Emotional regulation is the ability to recognise, manage, and recover from emotional responses.
It is not something you’re born “good” or “bad” at, but it’s a learned skill.

Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) focuses on:
• Identifying triggers
• Teaching coping and communication strategies
• Building routines that reduce emotional overload
• Supporting carers with consistent responses

PBS does not use punishment or restrictive approaches.
It’s about building skills that support long-term wellbeing.

💙 Speak to our PBS practitioners today — call 1300 511 887 or visit 🌐 livingstrengthcare.com.au to learn how we can support you.

In Occupational Therapy, there’s an important difference between:
“Can do”: physically possible
“Should do”: safe, sustainable, and energy-efficient

For example, someone may be able to bend to the floor, but doing so repeatedly may increase fall risk or pain.
OTs assess task safety, body mechanics, and fatigue levels to determine better ways to complete tasks, not just whether they’re possible.

👉 Independence should not come at the cost of injury or burnout.
📍 Get practical strategies for safer daily routines.

Your home should support your independence. 🏡

Our OT team assesses safety risks and recommends practical home modifications to reduce falls, improve access, and support daily living.

Many people live with small daily challenges without ever mentioning them, often thinking they just have to “get on with it.”

But support isn’t about labels or judgement.
It’s about understanding what’s getting in the way and finding practical strategies that truly help. 🌱

We’re here to listen, support, and work alongside you.

Research and clinical practice show that small, regular practice leads to better long-term outcomes than infrequent intense effort.

Why?
• It reduces fatigue and flare-ups
• It supports habit formation
• It allows the nervous system time to adapt
• It lowers the risk of injury or emotional overwhelm

OT and PBS programs are designed around sustainable routines, not pushing through discomfort.
Progress is built through repetition, not exhaustion.

Sometimes it’s not the big things we notice first it’s the little parts of life we slowly step away from. 🌿

If daily activities have started to feel harder, you’re not alone and you don’t have to push through it by yourself.
Our Occupational Therapists support you with practical, personalised strategies to help everyday life feel more manageable again.

💙 Support that meets you where you are.

Many falls happen at home due to environmental factors, including:
• Loose rugs or mats
• Poor lighting, especially at night
• Slippery bathroom surfaces
• Cluttered walkways
• Storage that requires reaching or bending

Occupational Therapists conduct home assessments to identify these risks and recommend practical changes such as grab rails, improved lighting, non-slip surfaces, or layout adjustments.

👉 Most modifications are simple and do not change how your home feels.

Daily tasks should support independence, not limit it. 💚

Our Occupational Therapists help adults build practical skills for dressing, cooking, personal care, and mobility through personalised, real-life support.

Routines reduce stress by lowering the brain’s decision-making load.
When the brain knows what to expect, it uses less energy to stay regulated.

Consistent routines can:
• Reduce anxiety and emotional overwhelm
• Improve sleep and daily organisation
• Support emotional regulation
• Increase participation in daily tasks

PBS practitioners help build flexible routines that support emotional wellbeing without being rigid or restrictive.

Functional therapy focuses on real-life tasks, not abstract exercises.

In OT, this includes activities such as:
• Dressing and grooming
• Cooking and meal preparation
• Community access
• Getting in and out of a car
• Managing daily routines

The goal is to improve participation and independence in everyday life, not just physical ability in isolation.
