How Our Sydney OT Team Supports You
Home Safety & Falls Prevention
In-home assessment for older Australians to reduce falls risk, prescribe equipment and support safe, independent living in the environments that matter most.
Assistive Technology & Home Modifications
Assessment, trial and prescription of assistive technology, plus minor and complex home modifications, with the reports funding requests require.
Functional Capacity Assessments
Comprehensive FCAs that go beyond diagnosis to show how disability affects everyday life, with evidence-based recommendations to support NDIS funding.
Daily Living & Capacity Building
Goal-directed therapy that builds real independence in self-care, household tasks, community access, routine and decision-making.
Aged Care
Occupational Therapy for Older Australians in Sydney
Most of what forces an older person out of their home is practical. A step at the entry. A shower without a rail. A bed too low to stand up from. A kitchen that has quietly become unsafe. Our job is to find those risks before they become a fall, an admission or a permanent move, and then fix them.
Sydney housing makes this specific. Terraces with stairs and no ground-floor bathroom, walk-up apartments without lifts, older units with narrow doorways and step-over showers, and homes with steep entries on sloping blocks. What works in one property will not work in another, which is exactly why the assessment happens on site.
What we assess and provide
Support at Home funding
Occupational therapy sits within the clinical care category of the Support at Home program, which replaced Home Care Packages from 1 November 2025. Clinical care is fully funded by the government regardless of income or assets, there is no means-tested contribution for occupational therapy.
Cognitive Change
Living Well with Dementia and Cognitive Change
Cognitive change affects daily 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 environmental modifications that reduce confusion and risk, simplified routines and task set-ups, kitchen, medication and wandering safety strategies, meaningful activity planning, practical education for family and carers, and clear recommendations on the level and type of support required.
NDIS
NDIS Occupational Therapy in Sydney
We also support NDIS participants across greater Sydney. Our Occupational Therapists complete Functional Capacity Assessments, assistive technology and home modification assessments, SIL and SDA reports, housing and living arrangement reports, and provide capacity building therapy for adults with neurological, cognitive, physical and psychosocial disability.
We support self-managed, plan-managed and NDIA-managed participants, and work directly with support coordinators, plan managers and Local Area Coordinators.
Evidence-based recommendations for NDIS funding
A well-prepared Functional Capacity Assessment provides evidence-based recommendations aligned to a participant's goals, which may include:
By clearly linking functional limitations to recommended supports, an FCA helps the NDIS understand the reasonable and necessary funding required.
AT-HM Scheme
Assistive Technology and Home Modifications (AT-HM) Scheme
AT-HM funding sits separate from, and is provided upfront of, the rest of a person's Support at Home budget. It exists specifically to pay for the equipment and modifications that keep people safely at home, and it is regularly left unused because people do not know it is there.
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, with the possibility of more where the evidence supports it
Complex equipment and any home modification generally require assessment and prescription by a health professional, usually an occupational therapist. We complete the assessment, document the clinical justification, specify exactly what is required, prepare the supporting report, and review the outcome once the equipment arrives or the work is finished.
