Identifying for Informed Solutions

Person-centred, rights-based and inclusive support for individuals and organisations – grounded in real assessment, evidence and collaboration.

A rights-based, inclusive, person-centred approach.

Our Approach:

Identifying What Matters

At AISee Collaborative, we start with a simple belief: people and organisations thrive when support is person-centred, rights-based and inclusive. That means listening carefully, gathering the right information, and using evidence to guide decisions.

Beyond our initial information gathering, we often identify opportunities for further assessments – for both individuals and organisations. These help us build a clear, accurate picture of ability, capability, needs and strengths, so we can work together towards informed solutions for better outcomes.

Our Framework

We apply our #CPERG and #IRL approaches in support of #PCP (Person-Centred Planning), ensuring that what we do works in real life, not just on paper.

#CPERG

Collaborative Practice, Evidence, Rights & Growth

#IRL

Methods that work in real-life settings, not just theory

#PCP

Person-Centred Planning guiding every action

Assessments for Individuals

The right assessments can unlock understanding, strengthen voice, and improve advocacy. We use a range of structured tools to gain a rounded picture of daily living, wellbeing, skills and potential development.

Why We Assess

By identifying needs, strengths and capabilities, we create a foundation for better decision-making and better outcomes.

Daily Living Skills Assessment

Created by Thom Kirkwood (2002) and updated with Bill Colley (2024). Helps identify strengths and everyday support needs.

Developed by Thom Kirkwood and the Apex Associated team (2011). Maps out skills, abilities and development opportunities.

A range of tools designed to understand health, wellbeing, environment and stressors.

Assessments for Organisations

Inclusive practice requires environments, policies and cultures that meet people’s needs. Our assessments help identify what is working well and where improvements can be made.

Neurodiverse Environmental Accessibility Assessment (2004)

Reviews spaces, sensory environments and access, considering factors such as noise, light, smell and layout.

Assesses current understanding, highlights skills gaps, and identifies organisation-wide training needs

Evidence in Practice: Innovatively Individualising Triage Pilot Project

Informed Solutions for Better Outcomes” emerged as a core finding of this pilot project, which we co-led as partners and co-investigators. We used a trusted wellbeing assessment tool as a triage, asking a series of “What if?” questions to explore early identification and support.
