Mobile OT in Albert Park

Occupational Therapy at Home in Albert Park

We visit adults and children at home across Albert Park (3206) and the wider City of Port Phillip. Port Phillip's bayside suburbs are close to the Alfred Hospital, with many residents living in apartments and older flats.

Lift access, small bathrooms and getting around by tram are common focus areas for our Port Phillip clients.

Coming home from The Alfred or St Vincent's Hospital? Our OT can check home safety, equipment and daily routines so you settle back in safely.

Exercare's occupational therapists help adults, older people and children do more for themselves at home and in the community. We have no waitlist and we work with NDIS participants and Support at Home clients in Albert Park.

Adults

Adult Occupational Therapy in Albert Park

Most of the people we see in Albert Park are adults. We help with personal care, cooking and home tasks, routines and memory supports, fatigue management, community access, returning to work or study and home safety.

Example: A 29-year-old in Albert Park is finding it harder to shower safely. Our OT assesses the bathroom, trials a shower chair and handheld shower and recommends grab rails, so she can shower independently again.
