of opportunistic criminals. That’s why North Haven Hospice utilises Northern Districts Security’s secure courier services to make sure their cash is deposited safely and securely.
As with any medical organisation, North Haven Hospice deal with a great deal of paperwork – all of which contain sensitive information and private details about their patients. When this paperwork is no longer required, it’s important that their confidential information remains confidential – which is why North Haven Hospice trusts Northern Districts Security’s professional document destruction services to dispose of their data efficiently and safely.
