My name is Ted and we have been running a SPCA goods donation through the month of August to give back to the dogs and cats looking for their forever homes.
We have collected a box filled with blankets, pet collars, towels, toys and food bowls!
Thank you to the whole team for your donations which will be donated to the Hobsonville Point SPCA. Helping those who cannot help themselves!
For Daffodil Day this year, we had a Fundraising Morning Tea. Everyone brought in some goodies and a donation and Nitrogenx will be matching whatever we raise!

COVID-19 has hit the poor of Phnom Penh hard, with most struggling with the basics even before the pandemic upended their lives. The families you help live in a precarious place on the edge of society and most have lost their meagre daily income sources. This means that medical issues are left untended, living situations are more cramped as families move in together to save rent, and usual illnesses take a greater toll on those who are even less nourished than ever. When you partner with Nitrogenx, you step in and bring about very real and practical solutions to these harrowing issues. You are free medical assistance and advice right within the communities most at risk. You are feeding the poor. You are giving milk to babies who are failing to thrive. You are giving these kids hope.
Your mobile medical team consists of paediatric final year student Sothy (L) and GP Rithy (R).Together they visit 8 urban communities in the Mobile Medical yellow van you can see behind them. They do free consolations and offer free basic medication and are a practical demonstration of humanitarian care among the most marginalised communities in the capital of Cambodia. The pair saw about 200 patients between January and February, but from March were strictly prohibited from visiting communities. They did however distribute hand sanitiser to 700 at risk individuals. Their tertiary studies have both continued online. Recently Sothy has been learning to do ultrasounds and Rithy has been doing up to 8 hour night shifts in hospital as well as studying online during the day for his OBGYN specialisation. Rithy has taken on a personal research program to try and identify new at risk communities where the need is greatest for hand sanitiser and food. They are doing their best in very constrained circumstances.
Life is less restricted than a lot of countries but the government in an attempt to avoid a second wave has declared that schools will possibly remain closed until the end of the year. Despite education across the country grinding to a standstill, you are managing to keep engagement with the kids and their parents, helping with emergencies and maintaining regular contact. This takes the form of monthly food parcels and our social work team monitoring the 58 Flame families closely, jumping in when necessary to keep the families afloat.
In January 2020, Chinese authorities confirmed a new type of coronavirus, known as 2019-nCoV.
Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses that can cause respiratory illnesses such as the common
cold. In some cases, the viruses can cause lower-respiratory tract illnesses such as pneumonia and
bronchitis.
The first and foremost way to prevent unwanted disease and minimise the risk of disease
transmission is effective medical waste disposal. All staff from Healthcare services are equally
responsible in housekeeping. Effective housekeeping can decrease the infection to a great level. It
also reduces spreading of bacteria and microorganisms.
The advantages of effective biohazard waste removal include the creation of a healthy atmosphere
that is free of microbes that minimise the risk of infection to staff, visitors and other people,
removing bad odours and reduction of fleas and insects.
Without effective disposal of medical waste, disease may easily spread to staff, visitors and patients
that could make them more ill after leaving the facility.
The good thing is waste disposal company could provide you with government approved containers,
take responsibility in managing the waste in the containers, properly disposing medical waste and
replacing the containers when needed.
Nitrogenx provides a complete door-to-door medical waste management service from supply to
disposal of medical waste bins and bags for Medical, Dental, Specialists, Veterinary and Aged Care
facilities plus a range of other healthcare professionals and HomeCare patients. We operate in
accordance to New Zealand Standard 4304:2002 Management of Healthcare Waste.

Well, the Westpac judges certainly did.”
