The health of our people continues to remain a strategic focus for Te Purunga ki Te Raki RSLG. Encouraging participation and ensuring completion of health training programmes, including tailored pastoral care/awhi is key to ensuring our people can pursue a rewarding career in health. Te Purunga ki Te Raki RSLG has observed that through increased members’ facilitation, collaboration and sharing insights, there is already a broader provision of health programmes including a Māori Bachelor of Nursing, podiatry, and occupational therapy programmes. Apprenticeships that enable ākonga to ‘earn and learn’ are expanding. A core success factor is that delivery extends beyond Whangārei; it now stretches across Kerikeri, Ngāwhā and Kaitaia campuses.
