Home Safety Assessments

If you are returning home from the hospital or have recently had changes to how you are managing living independently at home, a home safety assessment can help. This assessment can help to identify the areas that are presenting challenges and make recommendations to improve home safety, functionality and independence.

This may include recommending equipment, home modifications or providing education regarding different ways of performing a task.

Sensory Profiles

Difficulties with Sensory Integration can occur when messages from one or several sensory systems are not being processed effectively, resulting in a person being over or under-sensitive to particular sensations.

Sensory profile assessments evaluate an individual's sensory processing patterns in the context of everyday life, providing a unique way to determine how sensory processing may be contributing to or interfering with participation in everyday tasks.

Sensory Profiles

School / PreSchool Based Assessments

Difficulties with school-based learning as well as preparation for school require support from an early age to establish the necessary building blocks for future success.

School / Preschool assessments evaluate a child's fine motor, gross motor, cognitive, and motor skills in order to support them with learning in the classroom environment and engagement in schooling.

Life Skill Assessments

Difficulties with activities of daily living (ADLs) and instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs) are very common among individuals of all ages.

Life skill assessments assess areas such as toileting, dressing, hygiene/grooming, feeding, sleep, housework, money management, shopping, meal preparation, personal safety, travelling, and organisational tasks, helping to identify which areas require further support through therapy.

Client Feedback

  • Peter has been working with my son who has Cerebral Palsy for the last few years. During this time, he has helped my son in many ways. Having Peter work with my son in his home means the skills he is learning and developing can be replicated each day.

    My son looks forward to his weekly OT sessions with Peter and doesn't see them as 'therapy' but rather a fun part to his weekly routine.

  • Peter’s service for our son with autism has been excellent. He always suggests recommendations for services, typical developmental milestones, promotes engagement in age appropriate activities and provides appropriate community resources that support participation.

    We wanted to share this information and let others know that Peter does a fabulous job with our son.  We are forever grateful to have met him in our Autism journey and would highly recommend his professionalism, advice and skills.

  • We can't thank Peter enough for everything he has done for our son. Our son’s trust and confidence has grown in so many aspects.

    It's comforting to know our son has someone special like Peter to confide in.
