We are looking for someone really wanting to make a difference as a Midwife / Lead Maternity Carer in our new Kahu Taurima programme. Complementing The Fono's growing set of child-focused services, the organisation has been awarded a Waitemata region Kahu Taurima: Maternity and Early Years work programme.

Kahu Taurima is a multifaceted programme featuring specific additional services as well as using a wide range of existing elements of the FonoCare - Integrated Model of Care. “Our approach is so well suited to delivering what is needed in maternity and early years (pre-conception to 2000 days of age)” says Tevita Funaki, CEO of The Fono Group. “Through easy access to quality healthcare right through we will ensure that each Pacific mother and child has a personalised wellbeing plan founded on cultural capital to provide a sense of identity, connection and empowerment”.
The Fono programme will employ the following additional staff specifically on the Kahu Taurima programme (in addition to current resources):
- General Practitioner
- Midwife / Lead Maternity Carer
- Registered Nurse
- Health Care Assistant.
- Registered Social Worker
