Frequently asked questions about our aged care OT services

When it comes to occupational therapy tailored to older adults, you might have questions about how it works, who’s eligible, what’s included, and more.

We’ve answered some of the most frequently asked questions our team gets below, and encourage you to get in touch with us if you’d like to chat through your options or circumstances.

Do you work with aged care providers who want to outsource occupational therapy?

Yes, we partner with aged care providers across Perth who need a trusted, flexible OT service for their clients. Whether you require one-off aged care OT assessments, regular in-home visits, or support for care planning and equipment prescription, we can tailor our services to suit your needs. Reach out to discuss how we can support your team.

What areas of Perth do you provide aged care OT?

We provide in-home aged care occupational therapy across the Perth metro area. If you’re outside the metro region, get in touch and we’ll let you know if we can assist, or we’ll or recommend a local provider.

What’s included in-home aged care OT assessment?

An in-home aged care OT assessment includes a review of your daily routines, mobility, safety, and function, as well as your home environment. We’ll identify any risks, barriers, or support needs and provide practical recommendations; from equipment and home modifications, to falls prevention strategies and more.

Who is eligible for aged care occupational therapy services?

Our services are available to any older adults who would benefit from occupational therapy, whether you’re accessing public aged care funding (such as CHSP or HCP), or are privately funded. You don’t need a referral; all you need to do is reach out and we’ll help guide the next steps.

Can occupational therapy help with dementia?

Yes, absolutely. Occupational therapy is valuable at any stage of dementia care, from early memory concerns through to advanced care needs.

Routine and Structure: We help establish routines and environments that support memory and reduce confusion. Familiar cues and simplified layouts can make daily tasks less frustrating.
Safety Planning: As cognition changes, home safety becomes critical. We identify risks (falls, wandering, kitchen hazards) and recommend practical modifications that maintain independence while reducing risk.
Cognitive Strategies: We work with you and your family to develop strategies that support memory, attention, and decision-making. These can slow decline and help maintain confidence.
Equipment and Modification: Assistive devices and home adjustments can compensate for memory loss or reduced ability. Simpler environments often reduce agitation and anxiety.
Supporting Family Carers: We provide practical advice to family members on how to support daily activities, manage challenging behaviours, and reduce carer stress. Your family is part of the care team.

We understand dementia is a journey, not a destination. Our approach is tailored to where your relative is now, with strategies that evolve as their needs change.
