WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING
I found the workshop very informative. I thought it was great to see how the goals were established and really stepping back from those giant goals to see what the first step is (eg. staying living in house - need to cook a meal weekly). I think its a great way to review what we can do and consider the funding limitations on goals. They often take a lot of time to cover due to many facets involved.
The inclusion of real-life examples and step-by-step strategies made the workshop highly valuable as a new grad. This workshop is a must-attend for OTs looking to improve their skills in NDIS service delivery.
