Ayesha Verrall: I'm determined to address the pressures in our health system

The Health Minister says they're working on health system pressures - but won't call it a crisis.

A Te Whatu Ora staff survey, leaked to RNZ, reveals staff are feeling under-resourced and undervalued.

Earlier this week, figures showed nearly 5000 New Zealand nurses had registered to work in Australia.

Health Minister Ayesha Verrall says there are nurses leaving, but there are also nurses coming in.

"We also just had 900 new registrations come through in the last month alone."
