Indigenous models of clinical care merge cultural wisdom with modern healthcare, focusing on holistic well-being—physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. Ngākau Purotu, meaning "Beautiful Heart," is our framework that integrates Māori values like compassion, resilience, and collective vision into personalised care plans, ensuring both cultural respect and clinical effectiveness.

The iAwhi platform brings this model to life, connecting caregivers and whānau in real-time, fostering collaboration. Together, these approaches transform healthcare, delivering more inclusive, culturally aligned care, especially for Indigenous communities.
