Te Piki Oranga

What Te Piki Oranga does

Te Piki Oranga is a Māori healthcare provider established in 2014, delivering culturally grounded health and wellness services to whānau across the Te Tauihu o Te Waka-a-Māui region (Nelson, Tasman, and Marlborough) in New Zealand. The organisation operates four fixed hauora hubs in Whakatū (Nelson), Motueka, Wairau (Blenheim), and Waitohi (Picton), supplemented by in-home, mobile clinic, and community outreach delivery. Its service portfolio spans more than 20 distinct programmes covering mental health, addiction, maternity and early years, child and adolescent health, cancer care, elderly support, immunisation, smoking cessation, cervical screening, gambling support, healthy homes assessment, driver licensing, and harm reduction (needle exchange), all delivered within a kaupapa Māori framework grounded in the Te Whare Tapa Whā model.

The underlying technology stack is modest and operationally focused rather than differentiated: secure cloud-based data storage compliant with Ministry of Health security practices, integration with the HealthOne South Island electronic health record system for interoperability with regional healthcare providers, telehealth delivery via phone and video, and mobile clinic logistics. All services are provided free of charge to patients, with revenue derived from New Zealand government health budgets and contracts, most notably a partnership with Ara Poutama Aotearoa (Department of Corrections) to deliver the Tikanga Māori Motivational Programme across Te Tai Poutini, Te Tauihu, and Kaikoura. The go-to-market is community- and referral-led, with access primarily through GP and healthcare provider referrals alongside self-referral via phone, email, or online forms, and brand awareness driven through the tpo.org.nz website, Instagram, the quarterly Te Puna Pānui newsletter, and community events.
