Maori health
Historically, Maori have been disadvantaged and over represented in negative statistics of most social areas. The health environment in Turanganui-a-Kiwa is no different. The task set down for Turanga Health is to ensure that improvements in the health status of iwi and Maori are achieved. Read more about Maori health.
History
It grew and grew and by October 2013 Turanga Health had won the Community Service Excellence Category of the Westpac Gisborne Business Excellence Awards drawing praise from the city’s leaders and cementing its validity as a specialised provider of health services. These days Turanga Health is a leading provider of wraparound health services for over 3000 whanau. Read more about our history.
