Mobile OT in Black Rock

Occupational Therapy at Home in Black Rock

We visit adults and children at home across Black Rock (3193) and the wider City of Bayside. Bayside's suburbs are served by Sandringham Hospital, with a mix of family homes, units and townhouses.

Home safety, bathroom set-up and community access are common OT goals for our Bayside clients.

Coming home from Sandringham Hospital or the Kingston Centre? 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 Black Rock.

Assessments anywhere: functional capacity assessments and other OT assessments are available in Black Rock. Ongoing in-home therapy depends on OT availability, so contact us to confirm.
