Home Visits From Allied Health: What to Expect
Allied health services are more accessible than ever, thanks to home visits that bring personalised care straight to your doorstep. At EnableU, we provide in-home physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and assessments throughout Canterbury Bankstown and surrounding areas. Whether you’re receiving NDIS support or aged care funding, we’ll help you get the right services where they matter most—at home.
This guide explains what you can expect before, during, and after your home visit with one of our allied health professionals.
Before Your Appointment
Once your referral is received, EnableU’s team will contact you to:
- Confirm your needs and preferences
- Assign the right therapist for your goals
- Schedule a visit time that suits you
- Explain any documents or preparation needed
We’ll ensure you feel informed and comfortable before we arrive.
What Happens During a Home Visit?
All home visits are personalised to your needs, but most sessions include:
- Initial Assessment: gathering medical history, personal goals, and environmental factors
- Functional Testing: observing how you perform daily tasks like walking, dressing, or cooking
- Therapy Planning: outlining a clear plan of care based on your abilities and aspirations
- Support Strategies: providing advice, demonstrations, or training for you and your carers
Your therapist may also review your equipment, assess your home for hazards, or suggest modifications.
How Long Will It Take?
First visits typically run for 60–90 minutes, with follow-up sessions lasting 45–60 minutes depending on your needs and plan goals.
Will I Receive Documentation?
Yes. We provide:
- Assessment reports for NDIS or aged care providers
- Progress notes and therapy plans
- Assistive technology or home modification recommendations (if required)
We keep everything compliant, clear, and tailored to your support system.
