Support services we provide in Tamworth
-
Occupational Therapy
Occupational therapy focuses on making everyday tasks and routines more manageable for children and adults. Support is based on what matters to each participant and where they would like to develop their skills.
Our occupational therapists provide practical strategies suited to the participant’s abilities, surroundings and everyday activities. Your OT in Tamworth can help you to work on personal care, sensory regulation, daily routines or fine and gross motor skills.
-
Functional Capacity Assessment
A functional capacity assessment examines how a participant completes day-to-day activities across different areas of their life. It can identify existing strengths, functional challenges and areas where additional assistance may be useful.
Following the assessment, our clinicians prepare a comprehensive report with their findings and recommendations. This can provide evidence for NDIS planning and funding discussions and help determine which supports may be suited to the participant’s needs.
-
Early Childhood Support (Key Worker)
Ability Action Australia early childhood key workers help young children build skills through play, daily routines and activities they already enjoy. They work closely with parents, carers and other important people in the child’s life to understand what they need and the goals they are working towards.
Support can take place at home, childcare or in the community, with practical strategies families can continue using between sessions.
-
Positive Behaviour Support (Telehealth only)
Our Positive Behaviour Support works with participants to understand what may be contributing to behaviours of concern. This involves looking at their communication, environment, routines and individual needs to identify possible triggers and underlying causes.
Using this understanding, practitioners develop behaviour support plans with practical strategies aimed at reducing behaviours of concern, building useful skills and improving quality of life.
