New Zealand Hip Fest 2022: From Rehab to Home Wellington, NZ

New Zealand's 3rd annual Hip Fest education day was held in beautiful Wellington on 7th September.

The Hip Festival is a chance for hospital teams caring for people after a fractured hip and contributing to the ANZHFR to gather, network, share and learn about different models of care and improvement projects across New Zealand.

This year’s theme was “Rehab to Home” with our biggest group of 80 participants. It was a great day, where speakers discussed effective rehabilitation care and support, both in hospital and in the community. The consumer voice was also heard from two of the NZHFR committee’s consumer representatives, who shared their different experiences of care, despite having the same injury and surgery.  For the clinicians, hearing the consumer voice was very powerful and generated much discussion.

Thanks to all those who came along to the Hip Fest! We look forward to future opportunities to join together to improve hip fracture care.

Video recordings of the presentations are now available:
