Ō mātou mātāpono arataki (Our guiding principles)

Whanaungatanga, Kaitiakitanga, Rangatiratanga, Manaakitanga, and Wairuatanga.

Ō mātou whakataukī arataki - (Our guiding whakataukī)

He toku tū moana. (To persevere and stand steadfast in who you are.) 

Te tuituinga o te hauora ki te ahurea me te manaakitanga o te Māori e rere ai ngā moemoeā.

Ngā Moemoea

Kei te whakakōkiritia mātou o Te Amo Atawhai e tētahi take - kia whakapiki ake te hauora me te oranga o te iwi Māori. Ka rato mātou i ngā ratonga hauora e whakamanawa ana, e hāngai ana, e whakarata ana hoki ki te ahurea hāngai ai ki ngā moemoeā, ngā wawata me ngā uara o te hapori mā te whakamana i te tirohanga o te hauora o te ao Māori.

Kei te whakamaranga mātou o Te Amo Atawhai i ngā haepapa i Te Tiriti o Waitangi, mā te poipoi i ngā hononga me te whakawhanake i ngā kaupapa whakamana i ngā kiritaki, ngā whānau Māori, ngā hapū, ngā iwi me ngā hapori. Mā te mahi tahi, ka whakaitia iho ngā rerekētanga ā-hauora, ka whakapikitia ake te urunga ki ngā ratonga hauora, ā, ka whakaritea te anamata e ōrite ana ngā whakataunga hauora mō te katoa.

Wellness woven in culture and Māori-centric care, where dreams take flight.

Ngā Moemoea

At Te Amo Atawhai we are driven by a shared purpose - to improve the health and wellbeing of Māori.  We provide culturally confident, relevant and responsive hauora services that resonate with the dreams, aspirations, and values of hapori by embracing a Te Ao Māori worldview of hauora.

At Te Amo Atawhai we uphold our responsibilities under Te Tiriti o Waitangi, by fostering meaningful relationships and developing mana-enhancing approaches with kiritaki, whānau Māori, hapū, iwi, and hapori. Together, we reduce health disparities, promote access to hauora services and forge a future where equitable hauora outcomes are achieved for all.
