Request for Application: Training for Independence Services 2023

Training for Independence (TI) Services support ACC’s community rehabilitation services that aim to restore or maximise kiritaki/ client independence, and reduce their need for other rehabilitation support services. They provide flexible and individualised interdisciplinary rehabilitation to meet the needs of a diverse range of kiritaki/ clients.
We will be going to tender the week starting 7 February for the following services:
1. TI – Te Ata Pō (Before Dawn) Significant injury-related needs
2. TI – Te Ata Tū (Dawn) Moderate injury-related needs.
3. TI – Tamariki & Rangatahi
We will not be going to tender for TI – Sensitive Claims at this time.

Outcomes must be based on the needs and goals of the client/kiritaki and their whānau. Good client/kiritaki outcomes may look like restored independence and ability to participate in everyday life, be it at home, community, work and/or education settings.

ACC is looking for suppliers who can demonstrate they meet ACC requirements to deliver these services as set out in the tender documentation.
