Immediate Needs Assessment (INA)
An INA is a thorough, holistic and clinically reasoned face-to-face assessment with an individual who has sustained an injury or who is suffering from a medical condition which impacts their ability to complete activities they were able to do prior to the injury or illness.
Telephone Diagnostic Assessment (TDA)
This is a cost-effective assessment that provides an overview of the injuries sustained or illness manifestation detailing medical and treatment intervention, ongoing and unmet rehabilitation needs, the individual’s occupations, and social circumstances.
Post-concussion Screening Assessment
This is a remote assessment for individuals with ongoing, often subtle, symptoms of concussion. The assessment is undertaken by a specialist neurological Occupational Therapist using evidence based screening tools to provide guidance on timely and effective intervention to improve an individual’s functional performance in everyday life.
Occupational Therapy Functional Assessment
This is a face-to-face assessment with the individual, in which all relevant areas of functional performance are assessed e.g. personal and domestic activities of daily living, occupational performance (leisure and social interests) etc.
Cognitive/Fatigue Assessment
This assessment provides objective evidence of cognitive capacity through psychometric tests and self-report questionnaires. These address aspects such as memory, verbal comprehension and fluency, processing speed and logical thinking as well as impact of fatigue and attention/concentration.
Functional Capacity Evaluation
This comprehensive and detailed assessment is applied to determine an individual’s current physical ability to perform work duties, to help them return to a work role, or alternatively, gain new employment.
