Te Kotahi Oranga is a brand-new Student-Assisted Clinic based at Wintec, Rotokauri.

The clinic is founded on strong collaborative community partnerships and extensive research.

It seeks to provide high quality, evidence-based healthcare using a low or no-cost model to a high health needs community.


The focus of Te Kotahi Oranga clinic is interprofessional practice, where students studying health and sport-related disciplines will undertake their placements and learn in a supervised working clinic.


Our vision:
Thriving whānau, accomplished ākonga

Our mission:
We provide accessible interprofessional healthcare services focussed on the needs of the under-served community through the investment in the learning and holistic development of students studying the health disciplines

Services we offer:

The current focus areas for referral to Te Kotahi Oranga are:

  • Type 2 diabetes mellitus
  • Falls assessment and prevention
  • Adult asthma and COPD


The pilot for this ground-breaking, community health education model is currently underway, and a brand-new purpose-built clinic is due for completion in 2023.


About the role:


We are looking for an Occupational Therapist who has a big heart for students, the community we serve and is passionate about interprofessional practice.


There are 3 main parts to this role:

  • Work in the clinic with clients/whānau
  • Work with the students on placement in the clinic supporting them to take the lead in client care, enabling learning and development, empowering them to be the best clinicians that they can be
  • Contribute to the design, development and ongoing growth of the clinic in conjunction with the rest of the clinic and research team
A solutions-focused mindset will come naturally to you, and you will be comfortable working in a small team.
