It is important to select an OT that has the relevant experience and can appropriately meet participant needs,  as OT’s vary widely in the types of services they can offer.  The above information provides an overview of the type of work we do.  Please be aware we do not provide services to children.  We generally don’t see participants with severe intellectual or physical disability as they require specialist services. We also do not assess and prescribe for specialised equipment and home modifications.
