Our Mission

Te Korowai Atawhai Mercy Hospice is committed to continuing our heritage of partnership and service by providing the best palliative care for all.

Our Values

Tapu o te tangata

Dignity

Treasuring all human life underpins the dignity with which people and their whānau are treated in hospice and in the community.

Aroha

Compassion

Caring and honouring the rich diversity of each person’s whakapapa define how Aroha is brought to life at Mercy Hospice.

Mana Motuhake

Respect

Respect is experienced in the welcoming and inclusive nature of the caring for each person and their whānau.

He reo tautoko ki te rawa kore

Advocacy

Speaking out and challenging inequity in our community are evident in our choices and actions.

Kaitiakitanga

Guardianship

Te Tiriti o Waitangi and Mercy’s unique partnership with Māori, who invited the Sisters of Mercy to Aotearoa New Zealand, are central to realising our mission.
