WEIT Clinic Indigenous Rehabilitation
Indigenous Rehabilitation was established with the intent purpose of supporting Māori clinical models and practises to achieve whānau ora. We invite you to learn more about our clinical practise model, Ngākau Pūrotu, and our many programs and innovations in pursuit of whānau health, empowerment and independence.
Achieving Whānau Ora
The concept of Whānau Ora can be described as a major contemporary indigenous health initiative driven by Māori cultural values. Its core goal is to empower communities and extended families to support whānau within the community context rather than individuals within an institutional context. It is about transformation; celebrating the power and potential of a whānau-centred approach which will enable our people to flourish. Whānau Ora is the ultimate expression of our survival.
Our goal is to support whānau to have a voice and a choice when it comes to their family wellbeing. Ministry of Health statistics show Māori are almost three times as likely as non-Māori to have experienced unfair treatment based on ethnicity. This demonstrates why it is imperative that initiatives respond to racial discrimination. Our solution to this problem is to provide a service through a kaupapa practise model that is proven and successful.
