Support services we provide in Bundoora
-
Occupational therapy
An NDIS OT in Bundoora is able to work with children and adults to make everyday activities easier to manage and support greater independence. Therapy can focus on the tasks and routines that are important to the participant or in whatever aspect of life they need it most.
Depending on individual needs, sessions may address self-care, sensory processing, mobility, motor skills and daily routines. Practical strategies are tailored to each person’s goals, abilities and environment.
-
Positive behaviour support
Positive Behaviour Support looks at what may be contributing to behaviours of concern and identifies practical ways to support positive change. Our practitioners consider factors such as communication, routines, relationships and the participant’s environment.
We work closely with participants, families and support people to develop individualised strategies that aim to reduce behaviours of concern, build useful skills and create more supportive everyday environments.
-
Functional capacity assessment
A functional capacity assessment provides a detailed understanding of how a participant manages different activities in their everyday life. It can identify strengths, challenges and areas where additional assistance may be beneficial.
As part of our disability support services in Bundoora, Ability Action Australia clinicians assess the participant’s functional abilities and prepare a report outlining their findings and recommendations. This can provide useful evidence to inform NDIS planning and document the participant’s functional support needs.
-
Speech pathology
Our speech pathologists work with participants of different ages to address communication and swallowing needs that may affect daily life. Support is tailored around how the participant communicates and the areas they would like to work on.
Therapy may focus on speech clarity, understanding and expressing language, fluency, social communication or swallowing. Strategies can also be incorporated into familiar routines and environments between sessions.
-
Exercise physiology
Exercise physiology uses tailored physical activity to help participants work towards their health, movement and everyday activity goals. Programs are developed around the person’s abilities, interests and individual circumstances.
Sessions may focus on areas such as strength, endurance, balance and mobility or assist participants in managing chronic health conditions. Our exercise physiologists can also provide strategies for incorporating suitable physical activity into everyday routines.
-
Physiotherapy
Our physiotherapists work with participants to improve movement and physical function in ways that support their everyday activities. Therapy is adapted to each person’s abilities and the physical goals they want to achieve.
Sessions may address mobility, strength, balance, coordination and movement. Participants may also receive exercises and practical strategies from their Ability Action Australia physio in Bundoora to use outside appointments, which helps them continue working towards their goals.
-
Psychology
Psychology can support participants with their emotional wellbeing and help them develop practical ways to manage challenges in everyday life. Sessions are shaped around the individual’s circumstances, experiences and goals.
Using evidence-based approaches, our psychologists in Bundoora can assist with areas such as anxiety, mood, emotional regulation, behaviour and significant life changes. Family members and other support people may also be involved where appropriate.
-
Early childhood support (Key Worker)
Our early childhood team in Bundoora helps young children with developmental delays or disability develop skills through play, learning and familiar activities. Each family works with a Key Worker who gets to know their child’s strengths, needs and interests, while coordinating input from other professionals where required.
Key Workers also work alongside parents, carers and educators to find ways to encourage communication, social interaction, movement and independence. These strategies can be incorporated into activities at home, childcare or kindergarten, giving children opportunities to practise new skills as they grow.
