Allied Health Assistants
AHA’s Support our Practitioners by:
Implementing therapy sessions prescribed by a qualified practitioner
Completing progress notes/documentation
Developing client resources
Liaising with other professionals e.g. doctors, teachers, other therapists, work colleagues
Work independently and alongside the leading Practitioner
This can be a very pragmatic way of stretching NDIS funding, and also by benefiting from more therapy time.
Rebound’s Process for AHA’s
Referrals cannot be made directly for an Allied Health Assistant, as the Participant & AHA must be managed by a Leading Practitioner. It is the Leading Practitioner that will conduct the assessment, develop the treatment plan, and then teach the Allied Health Assistant how to implement the program.
The Practitioner will establish and monitor the progression of the treatment program, and make any adjustments as clinically necessary.
The Practitioner will also be the one responsible for the reporting and recommendations for future plans and therapy.
