About Us

The 1990s witnessed a change in Health Service Provision in New Zealand, midwives became autonomous practitioners and CHOICES was born. We were formally registered as Kahungunu Health Services Charitable Trust on 10 November 1995, but we are more commonly known within the community as ‘Choices.’
