Mobile OT in Clarinda

Occupational Therapy at Home in Clarinda

We visit adults and children at home across Clarinda (3169) and the wider City of Kingston. Kingston's suburbs are close to the Kingston Centre in Cheltenham, a major rehabilitation and aged care health service.

After rehabilitation, the right equipment and home changes help people stay independent.

Coming home from Monash Medical Centre 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 Clarinda.

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