Hinewirangi Morgan Wananga promoting wellbeing

The service is designed to empower whanau to achieve their health goals. We offer a free 'Whanau Wellness Plan' developed by you and your whanau with the assistance of our registered nurse. This includes a mini health check; goals and objectives; regular monitoring and review; face to face health education. We cover all aspects of health, but some of the health issues we commonly deal with include smoking, asthma, diabetes, nutrition and physical activity, men's issues, cervical screening, sexual health, advocacy and support, substance abuse, rangatahi mentor, and whanau ora community Kaimahi.

Our community Kaimahi:

• Ensures that Maori get access to Primary Health Services - GPs, food bank, dental
• Administers the inequalities fund
• Promotes Kaupapa Maori Health Services to GPs and other health providers in the community
• Identifies gaps where whanau are not accessing GPs or health providers and reasons why

We provide services to all people, young and old. Men/Tane are especially encouraged to access our service. We can arrange to see you at one of our clinics at either the town office or Te Atiawa Buliding, Waikawa. Service can also be delivered at home if appropriate.
