Is it getting harder to enjoy the activities that you used to love? If so, our mobile occupational therapy might be the answer.
At Alpha Allied Health we offer mobile occupational therapy in Perth that brings services directly to you in your own home. Our therapists come to you, complete a full assessment, and develop a personalised plan that can help you reclaim your independence and improve your quality of life.
There are many reasons that your everyday tasks or activities can become more challenging. Some of these are physical obstacles, but some might be emotional or even social obstacles. Alpha’s occupational therapists help you manage each of these obstacles, teaching you exercises, techniques and skills to reclaim your independence and improve your overall quality of life.
Because we bring these services directly to you, in your home, you don’t have to deal with the stress of navigating Perth’s highways, spending hours in waiting rooms or managing different facilities for different needs.
We can provide personalised treatments to you in your home, in your aged care facility, in your community centre or even in your workplace. With Alpha you’ll find yourself on an easy path to a more active, independent and enjoyable life.
Occupational therapy can help you overcome obstacles in your daily life. But that’s not all it can do. It can also empower you to live a better life on your own terms.
Our mobile occupational therapy services include:
Our Perth-based occupational therapists can come to your home, living space or working environment to evaluate how you navigate your daily life and the obstacles you may face. Our team will pinpoint improvements that can make your day-to-day activities easier and more enjoyable and the spaces you occupy more suited to your needs.
Your home should be comfortable. But sometimes the places you live or work don’t necessarily work for your life. You might find it a struggle to get up stairs, or find carpeting a challenge. Our occupational therapists come into your spaces, make assessments based on your unique needs and recommend changes that will make your life easier and your home and work more pleasant to be in.
Our ultimate goal is to support you to be able to tackle your daily activities in comfort.
Our occupational therapists are experts in cutting-edge equipment and technologies in the occupational therapy industry. We understand how to use them to to boost your mobility, optimise your independence and make your daily life simpler. We’ll work with you to ensure you get the right equipment for your needs.
Improving your fine motor skills makes daily tasks – like writing, eating and grasping objects – easier. And improving those fine motor skills can make your life easier (and more enjoyable) as well.
Hand therapy can improve your fine motor skills, and it’s simple to access with our in-home occupational therapy services.
Knowledge is the key to maintaining your independence. Our team provides valuable education and training that can help you understand where your risks might be and how to better set up your home and work spaces.
As mobile occupational therapists we come to you, and can educate you on falls prevention, manual handling, energy conservation techniques and many other topics. This can be useful for you, your family and your support and care workers, if needed.
If you have any concerns about your cognitive skills – perhaps you’ve suffered a stroke, or you just feel the natural impacts of aging – our mobile occupational therapy team can help.
We conduct thorough cognitive assessments and identify areas where you might benefit from some additional support. We then create a personalised plan that will help enhance your memory, thinking skills and overall cognitive function so you can enjoy a better life for longer.
Our driving assessments are designed to help you maintain your independence while ensuring your safety on the road. Conducted by experienced occupational therapists, these evaluations assess your physical, cognitive, and sensory abilities to determine how they may affect your driving.
Whether you’re managing a medical condition, recovering from an injury, or dealing with the effects of aging, we offer a comprehensive assessment tailored to your needs.
At our mobile occupational therapy services, we prioritise our client’s needs and preferences. We offer flexible scheduling to fit your busy schedule, whether you need occupational therapy at home during the day, evening, or even on weekends.
The convenience of our home visit services means you don’t have to worry about transportation or mobility issues. Our highly skilled occupational therapists will come to you, so you can receive an assessment in the comfort of your home.
Physiotherapy focuses on rehabilitating physical injuries and improving mobility through exercises that enhance range of motion, strength and endurance.
Occupational therapy, on the other hand, takes a broader approach. It’s about helping individuals become better able to perform daily activities independently, particularly after an injury or impairment. Occupational therapists use therapeutic treatments, and give recommendations for modifications and equipment that can make daily tasks easier and improve the clients’ quality of life.
Occupational therapists play a crucial role in the lives of people with disabilities. They can help them to choose and use specialised equipment like wheelchairs, mobility scooters and walking aids to assist their clients to move around their homes and other environments.
Occupational therapists can also help adapt their client’s homes to accommodate their individual needs. They can make recommendations to install rails or ramps in their client’s homes to better facilitate safe mobility. Empowering their clients to complete everyday tasks using these aids will boost their confidence and improve their well-being.
Occupational therapists can help older adults become more mobile by helping them create an environment that works well for them, and by helping them to find the right equipment for their situation. This might be a wheelchair, mobility scooter, cane or some other walking aid. OTs also often recommend home modifications, like rails or ramps.
The tools and modifications that our Alpha team suggest can help older Australians move around their homes and other environments more safely and with confidence, reducing the risks or injury or falls and giving our clients the ability to be more independent and mobile.
Alpha Allied Health provides occupational therapy services across all of Perth and surrounds. Get in touch to find out when we can see you next!
Occupational therapy can be a fantastic option if you’re finding it difficult to move around your home or complete daily tasks at home or work whether it’s due to injury, illness, disability or pain. It’s particularly great for seniors or individuals with disabilities who might struggle with tasks like cooking, showering safely or dressing.
That’s completely fine! If an in-person home visit can’t be arranged, we also provide telehealth occupational therapy sessions. You can connect with one of our experienced OTs from anywhere in Australia through a secure video call. It’s a convenient and effective way to receive personalised therapy, support, and guidance — all from the comfort of your own home.
