Managing Director / Co-Founder

David has spent nearly 30 years in rehabilitation and patient handling, and he’s best known for the practical side of it: getting the right equipment to the right person, and making sure the people using it know how.

He has trained therapists, nurses and care staff across New Zealand and Australia in safe moving and handling, from hoist and sling selection through to pressure care and bed setup. That training comes from experience on the ground, not a manual, and it shows in how carers and clinicians use equipment long after the session ends.

Over his career David has managed key equipment brands in New Zealand, Australia and overseas. He knows these products from the inside: how they’re built, where they fit, and where they don’t.

He also works with hospital planning teams and architects early in the design process, on new builds and extensions for major hospitals, aged-care facilities and private homes. Ceiling track, doorway widths, bathroom layouts and storage are far cheaper to get right on the drawings than after the walls are up, and that’s where David adds the most value.

Regulatory and standards

David oversees DHC’s regulatory compliance, including Medsafe WAND notification as New Zealand sponsor for the devices we supply, alignment with TGA requirements for Australia, and AS/NZS medical device standards.

Ethan is the Product Manager at Dynamic Healthcare, Ethan oversees the sourcing, supply and installation of equipment that supports mobility and rehabilitation. He works closely with our suppliers to make sure the products we bring to New Zealand meet the standards our clients and clinicians expect, and he stays across new developments so our range keeps pace with best practice in care.

Ethan works hand in hand with occupational therapists, physiotherapists and other clinicians, along with carers, facilities and families, to match each person with the right solution. His focus is on equipment that is clinically effective, easy to use and aligned with each client’s care goals, so it makes a real difference from the day it arrives.

Based in Auckland, Ethan spends his time on the road full time, supporting customers throughout the country. Whether it’s an assessment, a trial, an installation or a follow-up visit, he makes sure every piece of equipment is set up correctly and meets the needs of the individual using it. That hands-on, nationwide presence means clients and clinicians have a knowledgeable point of contact wherever they are.
