A109 Light Utility Helicopter flight with mayor Gisborne City from the air in November 2023.

A109 Light Utility Helicopter flight with mayor Gisborne City from the air in November 2023.

Am I missing something regarding the pending demolition of the “Old Maternity Base Hospital”?

Correct me if I am wrong, but to my knowledge there has been no mention of the old “Geriatric Unit” that was on the 3rd floor.

We were a great team of nurses, who worked tirelessly in caring for the elderly — many of whom were parents or grandparents within our community.

Without modern-day equipment, we ensured that the best of care was given to our patients.

Do we not deserve a mention? We were definitely part of that bygone era.
