The opportunity
This ROI seeks to hear from organizations with capability to deliver Allied Health Services, specifically Physiotherapy and Occupational Therapy services for older persons within the geographical area of the greater Taupō District. This is the first step in a multi-step procurement process - only Respondents who are shortlisted after the ROI will be invited to continue in the procurement process, this is not a Request for Information (RFI).
What we need
Provision of allied health services; specifically, Physiotherapy and Occupational Therapy delivered out in the community within the Taupō District. For the purposes of this ROI the greater Taupō District includes Turangi Mangakino and greater surrounds. The service targets persons aged 65 years and older or those like in age who require an integrated approach to reduce frailty and falls risk arising from chronic health issues or acute events.
Persons suitable for service are identified by Primary Health Care services, Hospital and Specialist Services, Needs Assessment Service Coordination (NASC), Home and Community Support Services (HCSS), palliative care services and Hato Hone St John.
Expectations of service include:
• Clinical assessment of a person’s needs in a culturally appropriate approach.
• Appropriate care plan and treatment delivery (particularly to reversible conditions or conditions in which impact can be minimized).
• Restore/ optimize a person’s function to retain their ability to remain as safe and independent as possible within their own home.
• Optimize the ability of caregivers and/or family/Whanau to care and support the person.
• An integrated approach with primary and secondary care services to ensure coordination and consistency of delivery with a person centred approach.
• Integrated support that is targeted in a preventative approach to mitigate acute health events. This is particularly important for those that live rurally or experience social isolation.
