Refine your assessment skills for NDIS participants with psychosocial disabilities in our comprehensive workshop
In this workshop, we take a closer look at OT functional assessment processes, and standardised and non-standardised assessment tools, for NDIS participants with psychosocial disability due to mental health conditions. We’ll unpack the OT assessment toolbox and explore matching assessments to client need. AND we’ll discuss how to incorporate assessment results into your functional assessment reports, in a manner that is compatible with NDIS concepts, principles and expectations.

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING
The workshop was highly insightful and provided a good overview of how to conduct FCA specifically tailored to individuals with psychosocial disabilities. This workshop is essential for OTs working within the NDIS space and will help OTs advocate effectively for their clients via reports.
I gained a lot from this workshop, thank you. Now I have recommendations on NDIS preferred OT assessments for psychosocial disability I will familarise myself with them and utilise them with my clients.
