Kia Ora and Welcome to the Te Kohao Health Website.
Here are some key facts about us;

Te Kohao Health is a well established provider of health and social services.
It was established 14 years ago on Kirikiriroa Marae, Hamilton, in response to low income whanau/families’ inability to afford the costs of seeing a doctor. As a result of this, Te Kohao Health has focused on the provision of very low and no cost health and social services to high needs populations.

Te Kohao Health employs approximately 95 staff, of which 42 are based here on Kirikiriroa Marae and 53 are Home Based Support Service staff who work in the homes of our clients.

We provide over 20 different health and social severcies to approximately 5,500 clients from all ethnicities. Of this population 84% are Maori, 3% are Pacific, 2% are Asian, 9% are NZ Pakeha/European and 2% are various other ethnicities who suffer from multiple illnesses.

Te Kohao Health is the only marae-based health and social service facility in Hamilton City.

On the 6th of June 2009 we opened our $3 million Community Health and wellness Centre and on the 14th of August 2009 we opened the first joint venture pharmacy in the country. Sometimes people cannot afford to pay for precriptions, Te Kohao Health Hua Pharmacy was set up to ensure access to medications for our patients.
