The Opportunity

- One morning you may be helping someone trial a new wheelchair or as they visit their local cafe or helping someone cook independently or advising on some recent assistive technology to make staying at home more comfortable and functional.
- Comprehensive assessment and reporting eg initials, falls, functional capacity, Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) or Activities of Daily Living (ADL) & Individualised Living Option (ILO)
Like our OT's,
our Speech Pathologist's also support clients from circa mid teens to older adults, and includes those with a range of disabilities, neurological events, degenerative diseases and the elderly look to age as gracefully as possible.

- Assess the communication and mealtime management abilities of the client utilising a range of assessment techniques and tools
- Design intervention plans that are holistic, client-centric and outcomes driven
