Disability Supports for Older Australians (DSOA)

Occupational Therapy supports everyone through every age and stage of life.


At helpz, we are privileged to provide Occupational Therapy supports to older Australians living with a disability under the Disability Supports for Older Australians (DSOA) funding scheme. This ensures that no matter the age, we can continue to support our clients to live life with meaning and dignity.


For many of our DSOA clients this means ensuring we support safe mobility and transfers, safe eating and drinking, modifications or adaptation for continued independence or to make recommendations for the supports needed to engage in meaningful activity and maintenance of connection to family, friends and community.


Below are some examples of some disability supports some of our older clients might need.


Our clients often require specialised assistive technology to support their daily function. Have a look at some of the equipment we have assisted our clients to receive.


Visit the Occupational Therapy website to find out more about how Occupational Therapy supports older Australians.
