Local context
Occupational therapy in Upper Spencer Gulf, South Australia
Port Augusta is the gateway to South Australia's north, and residents here are used to being told services are Adelaide-based.
Telehealth removes the distance from the equation for most of the work: functional assessment, home access review, assistive technology, aged care and NDIS reporting.
Recommendations account for heat, distance from specialist services and the practicalities of getting equipment repaired locally.
Upper Spencer Gulf communities face limited local allied health and long trips south for assessment.

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 Port Augusta 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.
