Health Services We Fund
Maaori Health
Kia Ora! Welcome to Maaori Health!
We are committed to improving the health of Maaori by targeting the unacceptable health inequalities experienced by Māori in Counties Manukau. CMDHB is working to improve and provide you with consistent service, in the areas of cultural inpatient support, emergency accommodation and community support.
Progress is being made but we continue to explore creative, innovative and original solutions from a Maaori perspective.
For us, the ultimate goal of Maaori health is the attainment of Whaanau Ora. Whānau are at the heart of Maaori society. Whaanau fulfil many important functions including spiritual and physical sustenance, aroha, manaakitanga, rangatiratanga, kaitiakitanga and more. Planning for Maori Health services is based on the understanding that:
Healthy Whaanau equate to Healthy Maaori

Whaanau Ora – Maaori Ora |

Kia whai kaha, whai mana painga ki nga kawenga oranga iwi ki tua o rangi |
Whaanau inspired, enabled, resourced and in control of their own health |
