Our experienced OT team partners with adults with a variety of disabilities and injuries. We generally work with people over the age of 16 years.
We provide these services by working with people in their own homes or usual environments. We know that working with people in their usual environment ensures we have a good understanding of the needs, are able to consider options of modifications to the environment and allows us to get to know you best. We believe this provides a comprehensive and quality assessment process.
Our aim is to enhance safety, participation and independence – all while working towards the participants goals. We do this by partnering with the participant, their family, support and treating team. We ensure our services are based on the participants goals and needs. We do this via good communication, participant-centered practice and collaboration.
Our OT services are provided under icare, NDIS, CTP and workers comp.
We will consider home modifications for younger people, but please contact our customer service team to discuss this further.
