Common questions

How long does an FCA take?

Usually a single visit of a couple of hours, sometimes split across two if fatigue is a factor. The written report follows separately.

Who can request one?

Participants, family, support coordinators, plan managers or GPs. No formal referral document is needed to start.

Do you travel to the Adelaide Hills?

Yes. Adelaide Hills is part of our regular service area and assessments are carried out in the home or community rather than at a clinic.

How far around Adelaide Hills do you cover?

From here we also see people in Stirling, Aldgate, Hahndorf, Woodside, Lobethal and Gumeracha. If you are just outside those, send the referral through anyway and we will tell you straight away.

Which funding does this suit?

NDIS participants who are self-managed or plan-managed, older adults through My Aged Care, and private clients.
