Telehealth Occupational Therapy

Therapy Without the Travel

Telehealth occupational therapy allows participants to access professional OT services through secure video calls, removing the need for travel and making therapy more accessible for people in remote, regional, or hard-to-reach areas. Telehealth is also a convenient option for participants who prefer the flexibility of connecting from home.

• Secure, private video sessions using encrypted platforms that meet Australian health privacy standards
• No travel required - ideal for participants in regional or remote areas, or those with limited transport options
• Flexible scheduling with reduced wait times and fewer cancellations due to weather or transport issues
• Continuity of care when in-person sessions are not possible due to illness or other circumstances

What Can Be Delivered via Telehealth?

Many occupational therapy services can be effectively delivered through telehealth. Our therapists adapt their approach to ensure sessions are engaging and productive, using screen sharing, visual demonstrations, and guided activities to work towards your goals.

• Goal setting, therapy planning, and progress reviews
• Life skills coaching including meal planning, budgeting, and routine building
• Support worker and carer training on strategies and programs
• Environmental assessments using video walk-throughs of your home

NDIS Funded and Technically Supported

Telehealth occupational therapy can be funded through the NDIS under Capacity Building - Daily Activities, at the same rate as in-person sessions. We provide technical support to help participants and their support networks set up and connect to video sessions with confidence. All you need is a device with a camera and an internet connection.
