I'm Gemma, an Occupational Therapist, and I have the pleasure of working with young adults through to older adults. I especially enjoy helping those with complex neurological conditions like brain injuries, strokes, or Parkinson's, as well as supporting older adults in staying safe and comfortable in their own homes. Building rapport and creating a comfortable, supportive environment is at the heart of my practice.

How Our Gold Coast OT Team Supports You
Support at Home Clinical Care
Occupational therapy sits within the clinical care category of Support at Home, fully government funded with no means-tested contribution. We provide functional and home safety assessments, ADL retraining and reports for care partners and providers.
AT-HM Scheme Assessments
Assessment, prescription and clinical reporting for assistive technology and home modifications funded through the AT-HM scheme, from grab rails and ramps to hospital beds and stair lifts.
Falls Prevention & Home Safety
Whole-person home safety assessments that look at the person, the task and the environment, producing a plan that addresses equipment, modifications, technique and the right amount of support.
Reablement After Hospital
Short-term, goal-focused reablement following hospital discharge, illness, surgery or a fall, rebuilding confidence and function and putting the right equipment in place before problems set in.
Aged Care Funding
Occupational Therapy Under Support at Home
Occupational therapy sits within the clinical care category of the Support at Home program, which replaced Home Care Packages from 1 November 2025.
That makes OT one of the most accessible and most useful services in an older person's Support at Home budget. Our Gold Coast Occupational Therapists provide a full range of clinical and home safety services, and we also work with residential aged care providers across the Gold Coast and accept private referrals from people who would rather not wait for funding to be approved.

Keeping You Safe at Home
Falls Prevention, Reablement & Cognitive Support
Falls Prevention & Home Safety
A fall is rarely caused by one thing. It is usually the combination of reduced strength, a medication side effect, poor lighting, an unfamiliar rug and a task the person shouldn't have been doing alone.
Our home safety and falls prevention assessments look at the whole picture, the person, the task and the environment, and produce a plan that addresses all three. That may include equipment, modifications, changes to how a task is done, referral to physiotherapy for strength and balance work, education for family, or a change to the support schedule.
After Hospital: Reablement
Coming home after a hospital admission is the point at which many older people lose independence permanently. Early occupational therapy makes a measurable difference.
We provide short-term, goal-focused reablement following hospital discharge, illness, surgery or a fall, rebuilding confidence and function in showering, dressing, meal preparation, mobility and community access, and putting the right equipment in place before problems set in. Referrals from hospital discharge planners, transition care teams and aged care providers are welcome.
Living Well with Dementia & Cognitive Change
Cognitive change affects function long before it affects memory alone. Our Occupational Therapists assess how dementia, mild cognitive impairment, stroke or other conditions are affecting safety, routine, decision-making and daily activity, and provide:

Assistive Technology and Home Modifications (AT-HM) Scheme
The AT-HM scheme provides funding for equipment and home modifications that is separate from, and upfront of, the rest of a person's Support at Home budget. It is one of the most under-used entitlements in aged care, largely because people do not know it exists. Funding is provided across three tiers within a 12-month access period:
Funding is provided across three tiers within a 12-month access period:
Low tier
up to $500
Medium tier
up to $2,000
High tier
up to $15,000
More complex equipment and any home modifications generally require assessment and prescription by a health professional, usually an occupational therapist. That is where we come in. Our Occupational Therapists complete the assessment, document the clinical justification, specify what is required, and prepare the report needed to support the funding request, then review the outcome once the work is complete to make sure it actually works for the person.
