Referral Process

A referral is required for entry into Mana o te Tangata Service.  Once recieved the referral will be triaged by our team at our weekly MDT meeting.  If the referral meets Mana o te Tangata criteria the referral will be allocated to a staff member.  The client will then be invited to an initial apointment to meet with a staff member and discuss the best ways in which they can be supported.  Please note Mana o te Tangata is not an urgent or crises service.
