It's Te Wiki o te Reo Māori (14-21 Sept) and we're kicking it off with an interview with our incredible Kaiārahi ‑ Māori Cultural Liaison (Hauraki, Waikato), Barb O'Loughlin.
Michael, who was born and raised in Ireland in a family of 12 children, is what you’d call a big softie - and in his 72 years he has lived a life. Now, he is part of the Harbour Hospice whānau, after being referred to hospice by a hospital doctor in December 2021.
Harbour Hospice is a specialist, palliative care provider for families living in the Hibiscus Coast, North Shore and Warkworth/Wellsford communities. We provide compassionate, free care working with patients, families, whānau and carers in their homes, and within our three hospice sites.
Our friendly and dedicated healthcare professionals include specialist nurses, doctors and family support teams. Together we’re committed to supporting your wellbeing in every way – medically, spiritually, culturally, psychologically and socially with an emphasis on helping people live every moment in whatever way is important to them.
