WHANAU NIGHT
Whānau Nights - bringing family together for health check-ups
As a practice we endeavour to host Whānau Nights, these were devised for our Māori and Pacifica patients who are missing key clinical interventions.
We focus on interventions that can be accomplished in an evening with our nurse clinic immunisations (including child immunisations), smears, and CVRAs.
Whānau Nights are carried out after hours, providing food and music to create a comfortable environment for whānau.
If you would like to be invited to our next night please do let reception know and they can add you to our list.
