Occupational therapy at your home in Newtown: assessments, equipment and home set-up, delivered by our partner clinic MoveWell Allied Health across Inner West & the City.
Every visit comes to your home, residence or workplace in Newtown 2042.
Occupational therapy in a Newtown terrace starts with the width. Many of these houses are only about four metres across, so a walking frame or a shower chair has to fit where there is very little room. Our occupational therapists, through our partner clinic MoveWell Allied Health, assess how you manage at home, then recommend equipment and home set-up that suit the space, such as slim grab rails, an extra stair rail or a perching stool. In Newtown's apartment blocks the focus is more often building access and bathroom set-up. The aim is a safer home and the confidence to keep living independently. NDIS OT is billed to your plan at NDIS Pricing Schedule rates, and private visits need no GP referral.
Private OT assessments are charged at the listed hourly rate, with assistive technology assessment and prescription at $160 per hour. NDIS occupational therapy is billed to your plan at the NDIS Pricing Schedule rates.
Visits cover Newtown and every suburb across Inner West & the City, from Marrickville, Newtown and Leichhardt to Burwood, Strathfield, Concord and the inner city.
Often, yes, but it takes careful measuring. A narrow Victorian terrace leaves very little spare room, so off-the-shelf equipment does not always fit. Our occupational therapists, through our partner clinic MoveWell Allied Health, measure the space and recommend equipment that works in it, such as a slimline shower stool or a fold-down seat, plus where grab rails would help most. Private OT visits need no GP referral.
Yes. You can book OT at home in Newtown through your NDIS plan or privately. If OT is part of your plan, we bill your plan at NDIS Pricing Schedule rates. Otherwise you can book a private assessment directly, and the listed rate is shown when you book. Newtown terraces are often very narrow, so our occupational therapists, through our partner clinic MoveWell Allied Health, recommend equipment such as a slim grab rail or a perching stool that suits the space.
In a Newtown apartment, an occupational therapist usually looks first at building access and how the bathroom is set up, then at the daily tasks that have become difficult. You receive clear written recommendations on equipment and home set-up that support independent living. Many of Newtown's older residents live in public housing flats and townhouses built in the 1960s and 70s, and the same assessment applies there.
