"What do users say about Emergency Q?"

“When the EQ team first came to us, I thought 5 less patients a day would be a success, little did I know we would soon see 45 less on our busy days.”

Dr Willem Landman
Clinical Director, Emergency Department, Waitemata DHB, NZ

“Since Emergency Q started it feels like the level of verbal abuse has dropped significantly... even if people choose to stay they tend not to be angry about the wait as we have offered them an alternative and they can see the wait time on the screen.”

Lana Temara
Senior Nurse, Middlemore Hospital, NZ

“Emergency Q saved our bacon last winter.”

Dr Jeremy Dryden
Clinical Head, Emergency Department, Middlemore Hospital, NZ
