- Manage My Health Cyber Breach | Turuki Health Care
Manage My Health Cyber Breach Important update about your health information Dear Whaanau (patients), We acknowledge the recent cybersecurity breach at ManageMyHealth (MMH) and recognise the distress and concern this news will be causing. What happened? On 30 December 2025, MMH identified unauthorised ransomware activity within the My Health Documents module of the ManageMyHealth app. This activity was the result of a criminal cyberattack. Once detected, MMH secured its systems, isolated the affected environment, and engaged independent cybersecurity and forensic specialists. They have also notified and are cooperating with Health New Zealand, the Privacy Commissioner, New Zealand Police, and other relevant authorities. Is ManageMyHealth still safe to use? In short, yes. MMH has confirmed that the services connecting ManageMyHealth to general practice systems were not impacted by this incident. Clinical systems, practice management systems, and day-to-day clinical workflows remain secure and unaffected. There has been no impact on practice-held patient records. MMH has also advised that there is no evidence of ongoing unauthorised access and that the incident has been contained. Additional safeguards have been put in place, and their systems are currently secure. MMH is encouraging enabling two-factor authentication and updating your password (if you haven’t already been prompted to do so). Turuki Health Care takes your privacy and confidentiality seriously. We also partner with Netcare as our specialist IT and cybersecurity provider to help strengthen and continuously improve the security of our own clinical and business systems, to keep patient data safe. We will continue to monitor this situation and be further reviewing our own information security in line with any findings from this third-party incident. Do we have any patients affected by the cyber incident? Yes, we have some patients that have been affected by the hacking. These patients are being contacted in tranches by the MMH team to let them know they were affected, next steps, and to offer appropriate support. Why have we not notified affected patients ourselves? The Office of the Privacy Commissioner (OPC) has asked for a co-ordinated approach to notification rather than having hundreds of individual practices undertake the process; therefore, the OPC has asked MMH to manage the notification process. We have to respect the wishes of the government and follow due process. When will the notification of patients start? MMH has told us that the notification process to affected patients started today, Thursday 8 January and is likely to take up to a week to complete given the sheer size and scale of the breach. So far around 50,000 patients have been contacted. The next tranche of notifications will begin at 8.30am tomorrow morning. To reach the full list but will take several days to complete while contact details are gathered. MMH has made updates to its website with an “account security status” notification. A green box (as per the image below) means the account has not been accessed. If it has a “red” security status note the account has been affected and a reference number will be provided and the 0800 number to ring for further support. Summary of key points ManageMyHealth has indicated that it is taking responsibility for notification to individuals who have had personal information disclosed as a result of their cyber security incident. Anyone concerned about whether information may have been disclosed will be contacted by ManageMyHealth directly. Health providers do not have sufficient details about the individual information involved in order to provide you with any useful information at this stage. It is appreciated that this is a difficult and unsettling situation, it is important that individuals who might be affected are provided with accurate and certain information, and only ManageMyHealth can provide that at this stage. Taking care of your wellbeing It’s important to look after yourself during this time. Here are some ways you can support your mental health and wellbeing: Talk to someone you trust about how you’re feeling Limit how much time you spend reading about the breach if you notice it increases your anxiety Stick to routines that support your wellbeing, such as physical exercise, social connection, gardening, crafts, cooking, or taking part in your usual activities Use calming strategies like breathing exercises or grounding techniques to help manage stress.

