Local context
Occupational therapy in North West Tasmania
Burnie and the surrounding North West have some of the thinnest allied health coverage in Tasmania, and participants here know the waitlist reality well.
Our Telehealth model starts the work within days: understanding daily function, support needs, housing suitability and goals, then producing the report your plan review, SIL request or equipment application needs.
Being online does not mean being distant — we see your actual home, your actual routines, and the people who support you, which is exactly what good occupational therapy assessment is built on.
North West Tasmania has very few resident occupational therapists relative to NDIS demand, and services can disappear when a clinician leaves.

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 Burnie 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.
