n
- Adult & Older Adult Caseload – No Paediatrics

If you're tired of feeling like another number in a large organisation, this is an opportunity to join a growing independent Occupational Therapy provider where your contribution will genuinely be noticed.
n
The business has recently moved into brand-new premises in Wollongong and is continuing to grow its clinical team.
n
You'll work closely with the Director, another Occupational Therapist and expanding allied health support, including an Allied Health Assistant and dedicated administration team.
n
Your Caseload The caseload is entirely adult and older adult focused, with approximately:
n
n
- One-third psychosocial disability and mental health
n
- One-third ASD, ADHD and cognitive presentations
n
- One-third physical and neurological presentations
n
n
Clients may present with:
n
n
- Multiple Sclerosis
n
- Parkinson's Disease
n
- Falls and ageing-related conditions
n
- Mental health and psychosocial disability
n
- ASD and ADHD
n
- Cognitive conditions
n
- Physical disability
n
n
Your work can include:
n
n
- Functional Capacity Assessments
n
- Home modifications
n
- Assistive technology
n
- Equipment prescription
n
- ADL assessments
n
- Housing assessments
n
- Falls prevention
n
- Ramps, rails and bathroom modifications
n
n
Most referrals are relatively straightforward, with opportunities to gradually build your exposure to more complex cases.
n
Less Driving, More Clinical Work: Around 90% of referrals are within the Wollongong and Illawarra region.
n
Some days may involve multiple appointments, while others may be dedicated primarily to reports.
n
Flexibility Around Your Day: There is genuine flexibility around where you start and finish your day.
n
If your first client is close to home, you'll be able to complete reports from home before travelling directly to the appointment.
n
Your week may include:
n
n
- Working from the clinic
n
- Community appointments
n
- WFH report-writing days
n
- Starting or finishing from home depending on your diary
n
n
Support From Experienced Leadership: The Director brings more than 10 years of Occupational Therapy experience across rehabilitation, disability, neurological, physical and psychosocial presentations.
n
The team's approach is centred around compassion, empathy and building a genuine therapeutic relationship with clients, rather than treating people as a referral number.
n
About You You'll ideally have:
n
n
- AHPRA registration as an Occupational Therapist
n
- A current driver's licence and vehicle
n
- Full Australian working rights
n
- Relevant screening checks including NPC, WWCC and NDIS Worker Screening Clearance
n

Early-career through to experienced Occupational Therapists are encouraged to apply.
