Te Omanga Hospice

What Te Omanga Hospice does

Te Omanga Hospice is a charitable not-for-profit organization founded in 1979 and headquartered at 136 Woburn Road, Lower Hutt, New Zealand. It delivers specialist palliative care to patients with life-limiting or terminal illnesses across the Hutt Valley region, including Upper Hutt, Lower Hutt, Petone, and Wainuiomata. Core clinical services comprise a 24-hour inpatient unit, community nursing, medical services, aged residential care, family support and bereavement counseling, and an embedded palliative care team operating inside Hutt Valley Hospital in partnership with the district health board. Care is delivered free of charge to patients by a multidisciplinary staff of doctors, nurses, and therapists, supported by a structured volunteer program.

The organization's service portfolio extends beyond direct patient care into professional education and community capacity building. It runs a calendar of fee-for-service courses for health professionals — including Hospice New Zealand-endorsed syringe driver training, palliative care approach workshops, and clinical skills sessions — alongside community-facing programs such as 'Let's Talk About Dying' and a library service. Education is delivered at the McKenzie Centre on the hospice campus and represents both a clinical-quality and revenue-diversification lever.

Te Omanga operates a diversified funding model. Clinical operations are primarily supported by government healthcare contracts, supplemented by community donations, bequests, a Days of Care fundraising campaign, an annual Vintners' Lunch fundraising event, and four charity retail shops selling donated second-hand goods. Revenue, pricing, and detailed financials are not publicly disclosed. Distribution is regional and referral-driven: GPs, hospitals, and clinical partners refer patients, while retail and event channels engage the wider community. The organization is governed through the Te Omanga Hospice Trust and Te Omanga Hospice Foundation.
