Frequently

asked

questions

Are Tui Ora services free?

Yes. Apart from visits to our GP clinic Tui Ora Hauora ā-Whānau, Tui Ora services are free.

Who are Tui Ora services for?

Our services are available to all in need.  While we are a kaupapa Māori organisation and focused on raising hauora outcomes for Māori, we support people from all backgrounds, walks of life and ethnicities.

Most of our services and programmes have no restrictions on who can use them.

Some have specific entry criteria because they have been designed for a particular group or demographic (hapu māmā, those living with long-term health challenges, Community Service card holders etc). Come in and kōrero.

What is Te Whaitua Whānau?

This is your space, a place Tui Ora has created for whānau. You don’t need an appointment – or even a reason – just call in and let us manaaki you.

As well as being the perfect place for a cuppa and a kōrero, Te Whaitua Whānau has private spaces where you can talk openly with our hauora specialists and kaiārahi.

I need a doctor – can you help me?

The short answer is yes! While we may not be able to enrol you at our GP clinic Tui Ora Hauora a-Whānau as our patient lists may be full,  finding GPs for whānau is part of our everyday mahi. Drop in to Te Whaitua Whānau and we’ll get you sorted.

Where is Tui Ora located?

You can visit us in Ngāmotu, Waitara, Opunake (via the Homeland Hub) and Hāwera. We also have many mobile services that can come to you. Visit our Contact page to see our locations and contact details or call 0800 TUI ORA.

Does Tui Ora have any jobs going?

If you would like to work at Tui Ora, we’d love to hear from you. Visit our Careers page —you can see what jobs are going and learn a bit about what it’s like to work here. Also, send your CV to [email protected] so we can get to know you and get in touch if the right opportunity comes up.

How is Tui Ora funded?

We are a not-for-profit organisation with several funding streams. Some of our funding comes directly from Government, some via Te Whatu Ora (Health NZ) and some from private organisations and individuals who share our commitment to raising hauora outcomes for Taranaki Māori.
