About us Mō mātou
The Health Quality & Safety Commission Te Tāhū Hauora is a Crown Agent that monitors quality and safety across the health system.
We work with other government agencies, health providers, professional bodies and consumers to improve safety and quality.
Our goal is quality health for all New Zealanders.
We provide insights, expert advice, data and intelligence.
We strengthen patient feedback systems, build sector capability to learn from harm, support clinical governance and review mortality to reduce avoidable deaths.
Through our work we reduce the number of people harmed, save lives, and generate financial savings in the health sector.
