Introduction

Turuki Health Care was founded in 1995 by our visionary group of Māori midwives, the Putea o Pua Trust. Our original kaupapa was to overcome health and wellbeing inequities for wāhine Māori. The founding CEO was Syd Jackson, who had a dream to provide affordable and accessible healthcare for the people of South Auckland.

Turuki Health Care is committed to providing holistic kaupapa Māori health, wellbeing, and social services. With a strong dedication to respecting our culture, we provide services that look after the complete wellbeing of each person.

Our diverse team reflects the communities we serve. We're mostly made up of Māori and Pacific professionals, covering different roles and disciplines (clinical and non-clinical), including our respected kaumātua.

We are continually guided by our vision, mission, and purpose.

Whānau have high aspirations for themselves and their communities and are clear about how they want to work with us to make those aspirations a reality.

We work to improve the health and wellbeing outcomes in South Auckland by supporting whānau to identify their own needs and determine the support they want from us. The aspirations of whānau and communities are at the heart of everything that we do.
