Local context
Occupational therapy in Far West New South Wales
Broken Hill is closer to Adelaide than to Sydney, and allied health access reflects that isolation. Residents regularly travel interstate for appointments, or wait for a visiting service that may be months away.
Telehealth is a genuinely good fit here. Interviews, functional observation with a support person, assistive technology recommendations, home access review and report writing can all be completed online.
Because we already travel to South Australia, Broken Hill face-to-face work can sometimes be planned alongside Riverland and Adelaide trips.
Far West NSW has very limited resident allied health, and interstate travel for a single appointment is common.

How it works
From referral to report
Send the referral
Participants, families, support coordinators, plan managers and GPs can all refer online, by phone or by email. Tell us you are in Broken Hill so we can plan the right mix of online and in-person support.
We make contact
We call to confirm goals, funding, urgency and what has already been tried, and answer any questions about how Telehealth actually works.
Start online, usually within 7 business days
After a referral is accepted, first appointments are usually available within 7 business days — no waiting for the next visiting clinic.
Add a face-to-face visit only where it helps
If part of the assessment truly needs to happen in person, we confirm the next visit to the region and complete everything else online in the meantime.
