NDIS Occupational Therapy Melbourne
At Flourish Health, our Occupational Therapists help NDIS participants across Melbourne build independence, confidence, and daily living skills.
We understand that every participant’s goals are unique — whether that’s getting dressed safely, returning to work, accessing the community, or modifying your home.
Our Melbourne-based OTs provide Functional Capacity Assessments (FCA), home modification reports, assistive technology recommendations, and ongoing therapy that’s flexible and person-centred.

How Occupational Therapy fits within the NDIS
The NDIS funds Occupational Therapy under Capacity Building – Improved Daily Living and, in some cases, Capital Supports (for equipment or home modifications).
Your OT helps demonstrate what supports you need by:
-
Assessing your current functional capacity
-
Identifying barriers to independence
-
Recommending practical solutions (equipment, supports, or environmental changes)
-
Providing clear, evidence-based reports that align with NDIA guidelines
We’re experienced in writing reports for plan access, plan reviews, and change-of-circumstance requests — always in clear, participant-friendly language.
