Occupational Therapy at Home in Flemington
We visit adults and children at home across Flemington (3031) and the wider City of Moonee Valley. Moonee Valley's suburbs sit just north-west of the city, close to the Royal Melbourne Hospital and the Essendon Private Hospital, with Edwardian homes, units and newer apartments.
Front steps, older bathrooms and getting around by tram and train are common OT goals for our Moonee Valley clients.
Coming home from the Royal Melbourne Hospital or Footscray 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 Flemington.
Adult Occupational Therapy in Flemington
Most of the people we see in Flemington 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 Flemington with an intellectual disability wants to shop on her own. Our OT uses a picture shopping list and practises the trip to the local shops each week, fading support over time.
