About Us

More than one million people in New Zealand will need emergency care each year and almost all of us will require some sort of emergency care at some point in our lifetimes! Medical emergencies are usually sudden, urgent and unexpected.  Medical emergencies can affect anybody at any time.

We must be prepared!

Being prepared requires knowledge of the nature of these emergencies and their optimal treatments.  To date there has been limited research undertaken into the many facets of emergency health care, leaving many important questions unanswered of both a medical and administrative nature.

The Emergency Care Foundation (established in 2003), provides vital funding for equipment and research into improved accuracy and better decision making in emergency care.  The Foundation relies on donations, grants and fundraising.

We are raising funds to support Research, Education & Innovation in Emergency Medicine.

20% of every membership sold, contributes directly to our fundraising.

Help us achieve our goal by sharing this link with your family and friends!

Don’t forget you can purchase any one of the 21 Entertainment memberships, available throughout New Zealand, Australia & Bali, and we retain 20% from every membership sold, for our fundraising.

Thanks for your support, Alieke and the team at the Emergency Care Foundation.
