Therapeutic Services

Access therapeutic support to help you maintain your wellbeing, manage changes in function and continue living as independently as possible.

Therapeutic Support to Help You Live Well

Feeling comfortable, staying active and continuing to enjoy the things that matter to you can all play an important part in living well at home.

Therapeutic Services for Independent Living are part of the Independence category under Support at Home. Depending on your assessed needs, you may be able to access therapies such as remedial massage, osteopathy, chiropractic care, acupuncture, art therapy and diversional therapy.

At HCA Home Care, we can help coordinate approved therapeutic services around your individual needs, goals and care plan.

What’s included with Therapeutic Services?

Therapeutic Services for Independent Living can include a range of evidence-based supports designed to maintain your physical, emotional and social wellbeing.

Remedial Massage

Accredited remedial massage may be provided when it forms part of a prescribed treatment plan to address functional decline and support movement or comfort.

Osteopathy & Chiropractic Care

Approved osteopathy and chiropractic services can support movement, mobility and physical function where these services relate to your assessed needs.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture may be used as part of an approved therapeutic approach to support concerns such as pain and physical wellbeing.

Art & Diversional Therapy

Art and diversional therapy can provide meaningful activities that support participation, social connection and emotional wellbeing.

How Can I Access Therapeutic Services?

Therapeutic Services for Independent Living may be available through Support at Home or the Commonwealth Home Support Programme, depending on your assessment and approved services.

Step 1

Understand Your Needs

An aged care assessment considers your day-to-day needs, goals and the support that could help you continue living independently. 

Step 2

Review Your Approved Services

If therapeutic services are included in your approved support, we’ll help you understand what you can access and how it fits within your care plan. 

Step 3

Coordinate Your Support

Your HCA Home Care Customer Care Manager can help arrange suitable approved therapeutic services around your routine and preferences. 

Step 4

Review Your Care

As your needs or goals change, we can work with you to review your services and help coordinate what comes next. 

Who Might Benefit from Therapeutic Services?

Therapeutic support may be useful when changes in your physical, emotional or social wellbeing begin affecting how you feel or what you’re able to do each day.

Appropriate therapeutic services may support comfort, movement and function when age-related changes are making everyday activities more difficult.

Therapeutic support can help you maintain existing abilities and continue doing everyday activities as independently as possible.

Art and diversional therapy can support participation, creativity, social connection and emotional wellbeing.

If your aged care assessment identifies therapeutic support as appropriate, approved services can form part of your wider care plan.
