He whakamārama mō Tui Ora | About us

Tui Ora is a kaupapa Māori organisation, providing a range of wellbeing services to whānau in Taranaki. We employ passionate, professional people to fit with our whānau team culture. We value highly skilled, committed community-focused individuals to support this kaupapa, and we currently have an exciting new opportunity.

Mō te tūranga | About the role

We are seeking a registered health professional to facilitate high quality coordination of care as part of the comprehensive primary and community team for people and whānau with the greatest complexity of care needs, who require their care to be frequently transferred between providers and across services, which includes hospitalisations. Facilitating care coordination improves quality of care and can increase appropriate community-based care, closer to home. Therefore, effective internal and external care coordination can reduce unnecessary hospitalisations (e.g., ASH rates), re-hospitalisations, missed outpatient appointments (e.g., reduce DNA rates), and perpetuation of the health inequities this population contends with.
