Assessments, occupational therapy, and learning support — with clear pathways for children, families, and older adults.
01 / Assessments & reports
A clearer picture of your needs.
Understand everyday strengths, challenges, and support needs through an assessment and written recommendations.
Functional Capacity Assessments
An FCA looks at how a person manages everyday activities and what assistance they may need. It may suit someone needing a detailed picture of their current abilities and support needs for planning or review.
Housing letters of support
A written explanation of how a person's functional needs relate to their living environment. This may help someone explain why particular housing features or arrangements matter to their daily life. A letter does not guarantee a housing or funding outcome.
Aged-care assessments
OT assessments explore daily routines, function, and the home environment for older adults. They may suit someone experiencing changes in independence or needing recommendations for everyday support. These are OT assessments, rather than government aged-care eligibility assessments.
02 / Occupational therapy for older adults
More of what matters to you.
Eden plans to offer assessment and support around daily activities, participation, and living at home. Depending on individual needs, an OT assessment may consider personal care, everyday household tasks, mobility during activities, the home environment, and whether equipment or practical changes could help.
What may a mobile visit involve?
A visit may start with a conversation about your routines and goals, followed by looking at relevant activities and spaces in your home. With your agreement, family or carers can contribute. Recommendations and next steps are discussed in relation to your needs. Visit locations, exact assessment options, and equipment or modification services will be confirmed by the practice.
Support for skills relevant to daily life and participation at home, preschool, and school. Depending on a child's goals and the OT's assessment, this may include handwriting and visual, cognitive, and social skills.
Support is considered in the context of the child's everyday activities, with families involved in identifying meaningful priorities. Specific age ranges, session settings, and available interventions will be confirmed.
Support with developing skills and routines that may help children participate in preschool or school. Goals may relate to managing daily routines, engaging in activities, early handwriting skills, or participating alongside other children, where appropriate to the OT's scope.
Readiness is individual. The focus is on participation and useful everyday skills, rather than a promise that a child will reach a particular milestone or academic outcome.
Tutoring offers additional academic learning support. Occupational therapy addresses participation and functional goals; tutoring focuses on learning school subjects and practising academic skills.
Subject areas, year levels, format, and availability are still being decided. These details will be listed here once confirmed, so families can choose the service that matches their needs.
