Occupational Therapy in Victor Harbor
Victor Harbor has one of the oldest populations in South Australia and a very long drive to most allied health. Aged-care and home-modification work dominates here, and the coast road means a visit is a half-day either way, which is exactly why the trips are planned rather than squeezed in.

Victor Harbor is the main town on the Fleurieu south coast, and everything around it — Port Elliot, Middleton, Goolwa, Encounter Bay — is close enough that we cover them on the same trip. We plan the coast as a run rather than a one-off drive, so an appointment here does not sit waiting until there is enough other work nearby to justify coming down.

Common questions
Do you travel to Victor Harbor?
Yes. Victor Harbor is part of our regular service area, and assessments are carried out in the home or community rather than at a clinic.
Do I need a formal referral?
No. Anyone can start a referral: participants, family members, support coordinators, plan managers or GPs. The form asks who is making the referral and takes it from there.
Which funding do you accept in Victor Harbor?
We work with NDIS participants who are self-managed or plan-managed, older adults through My Aged Care, and private clients.
How far around Victor Harbor do you go?
The towns listed on this page are the ones we cover from here. If you are just outside them, send the referral through anyway and we will tell you straight away.
Can any of it be done by telehealth?
Some appointments can, and this is what one looks like. Assessments that depend on seeing the environment, home modifications in particular, need someone on site.
