Granville Aged Care Occupational Therapy Industry Leaders
What Is Aged Care Occupational Therapy?
Aged care occupational therapy is occupational therapy tailored to the needs of older Australians. It focuses on supporting older adults to keep doing the everyday activities that matter to them safely, confidently and with as much independence as possible, in the environments where they live and spend their time.
At Physio Inq, our AHPRA-registered aged care occupational therapists deliver assessment and support in the home and in residential aged care, providing recommendations that are immediately relevant to the client's actual environment. From home safety assessments and equipment prescription to daily living retraining and cognitive support, our approach is practical, respectful and focused on the individual's goals. We work with clients accessing the Support at Home program (formerly Home Care Package), the Commonwealth Home Support Programme (CHSP) and private funding.
Aged care occupational therapists can help with
- Home safety assessment and fall prevention recommendations
- Home modification assessment and reports for funding applications
- Assistive equipment prescription, including bathroom aids, grab rails and mobility aids
- Activities of daily living (ADL) assessment and retraining
- Cognitive assessment and daily routine support
- Dementia care strategies and environmental modifications
- Driving assessments and community transport planning
- Carer and family education and training
- Fatigue and energy conservation strategies
- Coordination with Support at Home providers and case managers
Every assessment and treatment plan is developed in consultation with the client, their family or carer and the broader care team.
