We're loving getting to know the latest and greatest addition to our world-class Cardiovascular team: Kahi.
Kahi is the Māori name gifted to SimMan 3G Critical Care – one of the world's most realistic simulation manikins – which has been funded by donations, including a major gift from The Lion Foundation.
SimMan 3G allows the team to train for every life-threatening scenario in a risk-free "real-life" setting, and everyone is immensely grateful and excited to learn.
Kahi has been making a difference since the day he arrived, with nurses shocked at how "high-tech and impressive" he is, especially compared to their previous 10-year-old "rapidly deteriorating" manikin. "
"Kahi has so many tricks up his sleeve; he will do great things for our team and teams across New Zealand, for many years to come."
We look forward to sharing more about Kahi's impact – with all his human features and functions – and we hope to continue improving our simulation capabilities with your ongoing support.

You can help our hospital help you.
Your support will help Auckland City Hospital’s teams do even more for patients and whānau in their care, beyond what government funding can provide.
