Inspiro offers Dietetics, Exercise Physiology, Physiotherapy, Podiatry and Occupational Therapy. Most services are clinic based, with home visits offered to housebound clients, except for Podiatry and OT. Podiatry is clinic based only.
OT is primarily a home-based service and is experiencing high demand. Our service is limited to high risk only. Please ensure referrals for OT clearly outline:
• Diagnosis, information regarding any terminal/ palliative or progressive conditions
• Risks associated with pressure care
• Falls – where they occurred, the cause, injuries sustained, assistance and medical input required
• Safety and independence with transfers and mobility
• Cognition
• Existing supports – who they live with, carer information, the sustainability of these arrangements, risks to carers
• Any risks associated with capacity to remain at home
Please note: Referrals without a reason, current support plan or clear information regarding rationale will not be accepted.
