We are fortunate to have a fantastic team of therapists and support staff across Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, the ACT, South Australia, and Western Australia, who will work with our clients to help them achieve their goals and aspirations.
Our large team of therapists have a wealth of experience and knowledge and a passion for making a difference in the lives of those they work with. They work alongside our dedicated support staff who understand the complexity of the NDIS and are committed to providing an exceptional customer experience for our clients, their families, and our partnering organisations.
Leadership Team
Connect2Care’s leadership team averages over 35 years in the health care sector. They are committed to their staff and clients, and to steering the company to become an industry leader in the delivery of allied health services within the disability sector.
As well as our leadership team, Connect2Care is made up of a variety of different therapists and allied health professionals – and we couldn’t do it without them.
Occupational therapists are an important part of the Connect2Care team. They help clients by providing services that promote independent living and facilitate community integration. They assess functional capacity and assist with activities of daily living, sensory needs, housing, home modifications and assistive technology sourcing and prescription. Our occupational therapists are highly trained professionals that are passionate about helping others. They are committed to helping clients reach their maximum potential and improve their quality of life. Occupational therapists are an invaluable part of the Connect2Care team, and we are proud to have them as a part of our organisation.
At Connect2Care, speech pathologists are an integral part of the team. They assess, diagnose, and treat speech, listening and communication concerns, as well as provide assistance with mealtime difficulties that can include eating, drinking and swallowing. Speech Pathologists also specialise in the assessment and prescription of augmentative and alternative communication systems. Our speech pathologists also provide support and guidance to families and caregivers, helping them to better understand the communication disorder and its impact on the person’s life. In addition, speech pathologists play a key role in advocating for patients’ rights and ensuring that their voices are heard. Through their dedication and expertise, speech pathologists make a vital contribution to the care and support that Connect2Care provides.
The physiotherapists at Connect2Care are an essential part of our team. They help us to assess and treat patients with a wide range of abilities to improve and maintain functional capacity. Their knowledge and skills are invaluable in helping us to provide the best possible care for our patients. This may include strategies such as prescribing assistive technology (seating, wheelchairs, mobility aids etc.,), functional & positioning assessment and manual handling. In addition, physiotherapists play an important role in educating patients about their condition and how to manage it. They also work with other members of the healthcare team to ensure that patients receive the most comprehensive care possible. We are lucky to have such skilled and dedicated physiotherapists on our team at Connect2Care.
Here at Connect2Care, our psychologists are invaluable members of our team. Not only do they provide essential psychological support to our clients, but they also contribute to a wide range of other activities. Psychologists work to support and guide people and their families, striving for positive change. They work with participants and their families to achieve clear strategies and goal-directed interventions based on best practices to track and improve quality of life. They may also work with clients to develop coping strategies and problem-solving skills. Psychologists are hugely valued members of the Connect2Care team and make a valuable contribution to our work.
At Connect2Care, our dietitians are a valuable part of the healthcare team. They work closely with our patients to develop personalised nutrition and mealtime plans that meet their individual needs. They also provide education and support to help our patients make healthy choices and improve their overall health. In addition, our dietitians are always available to answer any questions or concerns that our patients may have. We are proud to have such a talented and dedicated team of dietitians at Connect2Care, and we are confident that they will continue to be valuable parts of our organisation.
Our exercise physiologists are valuable members of our team. They work with our clients to assess their physical fitness, identify barriers to exercise, and develop personalised exercise programs including hydrotherapy. They also provide support and motivation to help clients stick with their exercise goals. In addition, exercise physiologists can provide valuable insights into the overall health of our clients. As a result, exercise physiologists play a vital role in promoting the health and well-being of our clients, and we can’t be more grateful for their help!
Connect2Care values our social workers as members of our team. Social workers support people to make changes in their lives to improve their personal and social well-being. This happens by identifying issues that require change and connecting people with support such as secure housing or family therapy. Social workers have knowledge of human behaviour and development, life cycle stages, families and social networks, disability and health, including mental health. We believe that social workers are essential to creating a caring and just society, and we are proud to have them as members of our team.
Connect2Care is a leading provider of therapeutic services focused on meeting the needs of children and adults living with disability in our community. As a registered National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) provider, we offer Occupational Therapy, Speech Pathology, Exercise Physiology, Physiotherapy, Psychology, and Dietetics.