- About Us | Turuki Health Care
Learn about Turuki Health Care’s mission to support whaanau in South and Central Auckland with essential health and social services. Explore our history, vision, purpose, and commitment to improving lives through the Takarangi Framework. About Us Our History Turuki Health Care was founded in 1995 by our visionary group of Maaori midwives, Te Putea o Pua Trust. Our original kaupapa was to overcome health and wellbeing inequities for waahine Maaori. The service grew and in 2002 relocated to Canning Crescent, Maangere under the management of Syd Jackson (Ngaati Kahungunu, Ngaati Porou). The building was opened by Dame Tariana Turia. The board was formed at this time with Syd Jackson as chair, Janice Kuka, Dr Colin Mantell, Bill Takerei, Dr Irihapeti Ramsden, Timi Maipi and Haki Waikato (kaumatua). The kaupapa and organisation had a reset in 2008 following Syd Jackson’s passing and was renamed Turuki Health Care Charitable Trust. Turuki Health Care is committed to providing holistic kaupapa Maaori health, wellbeing, and social services. With a strong dedication to respecting our culture, we provide services that look after the complete wellbeing of each person. Our diverse team reflects the communities we serve. We're mostly made up of Maaori and Pacific professionals, covering different roles and disciplines (clinical and non-clinical), including our respected kaumaatua. We are continually guided by our vision, mission and purpose. Whaanau have high aspirations for themselves and their communities,and are clear about how they want to work with us to make those aspirations a reality. We work to improve health and wellbeing outcomes in South Auckland, by supporting whaanau to identify their own needs and determine the support they want from us. The aspirations of whaanau and communities are at the heart of everything that we do. Vision "Oranga wahine, Oranga whaanau" Wahine and whaanau wellbeing Mission "Whakamanatia te wahine, hei oranga whaanau" Uplifting wahine to strengthen the wellbeing of whaanau Purpose "Kei te whaanau ake te mana whakahaere oranga" Better wellbeing outcomes for whaanau, hapuu and iwi through self-identification and self-determination of how needs are to be met Principles Aro matawai – Assessment Poowhiri, taatai, ahu whenua – Welcome, planning, collaboration Whakawhanaunga, manaaki, ngaakau mahaki, aroha – Relationships, hospitality, humility, love Karakia, tautoko, te reo, whakangahau, tuku atu tuku mai – Karakia, support, te reo, enjoyment, reciprocity Values Tika, pono, aroha Correctness, truth , love Since that time, we have honoured the early beginnings set by the midwives , and the legacy laid down in the early days by Syd Jackson and the board members, three of whom remain on the board to this day. Turuki remains committed to servicing whaanau in South Auckland and has successfully extended into East Auckland and holds a national contract for Oranga Tamariki. Turuki notably supported whaanau and other providers and organisations through the 2020-2022 COVID pandemic and the 2023 Auckland floods and Cyclone Gabrielle damage with a wide range of resources and interventions. We have continued to incorporate the learnings and innovation from that time into our current services including outreach services, telehealth, wairua services, and workforce development. Innovation has remained an important focus for Turuki to continually evolve and improve services to those we serve. This organisation continues to thrive because of its kaupapa and its focus on the wellbeing of whaanau to do whatever it takes, and to meet the aspirations of our tupuna not only for Maaori, but for the range of communities who choose to access our services. Turuki continues to be a strong advocate for change at a national and local level. Despite policy changes and fluctuations to funding flows faced by those in the NGO sector, it has been the strong and consistent leadership at a governance level and our organisational capacity and capability from the bottom to the top of the organisational tree, that have collectively sustained Turuki. We remember and celebrate our humble beginnings, our kaupapa and values that keep us focused on what is important to whaanau and kaimahi, and the vision of those who have gone before us. We remain champions for change for the inequities and disparities that exist for many in our community in their everyday lives, by providing access to a range of integrated services that support whaanau to become experts in their own health and wellbeing. Our Vision, Mission, Purpose Turuki Health Care have adopted the Takarangi Competency Framework, whose fusion of cultural and clinical elements guides us in our work and our relationships. Working within this framework, we support our whaanau to access health, mental health and addiction, and social and wellbeing services. The framework contains fourteen competencies which guide us through our mahi. The Takarangi Framework The Turuki Health Care website uses the double vowel convention instead of the macron in the spelling of words in te reo Maaori. Most of the services at Turuki Health Care are located and delivered within the boundary of the Waikato-Tainui iwi. This iwi uses the double vowel convention. Turuki Health Care have therefore adopted this convention. This is why you will see the following words, as examples, used in our website - whaanau instead of whānau, Maaori instead of Māori, Maangere instead of Māngere. The language strategy and tikanga of Turuki Health Care is guided by our own Te Paematua o Turuki who advise on all such elements for our organisation.
