Description
Te Tumu Waiora is a programme that has new roles – Health Improvement Practitioners (HIP) and Health Coaches – based in general practices to help people with their wellbeing and mental health. They support people to make a plan and give them information and tools to manage their health better.
People see HIPs and Health Coaches for a wide range of reasons – some of the most common reasons are anxiety, stress, depression, sleep issues, family/relationship issues, lifestyle issues (nutrition, smoking), or help with managing long term conditions.
GPs or nurses in general practice can offer people the option of seeing the HIP or Health Coach very quickly – often immediately. This is usually at the general practice and is free of charge.
