Occupational Therapy at Home in Hallam
We visit adults and children at home across Hallam (3803) and the wider City of Casey. Casey is a large, growing area in Melbourne's south-east, served by Casey Hospital in Berwick and Dandenong Hospital.
We see many young families and adults in Casey, from children's sensory and school readiness needs to adult daily living skills.
Coming home from Dandenong Hospital or Casey 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 Hallam.
Assessments anywhere: functional capacity assessments and other OT assessments are available in Hallam. Ongoing in-home therapy depends on OT availability, so contact us to confirm.
Adult Occupational Therapy in Hallam
Most of the people we see in Hallam 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 31-year-old in Hallam is finding it harder to shower safely. Our OT assesses the bathroom, trials a shower chair and handheld shower and recommends grab rails, so he can shower independently again.
