ABOUT OUR
Functional Capacity Assessments
NDIS Functional Capacity Assessments (FCA) completed by an experienced Occupational Therapist (OT) servicing Adelaide and country South Australia. We pride ourselves on being friendly and attentive to our clients needs, with a focus on the individuality of each client encompassing the complexity of their physical, cognitive and behavioural needs identifying barriers to occupation, prominent symptoms of our client’s disabilities, and creating adaptive and compensatory strategies. This makes up our high quality reports focused on developing our client’s functional capacity and overall wellbeing.
