Ever wondered what Crowd Care actually is at events? 👀🎉

Crowd Care (yep — the intox team) is the crew on the ground keeping an eye on the vibes and making sure anyone who’s had a bit 'too much fun' gets the right support. They’re the friendly faces helping people cool off, rehydrate, regroup, or reset before things escalate.

When Crowd Care works hand-in-hand with our Medical Team, it seriously lifts the whole event experience:

✨ Early intervention
✨ Smarter triage
✨ Less harm
✨ Better patron experience
✨ Stronger welfare system

Together, Crowd Care + Medical = the ultimate harm-reduction duo 🔥
Helping everyone enjoy the night and get home safe — that’s the goal. 🙌🎶

Here’s a behind-the-scenes photo from our pre-event briefing for RÜFÜS DU SOL 2025. The team included clinicians from multiple health services with varying skill levels — first responders, EMTs, nurses, paramedics, critical care paramedics and emergency medicine specialists — each bringing something invaluable to the deployment.

That diversity is central to our interprofessional practice. By working together and pooling skills, we improve patient outcomes, increase our treatment capability, and make on-site response stronger.

Big thanks to everyone involved for their mahi and exceptional teamwork, as always!

Team MRI gearing up for a packed out crowd at Western Springs Outer-fields ⛑️

Even with years of experience behind them, our responders never skip the chance to train hard, refine their skills, and prepare for high-risk, time-dependent situations.

Strong preparation means safer events and better outcomes for everyone.

How do we support public health services?

👀 Take a look inside our most recent medical deployment: a purpose-built compound designed for a 25,000-strong crowd, complete with an ambulatory treatment space, 8 monitoring bays, and 4 resus beds.

Each station was operated by a multidisciplinary team of Registered Nurses and Paramedics, under the leadership of a Critical Care Paramedic and Emergency Medicine Specialist.

At MRI, our deployment model is designed to provide the highest-quality onsite care while mitigating demand on public health services - including frontline ambulances, Urgent Care, and Emergency Departments.

By treating onsite, we help keep the wider system moving.

Equitable healthcare isn’t just a principle - it’s a practice.

Across Aotearoa, Māori and Pasifika communities continue to face significant health inequities. These include disproportionately high rates of avoidable hospitalisations, limited access to mental health services, and persistent barriers to primary care.

Research indicates that Māori and Pasifika patients often face longer wait times for primary care appointments, ultimately contributing to delays in diagnosis, timely treatment, and continuity of care.

So how can we help? In the events industry, Māori and Pasifika festivals, celebrations, and gatherings are proudly woven throughout our national calendar - and our team is dedicated to providing a service that actively considers the barriers these communities face when accessing equitable healthcare.

MRI deploys Māori and Pasifika Health Advocates at all major events and community-led kaupapa Māori and Pasifika events across the motu. These advocates are embedded within our clinical teams to ensure care is culturally safe, whānau-centred, and equity-driven.

Their presence helps:
🌀 Build trust and encourage early engagement
🌀 Support whānau in healthcare decision-making
🌀 Guide culturally aligned care pathways
🌀 Bridge communication and language gaps
🌀 Improve health literacy on the ground

This is more than a role - it’s a commitment to manaakitanga, to system change, and to amplifying the voices of Māori and Pasifika within event healthcare.

📣 If you want to support this kaupapa and become a Māori and Pasifika Health Advocate in the event medicine space - get in touch with us by emailing info@mri.nz
