Graeme's cameo appearance on national television


'60 Minutes' aired on schedule last week in New Zealand, and we were deeply impacted by the integrity and professionalism of the piece. Not only did they get what we do correct, they really captured the essence of why we do what we do! In addition to the edited version of the US documentary, another eight minutes of interviews with New Zealand nurses was added and it became a 25 minutes feature - and played twice on PRIME in one week!

How about popping on the kettle, making a cuppa and watching it right here? It's really worth the look - unbiased  I know! Just scroll down the page till you see it  (if you only want to see the second chapter with the Kiwis nurses then begin at minute 10).

Did I mention that Graeme features towards the end? There are some strict confidentiality regulations about filming in New Zealand hospitals which they required his help to overcome  ... I guess  you'll just  have to watch it, and I'm sure we'll get another influx of cheeky emails from those who have!

The next project for us is Mercy by Moonlight; an evening cruise event we are conducting in May. We'll tell you more about that soon ..........
