🚨 Important Update for Our Community

The NDIS Evidence Advisory Committee (EAC) is currently reviewing Exercise Physiology (EP) as a funded NDIS support.

This means the Australian Government Department of Health, Disability and Aged Care is studying Exercise Physiology and other supports to understand:

✅ Who they help
✅ How much they help
✅ Whether they are safe

They also want to confirm:
✅ Who uses or might use these supports
✅ How and why people use them
✅ What other supports people use instead

At Recovery Station, we see every day how valuable Exercise Physiology is in helping people improve mobility, strength, and confidence. This builds independence and supports participation in everyday life.

Your input can help ensure that this real-world impact is recognised. The department wants to hear from participants, families, support people, clinicians, and providers.

📣 Have your say here: https://bit.ly/3L1n1TD

A friend, family member, or support person can help you complete the survey if needed.

Let’s make sure the importance of Exercise Physiology is heard loud and clear. 💥

Celebrating Our OTs This OT Week and Every Week 🎉

We’re proud to work alongside an extraordinary team of Occupational Therapists who make a real difference, not just in the work they do, but in how they do it.

This OT Week, we're celebrating their creativity, compassion and deep commitment to helping people live with dignity, independence and purpose.

Whether they’re supporting someone to adapt to new equipment, re-engage with the activities they love, or just living their everyday in the best way possible, our OTs are there every step of the way.

Here’s what OT Week means to our OT Head of Discipline, Michelle:

💬 “It’s a chance to stop and celebrate the incredible team we have. Our OTs bring energy, innovation, and heart to their work and to each other. I’m so proud to lead this team.”

To every OT at Recovery Station, thank you for the difference you make in people’s lives and in our team. 💪

We appreciate you. And we’re cheering you on. 🥳

💛 National Carers Week: Supporting Those Who Care

You are one. Know one. Or will be one.

Carers are everywhere.

They are the ones quietly showing up, every day, for someone they love.

This week, we honour the 3 million Australians caring for a family member or friend. It’s deeply rewarding, but it can also be exhausting, and support makes a world of difference.

Here are five simple ways to support a carer today:

✅ Check In – Listen and validate their feelings without judgement

✅ Offer a Break – Help with errands, meals, or chores

✅ Acknowledge & Appreciate – A thank you or kind note goes a long way

✅ Initiate Support – Ask how you can help, and mean it

✅ Encourage Self Care – A walk, a laugh, a quiet moment matters

Every small act counts. Let’s lift up those who give so much of themselves to others.

✅ Big on flavour
✅ Packed with veg
✅ Gentle on your wallet

Because eating well shouldn’t mean giving up the meals you enjoy.

💛 October is Mental Health Month

This year’s theme (from Mental Health Australia) is Connect with your Community. It's a beautiful reminder that being part of something bigger than ourselves is good for our health, mindset and overall wellbeing.

For our team, connection is at the heart of what we do - with our clients, our colleagues, and our wider community.

To bring this to life, our team will be taking part in The Mental Health Games through our Feel Good Factor initiative, a series of activities focused on:

✅ Movement
✅ Creativity
✅ Wellness through good nutrition
✅ Giving back to others

It’s a fun and meaningful way for our team to stay connected, support one another, and celebrate the positive impact the community has on mental health.

Take some time to think about how you can connect with your community, even if it's just to chat with a neighbour. 🫶

✨ Our Annual Training Day is always a highlight on the calendar. It’s a chance for our team to come together... stepping out of our everyday work to learn, share, connect, and, of course, enjoy some great food and plenty of laughs.

And the best part? We get to walk away feeling energised, connected, and ready to keep making a difference in the lives of the people we support.

👀 Do you want to be part of a team like this? We’re always on the lookout for passionate clinicians who want to advance their careers and make a meaningful impact. 💙💚

Our team supports people living with dementia in staying independent, connected, and safe, while also empowering their families and caregivers.

💛 R U OK? Day is a powerful reminder that checking in with the people around us matters, not just today, but every day.

At Recovery Station, our clinicians connect with their clients out in the community, so we truly value the moments when we come back together.

Our monthly Feel Good Factor events give us that chance to reconnect, share a laugh, and look out for one another.

Each September, our R U OK? Morning Tea is a highlight. It's time to pause, catch up, and have the kind of conversations that really matter.

Today, we encourage you to do the same. Take a moment to ask someone, R U OK? ...It could make all the difference.

Earlier this year, we shared that Rachael, a proud Wonnarua woman and one of our inspiring clients, was preparing for her very first marathon.

Despite living with rheumatoid arthritis, musculoskeletal injuries, fatigue and vision impairment, she discovered running in 2021 and last weekend, she achieved something extraordinary...

Rachael completed the Sydney Marathon, running every step of the 42.2km course (minus a quick drink stop or two!) with determination, grit and her trademark sense of humour. 💪🤩

She shared with us:

“It was a bloody long way to run, but I couldn’t have done it without my (Recovery Station) team. I thought about that often during the nearly 4 hours of just footsteps and cheers. It’s no joke. But I don’t think it will be my one and only!”

Rachael also described the race as “the time of my life,” proving that running your own race, staying consistent, and choosing to finish strong is just as powerful as chasing a fast time.

We’re so proud of you, Rachael. Your strength and determination remind us all what’s possible with the right support, resilience and belief in yourself. ❤️💛🖤
