Tairawhiti Midwives and Nurses' Portal
"Nau mai haeremai ki tenei wahanga ipurangi akoranga mo nga Nehi me nga Kai Whakawhanau PÄ“pi"
Welcome to the Midwifery and Nursing Education Website - Tairawhiti. This has evolved out of the realisation that many nurses in the Tairawhiti region across all sectors were not aware of some of the educational and professional development activities that are available to them.
It is the intention to ensure that information about educational opportunities is available to as many nurses as possible; to work together to support one another and our entire midwifery and nursing community.
The Strategic Goals for Nursing and Midwifery in Tairawhiti (below) provides clear guidance and aligns well with the Tairawhiti District Health Boards Strategic and Annual Plan www.tdh.org.nz

TDH Restraint Minimisation and Safe Practice Education
Tairawhiti District Health (TDH) has a requirement to and is committed to comply with the Health and Disability Services Restraint Minimisation and Safe Practice Standard ((RMSP NZS 8134:2008).
The main aim of this standard is to reduce the use of restraint in all its forms and to encourage the use of the least restrictive practices.
