Occasional & Emergency Services for People with Disabilities and Seniors
Flexible, Fast and Accessible Care in the Bayside and Randwick Areas
Our Occasional & Emergency Services program provides quality health maintenance and emergency care for individuals with physical disabilities as well as seniors. We aim to provide preventive measures to reduce ambulance call-outs and hospitalisations, allowing individuals to remain at home, lead healthy lives, and participate fully in the community.
SCIA are extending our hours to support the community better; our night service is now starting at 6pm and on average has a 15-minute response rate.
In addition, SCIA are also encouraging people to register for pre-booked appointments, making it easier for you to seek the care you need.
Our Saturday service remains unchanged from 11am – 3pm.
Our Occasional & Emergency Service is an NDIS registered service and can also be funded through the Commonwealth Home Support Package & My Aged Care for people 65 and over.
Our service is based in Maroubra, New South Wales and is open to people who reside in certain perimeters within the Bayside and Randwick areas.
How to Access Our Services and What We Provide
Our friendly team is here to listen, answer your questions, and guide you towards the right support.
If you have any questions or need more information, please call us on 0411 543 247.
To receive either emergency or pre-booked services from SCIA, we need to gather information via a referral. Referral to the service can be initiated by a person with spinal cord injury or similar disability, family members, health workers, medical practitioners, or spinal clinicians.
Please contact us for further information.
