Evaluation of Kootuitui's holistic approach

In the period 2016-2018, Kootuitui ki Papakura was excellently supported by the Middlemore Foundation for Health Innovation. The Foundation provided most of our funding and also offered expertise in system development and the building of stakeholder relationships. With our pilot period coming to an end, the collection of data across all three strands was pulled together and analysed. The report attached here is a testament to the hard work of everyone involved - the trustees, employees, volunteers and key partners. Although our outcomes may be more apparent in the medium and long term, there are many indications that such an holistic approach as we take does lead to some very real positive outcomes, even in the short term. Coupled with recommendations for further development, this document both acknowledges areas of strength and achievement and encourages us to continue to iterate to achieve our vision of ensuring lifelong outcomes for tamariki.
