Questions
Where do the Ngā Paerewa questions come from?
Each question is drawn from Ngā Paerewa, the Health and Disability Services Standard, as HealthCERT audits it, and names the standard it comes from with a link to the regulator's own page. The facts were checked against health.govt.nz on 15 October 2026.
Does the score predict my Ngā Paerewa certification?
No. The score shows where your evidence is strong and where it is thin, section by section, so you know what to work on first. Ngā Paerewa decides the certification after its own assessment.
Does Ngā Paerewa endorse this quiz or wai?
HealthCERT, Ministry of Health registers and rates providers. It does not approve, certify or endorse software, wai included, and software cannot earn a certification on a provider's behalf. wai keeps the records your team uses to show Ngā Paerewa how care is delivered, and Ngā Paerewa decides the certification.
What happens to my answers?
Your answers are scored in your browser and stay there. They are sent to us only if you ask for the full report by email, and then only to write and send it.
