Working in community health centres and clients' homes, you'll support people with a diverse range of neurological, orthopaedic, chronic and complex health conditions to maximise independence, safety and participation in everyday life.
With opportunities to broaden your expertise through collaboration across specialised services, including aged care and chronic pain management, this role offers variety, challenge and genuine career development.
As an experienced Occupational Therapist, you will provide high-quality assessment and intervention for adults aged 18 years and over, using assistive technology, home modifications and self-management approaches.
