Te Tumu Whakaora has a role in ensuring the Nelson Bays Primary Health Board fulfils its obligations with regards to Whānau Ora, He Korowai Oranga, the Māori Health Strategy to achieve an improvement in the health outcomes for whānau, hapū, iwi and Māori communities.

Whānau ora is a whole organisation responsibility, not just that of Te Tumu Whakaora. For this to succeed, commitment from senior management is critical. The outcome sought is well developed, co-ordinated and supported Māori leadership assisting the organisation to achieve whānau ora through careful programme design and service delivery.  He Korowai Oranga has recently been refreshed and expanded its aim form Whānau Ora to Pae Ora – healthy futures.  Pae oranga has three elements – mauri ora, whānau ora and wai ora.

 

Meeting Frequencies

Te Tumu Whakaora meets on the third Thursday of the month, 3.00 – 5.00pm, every second month.
