​Occupational Therapy
​

Our Occupational Therapists primarily serve the Veteran community under the Department of Veterans' Affairs (DVA). This includes home assessments for personal alarm systems, falls prevention assessments, pressure sore prevention, equipment to help with mobility and transfers, and home modifications to the built environments, such as the addition of grab rails and ramps. This helps our clients move from dependence to independence, maximising wellbeing and quality of life. We offer home visits in the Southern Highlands and also in the Goulburn area.

​Fees & Referrals
 
With a D904 referral (DVA referral from your GP), DVA will cover required occupational therapy consultations, approved home modifications, and any prescribed equipment required to simplify daily tasks.
Private and Enhanced Primary Care (EPC) referrals are also accepted in some circumstances and, if eligible, a rebate may be provided. LifePsychles are also registered with the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) for occupational therapy.
