BECOME MORE INDEPENDENT WITH OUR COMPREHENSIVE OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY SUPPORTS
Occupational Therapy
We work closely with you to prescribe occupational therapies that allow you to get back into the community and participate in normal everyday activities. Our skilled occupational therapists also have the ability to help family, friends and carers in your support network learn the skills they need to assist you on a day to day basis. Depending on your individual requirements, our occupational therapists can provide supports that help with getting out in the community, cooking, self-care, study or getting back to work. When you come in for a consultation with one of breakthru’s friendly therapists, we’ll begin assessing what you can comfortably do right now, and work with you to realise your potential and work towards your individual goals. At breakthru we strongly believe that with the right people and supports around you, it’s possible to achieve anything you set your mind to. By leaning on your support network and breaking your goal down into manageable steps, we’re confident you’ll see a noticeable improvement in your quality of life in no time. Please note this service is only available to customers aged 16 years and over.
