Does hospice support cultural needs?

We aim to provide culturally safe and respectful care to all people.  We do include tikanga, other rituals and spiritual practices wherever possible and welcome whānau and other spiritual and cultural leaders to be involved with our care and support.

North Haven Hospice supports the role of our Te Tumu Herenga Waka in engaging with all people for their cultural needs, and we offer all families and whānau a poroporoaki ritual escorting the deceased from our building at Tikipunga, Whangārei.
