Our Services
Assessment
We offer Occupational Therapy assessments across the lifespan in which we meet with the Consumer and family to discuss the areas of concern and identify treatment goals.
As a part of this process we complete standardised and non standardised assessments to inform our practice. We understand the importance of family and community for recovery and use a family based approach.
We aim to assess consumers participation and functioning in activities of daily living and collaboratively identify client centred goals.
Intervention
Our intervention focus is to identify areas where participation is challenging and support consumers and families to build skills that enables improved performance and participation in these activities across different environments.
