Services Included

Daily Living Support

Our online OTs work with families and caregivers to develop strategies that improve essential daily skills, such as dressing, eating, and personal hygiene to promote independence and self-confidence.

Sensory Integration Support

For those with sensory processing challenges, our therapists incorporate sensory integration techniques into the therapy plan, which can help in managing sensitivity to noise, light, and other environmental factors.

Guidance on Adaptive Equipment

We recommend and provide training on the use of adaptive tools that can make daily tasks more manageable. These tools can be crucial in enabling people to perform tasks independently, reducing frustration and reliance on others.

Cognitive and Behavioral Strategies

Interventions aimed at improving cognitive functioning and managing behaviours to help people with intellectual disabilities to navigate social situations, follow routines, and develop problem-solving skills.

Teletherapy and Family Collaboration

Real-time collaboration with family members and caregivers during online sessions to ensure everyone involved in the care process is on the same page, reinforcing consistency and progress.

Much More than a Service

With our innovative platform, experienced professionals, and commitment to personalised care, we're not just providing services - we're changing lives.
