Description
Koiora is an inter-disciplinary health & wellbeing service in Rotorua.
Koiora provides a service that is hope-inspiring, strengths-driven, and encourages people to improve their health and lead fulfilling lives and contribute meaningfully to their communities and society more broadly.
We do this through a focus on:
- Reducing health inequity through improving access
- Integrating with other health services and agencies such as MSD and Dept of Corrections
- Providing responsive care delivery
- Supporting enrolment into General Practice
Koiora services are usually available for whānau for up to 3 months duration or less. This is dependent upon enrolment in local general practices.
Te Whare Tapa Wha is the preferred assessment framework to ensure that taha tinana, wairua, whānau and hinengaro (physical, spiritual, family and mental health) needs are addressed.
