He kawa whakaruruhau ā matatau Māori: Māori cultural safety and competence standard

Presentation Abstract

He kawa whakaruruhau ā matatau Māori: Māori cultural safety and competence standard places particular emphasis on tangata whenua (Māori) and our unique Treaty relationship.

Māori culturally competent physiotherapists contribute to improved and equitable outcomes for ngā kiritaki hauora and all those working in the health sector.

This will be an interactive session, acknowledging that there may be challenges, and exploring how we can reflect and learn from these challenges. The intention is to have a safe space for open dialogue and to build confidence when working with ngā kiritaki haurora.
