Nursing - Community, Maternal & Child Health (Healthcare & Medical)
Te Tiriti o Waitangi is the founding document that defines the relationship between Māori and the Crown in Aotearoa New Zealand. It affirms the tangata whenua status of whānau, hapū, and iwi in Aotearoa, New Zealand, and their rights to citizenship. Te Tiriti o Waitangi provides a basis for Māori to critically analyze relationships, challenge the status quo, and affirm Māori rights.
At Arowhenua Whānau Services our purpose is to ensure that the needs of Māori living in the Takiwā of Te Rūnanga o Arowhenua are responded to in an appropriate way by bringing whānau, hapū, iwi, and Māori community development into a relationship with health, social services and education provision.
We are a friendly, collaborative team committed to seeing whānau succeed in their aspiration of achieving positive health and wellbeing outcomes. Your career growth and development is not only supported and encouraged, but it's also a part of everyday life at Arowhenua Whānau Services.
In addition, the organisation offers a range of fun events and activities for the team and whānau and provides a supportive and caring environment that shapes our workplace culture.
