As we celebrate Occupational Therapy Awareness Week, Therapy Care is putting the spotlight on the incredible contributions our occupational therapists (OTs) make to NDIS participants. Our mission is to ensure the best possible outcomes by creating an environment where our OTs can thrive, which directly impacts the quality of care our participants receive.
This year’s theme, “Occupational Therapy For All,” reflects the core of what we do: supporting participants in overcoming daily challenges, achieving personal goals, and fostering independence. All of our therapists, including Stephanie, Miguel, Lynita, and Glexcie, work passionately to make a positive difference in the lives of the people we support.
Our OTs don’t just deliver services—they build deep, meaningful relationships with participants, working collaboratively to find solutions that are tailored to each individual’s needs.
Stephanie: “For me, the most rewarding part of being an OT is when I see the direct impact of my work on participants’ lives. Whether it’s helping someone gain independence or assisting with adaptive aids, knowing I’ve made a positive change is incredibly fulfilling.”
Miguel: “Occupational therapy is about helping people achieve milestones, no matter how small. Hearing from participants about their progress reminds me how important this work is—whether it’s enabling someone to carry out daily tasks or achieve their long-term goals.”
Occupational therapy at Therapy Care goes beyond physical assistance. It’s about advocating for participants’ overall wellbeing, from their independence at home to their participation in the community. Our OTs ensure that each participant has the tools, knowledge, and support they need to thrive.
Lynita: “Advocacy is a core part of my role. It’s not just about working for participants but working alongside them. Being part of their journey towards independence is incredibly rewarding.”
Glexcie: “Every participant’s journey is different. What matters is meeting them where they are and helping them get to where they want to be. It’s about finding what’s meaningful to them and supporting them to live the life they envision.”
This focus on personalised, compassionate care is what makes our team so effective in empowering participants to live independent, fulfilling lives.
