Mobile OT in Pearcedale

Occupational Therapy at Home in Pearcedale

We visit adults and children at home across Pearcedale (3912) and the wider Mornington Peninsula Shire. The Mornington Peninsula suburbs we visit are served by Frankston and Rosebud hospitals.

Planning ahead, so equipment and home changes are in place before they're urgently needed, is especially valuable for our Peninsula clients.

Coming home from Frankston 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 Pearcedale.

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