Te Pāti Māori says it will rebuild and strengthen a Māori-led health authority. It wants to shift health services away from only responding to crises, toward preventing problems and supporting whole-family wellbeing. The party says services must be easy to reach, culturally safe, and answerable to Māori communities.
“Re-build and strengthen Māori-led health authority and solutions.”
“Shift the system toward prevention and whānau wellbeing, not just crisis response.”
“A health system that does not understand Māori will keep failing Māori.”
