The right equipment, for real life
One of my key clinical interests is assistive equipment and supporting children with complex physical and developmental needs to access the equipment and supports that help them participate more fully in everyday life. I have experience with a range of equipment, including:
Gait trainers
Posterior walkers
Standing frames
Manual and power wheelchairs
Complex seating systems
Supportive indoor seating
Ankle-foot orthoses (AFOs)
Postural support garments
I also consider when orthoses, such as ankle-foot orthoses (AFOs), or postural support garments, such as Second Skin suits, may be beneficial, working collaboratively with the relevant professionals to ensure recommendations are tailored to each child.
For me, equipment prescription is about much more than choosing a product. It's about understanding the child, their goals, their daily environments, and what matters most to their family. I believe every family deserves to explore the most appropriate options for their child, regardless of price, and I'm passionate about helping families navigate the process to find solutions that support comfort, independence, participation, and quality of life.
Navigating the NDIS, together
I understand that navigating equipment options and the NDIS can feel overwhelming for families. I work alongside families throughout this process.
Clinical assessments
Reports and supporting documentation for NDIS funding requests
Assistive technology (AT) applications
Equipment trials
Equipment reviews
I aim to make the process as clear and manageable as possible while advocating for equipment and supports that genuinely meet each child's needs.
