Angela Tahiwi

Experienced and fully qualified Registered Nurse with over 25 years serving in Primary Health, Residential Care, and Māori health organizations. I am known for delivering culturally responsive, client-centered care that respects the values and needs of whānau and integrates community-based support networks.

Throughout my career, I have developed and nurtured excellent relationships with a diverse range of health providers, external stakeholders, and community organizations.

These collaborations have allowed me to bring impactful events and initiatives to local communities, driving better health outcomes and increased access to essential services. I believe I excel in high-pressure environments.

I am a strategic and equity-focused leader with extensive experience managing clinical and non-clinical teams that deliver a range of complex and culturally diverse services from birth to end of life. I strive to uphold the principles of Te Tiriti o Waitangi in all aspects of planning and service delivery, while fostering culturally safe, high-performing teams.
