Māori Health Services – He Kamaka Waiora | Waitematā
The introduction of practices based on Tikanga Māori have made a significant contribution to Māori Health across the region. The He Kāmaka Waiora Māori Health Provider team works with Māori patients and their whānau when they need to access the hospital services. This includes coordinating whānau accommodation, providing social and cultural and advocacy services and working with Waitematā and Auckland District clinicians and other Waitematā and Auckland District staff to ensure that services are responsive to the needs of Māori Health gain.
