Dudley Creek Health is a specialist point-of-care facility on Papanui Road, Christchurch, offering hand, wrist and elbow specialist services, imaging, and specialist facilities for hire. As a health information custodian, the organisation holds sensitive patient data that demands the highest standard of protection.
The Challenge
Dudley Creek Health had grown without a structured IT approach. Devices were unmanaged, there was no formal backup strategy, and the organisation had no documented compliance position under the NZ Privacy Act 2020 or the Health Information Privacy Code — creating real risk in the event of a data incident or audit.

- Full IT audit and risk assessment
- Microsoft 365 Business Premium with MFA and email security
- SentinelOne endpoint protection across all devices
- Immutable cloud backup for all patient records
- 24/7 managed monitoring via Optimyze SOC
- NZ Privacy Act 2020 and Health Information Privacy Code compliance programme
The Outcome
Patient data at Dudley Creek Health is now encrypted, backed up, and monitored around the clock. The organisation has documented compliance controls in place and a trusted IT partner for all day-to-day support needs.
