Questions
Mental Health OT questions
OT looks at how mental health and psychosocial barriers affect routines, participation, self-care, home life, school, work or community tasks.
We can discuss OT support needs and referral context. If there is immediate risk to safety, contact emergency or medical services.
Start with an enquiry. We will confirm the service, location, funding option, and whether an appointment or class is the right next step.
Many people use NDIS, a Medicare referral, DVA, WorkCover, aged-care funding or private funds. Which applies depends on your situation and the service - Tell us what you have and they'll confirm it with you.
Fees depend on the service and your funding pathway. Tell us your funding type in the enquiry and they'll explain the relevant costs up front.
