Assessment and Intervention for
Meal Preparation Independence
Gaining independence with meal preparation is an important task of daily living for many participants. OTâs often receive requests for assistive technology to build capacity and increase independence in the kitchen, but just how exactly can a Thermomix do this? This interactive workshop session will review the clinical considerations when prescribing a Thermomix including how it can increase independence in meal preparation, preparation of evidence of clinical reasoning and provision of reporting to the NDIS. The session will include a case study and ânuggets of goldâ provided by the NDIS Technical Advisory Team.

Very helpful and informative presentation on how to justify a Thermomix for a participant on the NDIS. I found the clinical reasoning very helpful and also linking back to the COPM and participant goals. The notes on why a Thermomix may be rejected were also very helpful
