Our Occupational Therapy services

Support your well-being and development with Occupational Therapy

The Personnel Group provides Occupational Therapy (OT) services to people of all ages at our clinics in Albury, Perth and North and Western suburbs in Melbourne

Our OT service can help support individuals to improve their social skills, emotional skills, and day-to-day activities such as self-care.

As well as offering OT services and children’s occupational therapy in our Melbourne, Albury, and Perth clinics, we can also deliver this service via telehealth, where we work with individuals and caregivers, to support them to achieve their goals.

Our occupational therapy services may include:

  • Functional capacity assessment and development of gross motor skills, such as balance, coordination, and core strength.
  • Developing fine motor skills, such as handwriting, including OT handwriting assessments​
  • Developing social skills, such as making friends, managing conflict, sharing, and turn-taking.
  • Assisting with strategies for sensory and emotional regulation, and
  • Recommendations for resources or equipment that can support the activity in sessions.

We can complete a range of assessments including:

  • Functional Capacity Assessments – Evaluate an individual’s ability to perform daily activities and participate in work or community life.
  • Sensory Profile Assessment OT – Identify sensory processing patterns and how they impact everyday functioning and well-being
  • Fine and Gross Motor Skills Assessments – Assess coordination, strength, and movement abilities needed for daily tasks and mobility.
  • Handwriting Assessment OT – Examine handwriting skills, including grip, legibility, and motor coordination, to support learning and communication.

Funding

We accept NDIS funding for self and plan-managed participants, Medicare, or privately funded appointments for our functional capacity assessments and other occupational therapy services.

Frequently Asked Questions


Occupational therapy helps people take part in everyday activities, like getting dressed, preparing meals, or joining in at school or work, especially when physical, emotional or developmental challenges are present. It focuses on practical strategies to support independence and well-being.

If you’re unsure which support is right for you or your child, our team can guide you through your options.

An NDIS functional capacity assessment is an occupational therapy evaluation that helps identify the types of support you may need in daily life. It looks at your ability to manage things like personal care, communication, mobility, social interactions, and decision-making.

This assessment helps the NDIS understand your strengths, challenges, and goals so you can get the right supports in your plan. At The Personnel Group, our friendly occupational therapists take a caring and respectful approach by working with you and your loved ones to build a clear picture of your needs.

  • Having difficulty completing what is needed for your valued roles including looking after your home, engaging with your friends and family, or trying to work or study.
  • Looking to increase your independence or skills with daily tasks.

Our team can also help with handwriting skills, home assessment, or building daily living skills for children and adults.
