Who we help

Adults & Older Adults

Our work is not just for children. We support adults and older adults across communication, voice, swallowing and everyday living — in clinic, at home, or by telehealth.

Speech pathology for adults

  • Communication after stroke or with a neurological condition (aphasia, apraxia, dysarthria, cognitive-communication changes)
  • Voice — hoarseness, vocal fatigue, and voice changes with Parkinson’s (SPEAK OUT!)
  • Swallowing (dysphagia) — safe eating and drinking, and mealtime management
  • Stuttering and communication confidence

Occupational therapy for adults

  • Daily living — self-care, cooking, getting around the home and community
  • Falls risk, home safety and access
  • Equipment and assistive technology assessments
  • Home modification assessments, minor and complex
  • Functional capacity assessments for NDIS planning

How it is funded

Depending on your age and situation, adult services may be supported through NDIS, a Home Care Package, Medicare care plans, private health cover, or private paying. If you are not sure what applies, call and we will talk it through.
