Help us design a disability responsiveness system
He mihi nui ki a koutou katoa. Nau mai Haere mai. Homai ō whakāro mo te Waikato DHB Disability Responsiveness Plan.
Kia ora. Early this year we held a Disability Workshop seeking information on the challenges whānau hauā (people living with a disability and their whānau) face when accessing health services.
We listened to your kōrero and now have a draft Disability Responsiveness Plan that provides goals and actions for Waikato DHB to implement in order to eliminate the barriers and inequities faced by whānau hauā, in particular Māori, Pasifika and rural whānau hauā.
Date: Tuesday 1 October from 11am - 1pm
Venue: Maniapoto Whanau Ora Centre, 23 Taupiri Street, Te Kuiti
