Supporting Parents Healthy Children Guidelines | Actionable strategies for kaimahi | practitioners

Introduction

In this section of the Supporting Parents Healthy Guidelines you will find actionable strategies for your work with tāngata whaiora | people seeking health.

The recommendations are grounded in the values and principles of Te Ao Māori. They aim to make the journey through healthcare and social services a more empowering and holistic experience for tāngata whaiora and their whānau.

By focusing on relationships, self-determination, respectful care, and responsible guardianship, these recommendations strive to weave a korowai (cloak) of manaakitanga and aroha around all those who seek support.

This section has been designed as a menu of sorts, to offer options at the varying stages of interaction between tāngata whaiora, their whānau and kaimahi.  Even if you are already in relationship with tangata whaiora, it is not too late to introduce any of them.

Hāpai ō | Practical support

In the complex landscape of healthcare and support services, effective triaging and prioritisation are foundational to meeting the diverse needs of individuals and their families. Central to this process is the acknowledgment of children (tamariki) and young people (rangatahi)who are integral to the lives of those seeking assistance. This approach ensures that their well-being and developmental needs are not only recognised but also prioritised within the frameworks of care and support.

He Kaimahi whanake haere ai tātou | Growing and enhancing our capacity and capability as kaimahi

As kaimahi, our commitment to continuous growth and development is integral to our mission of providing exemplary care and support to our communities.

By nurturing our capacity and enhancing our capabilities, we continue to enhance ourselves to meet the evolving needs of those we serve with empathy, skill, and cultural competence. This journey encompasses training in trauma-informed care, fostering inclusive organisational cultures, leveraging peer support, and lived experience, and integrating traditional wisdom with evidence-based practices.

Through these concerted efforts, we not only strengthen our professional abilities but also enrich our collective impact in promoting dignity, guardianship, and support for all individuals and whānau.
