The majority of intervention services at Step Ahead Occupational Therapy Services are clinic based, however home visits and attendance at schools can be provided on request to support school staff and help transition to new classes.

Contact with school staff and other professionals, and families in remote and rural areas will be maintained as required through email, telephone and Zoom tele-chat conversations.

We are experienced working within the NDIS framework for self-managed & plan-managed clients, since it's inception in Western Australia.
