MyWai is a digital tool that connects people, whānau and service providers in real time to information so everyone involved in caring for a person, especially the person themselves, has what they need to support a ‘joined up’ health and hauora journey. Think of MyWai as the ‘connection’ between the goals we have as whānau and individuals and the various people, services and places we need to visit to support and achieve those goals.
In the past as whānau we are used to simply viewing certain information. In the MyWai space, there is a lot more view AND do, including:
- being able to see who has accessed your records
- all the notes written about you
- what appointments you have coming up
- include your own whānau / support network
- connect with your team directly
- write your own notes and create your own record of your hopes and goals.
At this stage Te Ara Oranga Mid North (Methamphetamine Harm Reduction) is the first service to use MyWai but we plan to include many more services and whānau across Tai Tokerau and then the entire Northern Region (which includes Waitemata, Auckland and Counties Manukau.)
