Occupational Therapy at Home in Rosanna
Rosanna is a leafy residential suburb with a village shopping strip near Rosanna Station and easy access to the Austin Hospital. We visit clients at home across Rosanna.
Quiet residential streets and the local village make Rosanna a good setting for practising community access, from walking to the shops to catching the train.
Coming home from the Austin Hospital or the Bundoora 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 Rosanna.
Adult Occupational Therapy in Rosanna
Most of the people we see in Rosanna 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 24-year-old in Rosanna with autism wants to travel to TAFE on his own. Our OT breaks the trip into steps, practises the train journey from Rosanna Station and sets up visual supports for what to do if a service is delayed.
