Qualified & Experienced Occupational Therapists in Dandenong
At a2z Health Group, we work closely alongside children, adolescents and adults who are either recovering from a temporary or long-term injury, or living with disability. Our dedicated occupational therapists are highly committed to supporting our patients on their journey to engaging and participating in everyday life, particularly in the areas of self-care, productivity and leisure.
When you seek treatment from our occupational therapists (located in Dandenong), we prescribe a series of specific activities or “occupations” as a means of rehabilitation and promotion of physical and mental well-being. Our services may also involve supporting you with strategies, assistive technology/equipment or modification of the environment to better enable you.
The main goal behind this is to enable and empower people of all abilities to participate in the activities of everyday life, whatever that may be for you. At a2z Health Group, our entire team believes in a holistic and person-centred focus when it comes to assisting you and your loved ones in developing independence and overall well-being.

What to Expect?
Initial Meeting
An informal meeting to get to know you as a person, what is important to you, and what is getting in the way of what you want, need, or are expected to do.
Assessment
Depending on the need, we may conduct a formal assessment to better understand your current abilities and your environment to determine which course of intervention will best suit you. Assessment includes the use of standardised procedures, interviews, observations in a variety of settings and consultation with significant people in your life.
Planning
With the information gathered, we work with you to come up with a plan which includes short and long-term aims of treatment which considers your unique strengths and environmental factors.
Intervention
Intervention focuses on strategies which are aimed to enable and facilitate your ability to perform the chosen tasks. We can also work on adapting the settings in which you live, work, socialize or play in.
Collaboration
We recognise the importance of teamwork and communication. Collaboration and coordination with other professionals, families, caregivers and volunteers are important in the realisation of your journey!
