Living with fatigue can make simple tasks feel exhausting. Our occupational therapists help you plan, pace and set up your day and your home so you can save energy for the things that matter most to you.

Who this is for

• People with chronic health conditions that cause fatigue
• People with neurological conditions such as multiple sclerosis
• People recovering from illness, surgery or a hospital stay
• People with chronic pain or reduced stamina

How we help

• Understanding your daily routine and where your energy goes
• Pacing, planning and prioritising strategies you can use every day
• Simpler ways to do tasks such as showering, dressing, cooking and cleaning
• Home and kitchen set-up to reduce bending, reaching and carrying
• Equipment such as shower chairs, perching stools and trolleys where it helps

Small changes, big difference

Sitting to do tasks, keeping everyday items within easy reach and spreading heavier jobs across the week are simple changes we can tailor to you and your home.

Funding we work with

• NDIS participants who are self-managed or plan-managed (we cannot see NDIA-managed participants)
• Support at Home clients (formerly Home Care Packages), arranged with your provider
• DVA-funded clients
• Private clients

Where we visit

We are a mobile service. We come to your home, school, workplace or community setting across Brisbane North (including Chermside, Aspley, Nundah, Kedron and Stafford), Carindale, Moreton Bay (including Strathpine, North Lakes, Petrie, Redcliffe and Caboolture) and Logan. We do not cover Springfield or Ipswich.

Common questions

Is this the same as exercise therapy?

No. Our focus is on how you do daily tasks and organise your day and home, not on building fitness.
