What does an NDIS Occupational Therapist do?


An OT helps participants improve their ability to perform everyday activities, build independence, and access the supports they need. They can assess functional capacity, recommend assistive technology, and create therapy plans tailored to goals.



How do I know if I’m eligible for OT under the NDIS?


If your disability significantly impacts your ability to complete daily activities, you may be eligible. Eligibility is confirmed by the NDIA when creating or reviewing your NDIS plan.

Can Occupational Therapy be delivered at home?

Yes. OTs can provide in-home therapy, complete assessments within your environment, and recommend home modifications to improve safety and independence.



Does the NDIS fund assistive technology through OT?

Yes. If an OT assesses that you require assistive technology (e.g., mobility aids, communication devices), they can complete the necessary assessments and reports to apply for funding.



What is a Functional Capacity Assessment?

It’s a detailed assessment by an OT to understand how your disability impacts daily life, your level of independence, and what supports are required. This is often used for NDIS plan reviews.




How often will I see my Occupational Therapist?

Frequency depends on your goals and needs. Some participants have weekly sessions, while others may need only assessments or occasional therapy.

Can children access NDIS Occupational Therapy?

Yes. Paediatric OTs work with children to develop skills like play, social participation, school readiness, fine motor skills, and sensory regulation.



How do I book an NDIS Occupational Therapy session?

You can book directly through our website, speak to our support team, or ask your NDIS Support Coordinator to arrange a referral.

In their words

What Families Have to Say

"My support worker, Sarah, has been an absolute lifesaver. She helps with my daily routine, from meal prep to getting to appointments on time, and even takes me on short walks to the park. Sarah is patient and really listens to what I need. I’m so grateful for the support she provides – I feel more confident knowing she’s there."
Emily T, Brunswick, Melbourne
"We hired a gardener from Beyond Health Services, and Jason has completely transformed our backyard. He removed the weeds, trimmed the hedges, and even installed a vegetable garden that my wife and I have been enjoying. The space looks so much better, and we couldn’t be happier with his attention to detail."
Jason M, St Albans, Melbourne
"The cleaning service from Beyond continues to impress us. Every corner of our home gets attention – they even scrubbed out stains from the carpets that we thought would never come out. I always look forward to coming home to a fresh, spotless house after their visit. Their reliability is what sets them apart."
Sophia R, Sunshine West, Melbourne
"I’m so grateful for Liam, the driver who takes my father to his medical appointments. Liam is always on time, helps my dad in and out of the car, and even waits with him at the doctor’s office. It’s reassuring to know my dad is in such capable hands when I can’t be there myself."
Adam G, Windsor, Melbourne
"These guys sent over a fantastic speech therapist to help my son with his communication challenges. Kate was incredibly patient, using fun and interactive techniques to get him to open up. In just a few weeks, we’ve seen a noticeable improvement in his speech, and he’s more confident in expressing himself. We’re so thankful for Kate’s expertise and warmth."
Sarah W, Werribee, Melbourne
