Who: Open invite to all individuals with a disability, their families, friends and carers; as well as allied health professionals, NDIS plan managers and support workers, medical specialist, rehab consultants, case managers, community group representatives and anyone that works with individuals who have a physical or neurological disability.
What: We would like to provide our colleagues in the healthcare industry and people with a disability the opportunity to come and see our facility, to exhibit our state-of-the-art equipment, to introduce our passionate team and to allow everyone to gain an insight into how we are assisting individuals with a physical or neurological condition improve their lives.
Our programs include:
• Activity Based Therapy (ABT) – An individually designed exercise program aimed to improve function, independence and mobility. This program involves repetitive, task-specific, dynamic and weight bearing activities all performed out of the wheelchair (where applicable). Some of the goals we work towards range from bed mobility, transfer training, standing or walking tolerance.
• Small group training – Groups of three that exercise in an engaging and motivating group environment. Groups focus on a mutual goal of either strength, cardiovascular fitness, balance, fine or gross motor skills.
• Gym – A community group program for health and wellbeing, empowering people with a disability to maintain a healthy lifestyle and encouraging social participation.
Exoskeleton in action!
We will also be exhibiting the Rex Bionics© exoskeleton system at the Open Day!
Recently, we have been trialling this unit at our Menai site and clients have been thoroughly enjoying its use! For more information on Rex, click here.
We offer a range of different programs at varying intensities, in order to target our clients’ functional goals, and to suit varying budgets and lifestyle needs. We are also an NDIS registered provider in multiple categories, so can work with you to utilise your funding to achieve your goals.
