Occupational Therapy - SPLASH

Occupational therapy at Soaring Health Craigieburn aids individuals with injuries or disabilities to lead autonomous lives through tailored interventions and holistic evaluations.

Occupational Therapy Craigieburn

Occupational therapy (O.T.) is a dynamic health profession focused on enhancing the daily experiences of those with injuries, disabilities, or particular health obstacles. It aspires to elevate an individual's capacity to lead an autonomous, active life. In this process, O.T. diligently examines one's abilities, growth areas, and distinct living conditions.

This holistic evaluation paves the way for tailored plans and interventions. For individuals with movement constraints, this might mean home modifications, custom tools for everyday activities, and training sessions to bolster independence and assurance. In instances where cognitive functions are affected, O.T. introduces systematic methods to demystify tasks like financial planning or cooking. Catering to all ages, from young NDIS participants to older adults, a devoted Soaring Health occupational therapist at our Craigieburn facility serves as a beacon, aiding in their community, leisure, and work endeavours. This encompassing strategy guarantees that everyone has the opportunity for a fulfilled life, characterised by greater agency and freedom.

Within the realm of paediatric care, the significance of occupational therapy stands out prominently. It addresses the diverse challenges children may encounter while progressing through their developmental milestones. Whether it's honing fine motor skills, managing daily routines, or comprehending complex tasks, paediatric occupational therapy offers bespoke interventions. These tailored approaches empower children to navigate daily activities with increased confidence, autonomy, and enthusiasm.

For children with disabilities, the role of paediatric occupational therapy becomes indispensable. These young individuals often grapple with heightened challenges, ranging from basic self-care tasks to intricate cognitive or sensory undertakings. Paediatric occupational therapists bring their specialised expertise to the fore, creating individualised strategies that resonate with each child's unique needs. This dedicated focus ensures that every child, irrespective of their specific challenges, is equipped with the skills and strategies to optimise their potential and engage confidently with their surroundings.

Healthcare funding types

NDIS

If you’re living with a disability, you’re probably familiar with the challenges of accessing the help you need. Not only can the required frequency of therapy can make paying fees unaffordable, funding provisions and onerous application processes can further delay treatment. At Soaring Health, we recognize the importance of accessing the therapeutic services you need, when you need them. As a registered NDIS provider, Soaring Health’s practitioners treat eligible participants under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). What’s more, our community coordinator and customer service team are well-versed in NDIS requirements and can help you to fast-track access to appropriate treatment.

Medicare

When you suffer chronic pain and persistent medical conditions, it can be hard to keep up with healthcare costs. Financial worries may cause you to forgo treatment that would relieve debilitating symptoms and improve your level of functioning and quality of life. At Soaring Health, we believe in removing barriers to you receiving the treatment you need. In the case of chronic pain lasting six months or more, we can provide fully bulk-billed treatment for up to five visits per year under Medicare’s Chronic Disease Management plan or CDM (formerly called an EPC), so you can access the treatment services you need, when you need them, without being out of pocket.

T.A.C

Motor vehicle injuries can vary in severity from minor to life-changing. At Soaring Health, we strive to resolve all injuries caused by transport accidents and collisions. The services available to TAC clients at Soaring Health have been purposefully selected and tailored to address the physical, mental and emotional effects of injuries caused by road trauma. Part of our dedicated community division, this program of services is also designed to relieve the financial burden of your accident and ensure that you receive the treatment you need, when you need it, without out-of-pocket fees. You can access our services through the TAC as soon as you have a claim number, meaning you can dedicate your full focus to making an efficient and satisfying recovery.

My Aged Care

Many people associate the Australian government’s My Aged Care program purely with practical assistance with daily tasks and activities. But if you’re aged over 65, you may also be able to access Soaring Health services such as physiotherapy, hydrotherapy and home services fee-free through My Aged Care provisions, to enable you to maintain or regain capacities necessary for daily living, and relieve pain and conditions that may otherwise compromise your quality of life. Depending on your circumstances, you may ask your case manager to request these services as part of your support package.

WORKSAFE

Workplace accidents causing serious injury can be devastating. One minute you’re earning a reliable income. The next you’re plagued by uncertainty over when, or even whether, you’ll be able to return to work – not to mention navigating daily life with pain and physical limitations and facing out-of-pocket medical costs or delaying necessary treatment until your claims are processed. Part of the answer to how well you’ll recover depends on receiving the treatment you need, when you need it, and having a collaborative and integrated team of healthcare professionals who can work together to optimise your recovery and support your return to work and daily life.

D.V.A

Serving to protect one's country is a significant human act, but it can lead to lasting physical and mental challenges for veterans.
