TiNA (NZ)

See exactly where your team's infection prevention knowledge is strong — and where it isn't. TiNA (Training Needs Analysis) is IPS's IPC training needs analysis tool for Aotearoa New Zealand aged residential care. A short, structured self-assessment gives each staff member — and your service — a clear picture of IPC knowledge and the training that will close the gaps.

Two pathways, every role covered

• Clinical staff — registered and enrolled nurses, care workers, clinical managers, educators and IPC Leads. Covers hand hygiene, PPE, aseptic technique, antimicrobial stewardship, devices and outbreak response.
• Non-clinical staff — care and support workers, cleaning, kitchen, laundry and maintenance roles. Covers hand hygiene, PPE, the clean-to-dirty workflow, environmental cleaning, spotting the signs of infection and outbreak response.

Aligned to Ngā Paerewa

TiNA is built for Aotearoa New Zealand and aligns to NZS 8134:2021 Ngā Paerewa, the Health and Disability Services Standard. Your training plan traces back to the standard your service is certified against.

Results your IPC Lead can act on

Facility results and reports are available in the facility portal, turning individual responses into a clear, prioritised training plan — and the evidence to show your improvement journey. A companion Assessor Guide, with the marking indicators for every question, is held separately by IPS for assessors.

Who it's for

IPC Leads, educators and clinical managers building a defensible IPC training plan across the whole workforce — clinical and non-clinical.
