Therapy Assistance & Family Support Services
Welcome to the Therapy Assistance and Support Services (TASS). We provide home and community based therapy assistant services and family support services to adults and children with additional needs on the Sunshine Coast, north Brisbane and surrounding areas.
How It Works
Participant receives a diagnosis and is approved for the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS)
Participant connects with community based allied health providers for intervention services (Occupational Therapist, Speech Pathologist, Psychologist, Physiotherapist, etc)
Participant visits with allied health providers regularly for direct intervention, usually 60-75 minutes per week or fortnight
Each of the participant's providers are given a home therapy program to complete (often the care giver ends up with 3-4 home intervention programs to complete)
Caregivers feel overwhelmed, burnt out, and are unable to complete the home intervention. Leading to poorer outcomes.

Caregivers have trained and experienced home-based TASS Therapy Assistants who assist in implementing home therapy programs, in-turn boosting intervention to up to 6 hours per week
Caregivers share the burden for home therapy and are relieved, participants access more intensive home-based and person-centred intervention, leading to better outcomes.

Therapy Assistance
for kids
Parenting a child with special needs can be challenging, and supporting their intervention needs between specialist sessions can make it even harder. We provide families with trained and experienced multidisciplinary Therapy Assistants to support the implementation of home or community-based therapy programs, using all your own preferred providers.
Therapy Assistance
for adults
We support adults with their own NDIS package to build capacity, to manage day to day living and/or to increase functional capacity. Our therapy assistants can support implementation of Speech Therapy, OT and/or physiotherapy plans.
Our trained and experienced multi disciplinary therapy assistants can also support the implementation of home or community based therapy plans, using all your own preferred providers.
Family Support
We provide families with highly trained and experienced support workers who offer compassionate care tailored to each family's unique needs. Through a person-centred approach, we wrap support around parents, caregivers, and participants, fostering a nurturing and empowering environment for the whole family.
