Description

We are a Kaupapa Māori based, non-acute health service.
Started by Hine Loughlin - Nurse Practitioner Prescriber - as whānau had expressed the need for healthcare in an environment where they felt safe and empowered.
We also wanted to remove as many barriers to healthcare services as possible i.e.

  • cost - free service
  • appointments - please call for acute needs
  • early start Wednesdays for workers 07.00hrs

We visit two different marae in the rohe, bringing care to whānau in their marae.
Our goal is to empower whānau to be the drivers of their own health journeys.

We welcome any queries relating to your hauora 0800 WHIRIA or txt 0273166219 for Tūrangi direct.
