Accessing Occupational Therapies
As a registered NDIS provider, breakthru help people living with a permanent or significant disability to live their best life. We do this by working closely with not only you, but also your family, friends and other service providers to ensure you’re getting the supports you need.
If you have a new or existing NDIS plan, you may be eligible to access breakthru’s range of occupational therapies under the Improved Daily Living or Improved Relationships supports.
If you don’t have an NDIS plan due to ineligibility or other reasons, we also offer fee-for-service options should you wish to pursue them. Our fees depend heavily upon the type of supports required, so if you’re interested please feel free to contact your local office directly and ask for a quote.
