Functional Capacity Assessments
Can be completed in person or online via video conferencing from anywhere in Australia.
Our Occupational Therapy Functional Capacity Assessments help children and young adults demonstrate their functional abilities in daily life, providing crucial information for
- NDIS access
- NDIS Plan reviews
- NDIS Change of circumstances reviews
- Centrelink Disability Support Pension
- Diagnostic support
These assessments evaluate participation across areas such as self-care, social interaction, learning, play, and community engagement, while considering sensory processing, executive functioning, communication, and environmental factors. We gather information through observation, discussions with the family, school input, and standardised assessment tools.
The assessment report outlines:
- functional support needs
- recommended NDIS-funded supports
- reasonable and necessary adjustments to funding plans
- strategies to improve participation at home, school, and in the community.
Our assessments empower families and participants with clear, evidence-based documentation to guide NDIS planning, goal-setting, and funded supports, ensuring that each child or young adult can thrive in environments that suit their unique needs.
