1.  How do I make an appointment? 

Simply call us at 68364560 or email enquiries@ozworkstherapy.com to fix an appointment. 
We do not require any forms to be filled beforehand.

​2.  What happens at the initial assessment and consultation for my child? 

The initial consultation typically lasts for 60 mins. The main caregiver should be present with the child for this appointment. Please bring along all relevant medical/psychological/therapy/school reports. We will do an interview to take a short history of the child and discuss his/her current support, school needs and challenges. 

We will interact with and observe your child performing in various tasks and movements in a fun and non-threatening environment. 

We will then discuss our assessment and analysis with you and recommend a suitable intervention program.

3.  What is the duration and frequency of subsequent sessions for my child? 

Subsequent follow-up sessions last for 50 mins and are usually scheduled 1x/2x per week, based on your child's needs.

4.  What does a typical Occupational Therapy session for my child look like?

8.  Do you do school visits? 

Yes, school visits are done at the request of parents and when deemed necessary by the therapist. These visits help the therapist further understand the challenges faced by the teachers and the students. The therapist then provides professional input to improve outcomes in the classroom setting. 

Many parents have found these visits beneficial as they open communication links between our therapists and the teachers throughout the child’s time at OzWorks Therapy.
