Public Service
Our Service
Mobility Solutions is a wheelchair and seating assessment service based at Kahui Marino, Health New Zealand's Pt Chevalier Clinical Centre in Pt Chevalier, Auckland. We hold clinics on site and we also visit people in their own homes, schools and work places.
Mobility Solutions provides a service to people of all ages whose mobility and seating requirements are long term, complex and require individualised components. We cover the greater Auckland region and do not work with ACC claimants.
If you have any questions about whether we are the right service to work with you, please contact us or review our Indicators for Wheeled Mobility and Postural Management Level 2 Credential download sheet.
There are other services that can meet the needs of clients with less complex requirements; these include:
We do not hold any equipment or budget for equipment. Following your initial assessment we make funding applications to the fund holder Accessable on your behalf. This application is based around Whaikaha (Ministry of Disabled People) funding criteria. We then coordinate trial or fabrication of the equipment we have recommended and work with you to come to a solution that will best meet your mobility and wheelchair seating needs.
For more information about our assessment and intervention process, see the Our Process or Frequently Asked Questions download sheets.

The Team
We are a team made up of wheelchair and seating therapists who are either occupational therapists or physiotherapists. We also have therapy assistants, wheelchair technicians and other support staff to help us in the day-to-day running of our service. The clinical team are supported by a practice supervisor, an educator and a service lead.
We would love to hear from enthusiastic NZ registered physiotherapists or occupational therapists who are interested in joining our team. Please contact our service lead to discuss any possible opportunities.
