One of the secrets to enjoying your work...
..is having confidence in your skills ✨

And this is exactly why we invest deeply in our team at Community Therapy💡

Recently our Occupational Therapists got hands-on in a practical, interactive home mods workshop....
..led by our Learning & Development Manager!

Measuring and problem-solving for home modifications — all built around adult learning principles!

💬 The feedback?

“Engaging. Practical. Confidence-building.”

Exactly what training should feel like.

When skills go up → job satisfaction skyrockets 🚀

Because when our team is happy → our clients are well supported!

👉 Here’s the truth: when you feel confident in your skills, work doesn’t just get easier — it gets more meaningful 🥰

Placement is about more than just ticking off hours, it’s about finding out how different roles fit together 👩‍⚕️📚

During her time with us, OT student Mandy got to see how OTs, EPs, Dietitians and Speechies each bring something different to the table.

It gave her a clearer picture of multi-disciplinary practice...in practice!!

That kind of teamwork makes learning richer for students and, most importantly, leads to better outcomes for the people we support!

Partnering with schools to help kids thrive 📚 ✨

Last week our paediatric team joined a local Public School’s parent information night for incoming 2026 kindergarten families.

We’ve partnered with the school since launching our paeds department, delivering speech and language screening assessments to every kindergarten student, and volunteering time to chat with parents about how we can support their child’s communication journey.

It’s always a joy to connect with families in these early stages and to work alongside schools who value early intervention.

Together we can help children thrive as they take their first steps into school life 🌱

Communication is everything 💬 🗣️

For some of our clients, these simple laminated cards can be life changing

They help people show pain levels, ask for help, or even just say “yes” and “no”

Huge shoutout to our Admin (Hayley, Abbey & Maggie 🙌) who printed and laminated stacks of these low-tech AAC resources for our Speech Pathology team

They might look like just bits of paper, but in the right moment, they can mean less frustration, less stress, and more connection with loved ones 💙

Flexibility that works for everyone 📅

Schedules and work days vary at CT!

Some have little ones at home...
..others have sporting or family commitments
..and plenty just need different hours to make life fit together

That flexibility means our clinicians can bring their best selves to work

And clients receive care from a team that feels supported both inside and outside the job!

Recently we had 5 Emilys at our Mayfield office! 💁‍♀️💁‍♀️💁‍♀️💁‍♀️💁‍♀️

That’s almost the full set...

CT actually has 6 Emilys in total!

If the last one was in this photo, we may have opened a portal or shifted the space-time continuum 🔮

Emily might just be the unofficial name of an allied health professional right now...

And we’re lucky to have some of the best on our team! 💙
..and look
..if you're interested in a role at CT
..but you're name is not Emily
..you can still apply 😅
..and if you're name is Emily
..we promise there is no special treatment in the recruitment process 😅

Okay...
..this is likely to be a controversial take

Physio Adi ranks his top 5 tennis players of all time...

Who did he leave out? 👀 🎾

What do you think...

Fair call or controversial take? 🌶️

R U OK?

A gentle check can light the way,
A caring word can change a day.
It only takes a moment’s pause,
To show you’re here, to share the cause.

We all face storms, both big and small,
And sometimes hide them, one and all.
But when we ask, and when we stay,
It helps the clouds to drift away.

A listening ear, a steady hand,
Can help a friend to safely land.
No need to overthink the way,
Just ask, “Hey mate, are you ok?”

No equipment? No worries! 💪🌟

You can do a lot for falls prevention, and even some strengthening exercises with simple household items

For falls prevention, the evidence supports balance exercises being completed twice weekly...
..and this can include some dynamic stepping work too!

And if you are overcoming an injury or surgery, light strengthening exercises in the first couple of weeks with simple items can be more than appropriate
..we do like to make strengthening exercises more challenging over time of course!!

Physiotherapist Jess demos some clever swaps you can do with things already lying around the house!

Meet the newest recruits to our paediatric OT team… 🎾 👀 🤝

They might look like silly little characters, but there’s a lot going on behind the googly eyes!

Activities like this get kids practising fine motor skills and hand strength without it feeling like 'work'

All that play builds the foundation for things like writing at school, getting dressed on their own, and feeling confident with cutlery at mealtimes.

Shoutout Ethan for the exquisite art skills!

🥳💫🎉 Happy world Physio Day!! 🎉💫🥳

World Physio Day celebrates Physiotherapists and the difference they make in people’s lives.

This year’s theme is healthy ageing with a focus on preventing falls and frailty.

and WE LOVE THAT THEME!!!!

Huge appreciation to our Physio crew and the wider CT team for helping our community move more, fall less and live well every day.

You’re all legends!

Final note: we couldn’t wrangle every single team member into this photo…a few had to dash to appointments the second the meeting wrapped! Booked and busy helping people! 💙
