Overview

As part of the Peers in Emergency Department (ED) initiative, Health NZ | Te Whatu Ora is looking for interested service providers that will provide experienced peer support specialists that will work alongside clinicians to ensure a holistic and comprehensive approach that address the needs of people who present to ED with mental health and addiction needs. It is expected that the service provider will support the continual development of the service throughout this trial period.

This initiative will initially progress as a trial running through until June 2026.

Potential providers are encouraged to:
· attend the regionally held provider information days to clarify our requirements and how best you can respond.
· ensure they have the resources to deliver the required outcomes within the trial target deployment date of March 2025 for Canterbury and Waikato.

Responses are welcome from single providers and from a collaborative provider approach.
