Mobile OT in Bulleen

Occupational Therapy at Home in Bulleen

Bulleen sits between the Yarra River and Doncaster, with a mix of post-war homes and newer townhouses. We visit clients at home across the suburb, from the streets near Heide Museum of Modern Art to the homes around Bulleen Road and Manningham Road.

Many older Bulleen homes have step-up entries and original bathrooms with shower-over-bath set-ups, so bathroom and entry modifications are common OT recommendations here.

Coming home from the Austin Hospital or the Royal Talbot Rehabilitation 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 Bulleen.

Adults

Adult Occupational Therapy in Bulleen

Most of the people we see in Bulleen 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 52-year-old in Bulleen with a spinal cord injury is moving home from rehabilitation. Our OT assesses the house for wheelchair access, recommends a ramp and a step-free shower and prescribes a shower commode so he can return home safely.
