Māori are a diverse people and whilst there is no single Māori identity, it is vital practitioners offer culturally appropriate care when working with whānau Māori. This can be actualised by (in no particular order):
- Acknowledging Te Whare Tapa Whā (Māori model of health) when working with whānau Māori
- Asking Māori clients if they would like their whānau or significant others to be involved in assessment and treatment
- Asking Māori clients about any particular cultural beliefs they or their whānau have that might impact on assessment and treatment of the particular health issue (Cultural issues)
- Consider the importance of Whakawhanaungatanga (making meaningful connections) with their Māori client / whānau
- Knowledge of Whānau Ora, Te Ara Whānau Ora and Navigators where appropriate.
Whānau Ora
Whānau Ora Navigators/ Kaiwhakaaraara work alongside whānau to identify their aspirations, strengths and chosen pathway.
