Getting a COVID-19 vaccine is an important step you can take to protect yourself, your kaumātua and whānau from the effects of the virus. For more information on the COVID-19 vaccines and eligibility visit Ministry of Health - COVID-19 vaccines
The majority of routine vaccinations can now be administered before, after, or at the same time as your COVID-19 vaccinations. The exception to this is the Zostavax (shingles) vaccine where a 7-day gap before or after receiving the Pfizer COVID-19 is advised.

Description
"Kia whakatinanatia ko te ihi, ko te wehi, ko te wana me te hauoranga o te whānau"
The English translation is “Living their Tino Rangatiratanga through Strong, Healthy, Vibrant and Prosperous Whānau”. This vision is a reflection to our past history to a time when our people once thrived as individuals, as whānau, hapu and Iwi. This vision gives us directional purpose in our mahi at Te Kōhao and can only be achieved when one is fully committed to contributing.
Miro O Te Ora, formerly named Te Ha o Kiritahi, has been operating for the past 15 years as Te Kōhao Medical Clinic. The new name "Miro O Te Ora" was given to us by Kiingi Tuheitia in 2009 when we moved into Te Kōhao's multi-purpose Whānau Ora - Health and Wellness Centre.
A multi-disciplinary team of General Practice Doctors and Nurses work together to provide affordable medical services and access to holistic services.
