To celebrate International Women's Day, we were lucky to have Perri from ochre naturopathy come in and present on "The Stress Response and Nutritional Strategies for Resilience" to our Team.

We really appreciated the opportunity to listen to Perri and discuss practical strategies for supporting the nervous system and building resilience. Thank you Perri! ✨

🌟 What is SIL in the NDIS? 🌟
Supported Independent Living (SIL) provides 24/7 support in a shared or individual home to help you build skills, stay safe, and live as independently as possible.
🌟 How OTs support SIL:
🏡 Assess daily living skills & support needs
📝 Provide functional reports for SIL funding
🤝 Recommend the right support ratio + model
🔧 Suggest assistive tech & home modifications
📘 Work with your provider to ensure your supports match your goals

If you're thinking about SIL and want to understand what supports could help you live more independently, an OT assessment is a great place to start!

✨ We would like to extend a warm welcome to our New Graduate Occupational Therapist Gemma! ✨

Gemma will be working in the Support at Home and NDIS Space within Riverina OT.

Gemma graduated from CSU Albury completing a Bachelor of Occupational Therapy. In her placements Gemma gained a special interest in supporting community members living to the fullest in their homes, from enhancing their skills providing home modifications, to prescribing equipment!

Gemma enjoys the broad scope that OT has to offer and that as an OT, she is able to think outside of the box and come up with a solution that is tailored to the individual and their goals.

Outside of work, Gemma enjoys playing tennis with her boyfriend and friends, reading on her kindle and taking care of her two cheeky ginger cats. 🐈
