Senior Occupational Therapist

Here at Living to the Max we love nothing more than providing tailored Occupational Therapy services to DVA, Aged Care, RTW, and NDIS participants. We deliver services to our participants in their choice of location, whether this be community, clinic, or telehealth.

Our recent partnership with Ability Action Australia (MedHealth) has allowed us to provide additional services to our participants, whilst our clinicians are now receiving additional employee benefits and uncapped career opportunity via the wider MedHealth group of companies!

We have an exciting opportunity for an experienced Occupational Therapist to join our small, but mighty team! We can tailor a caseload that you are passionate about… do you want to work with children, adolescents or adults, or a mix of all? Do you want to specialise in a particular field (RTW, NDIS, Aged Care), or work across many areas? We love nothing more than working with our participants to achieve their short- and long-term goals.

Whilst our Living to the Max team may be small, we are experts in our field and strive to provide future clinicians with the best possible education.

"Being provided the opportunity to begin my career working with DVA clients in the community with Living to the Max was something I will be forever grateful for, and I would encourage any new graduate to consider. It is such an amazing learning experience and steppingstone to working with clients under other areas of funding, such as the NDIS.

Without beginning my career working with DVA clients, I believe I would not have felt as comfortable with my transition to working in the NDIS space. It is a very rewarding area to work in and the rapport built with some of the war veterans is truly heart-warming." Alison Barrow, Occupational Therapist (commenced in January 2021 in DVA program, now working with NDIS clients)
