Convenience

How our Telecare service can support you

Our Telecare service is delivered by the same team of Therapist who provider face to face appointments. Telecare can be suitable if you are in a remote location, have limited access to services or simply want to access service in the convenience and privacy of your home.

The benefits of Northcott Telecare include:

  • You will get the same high quality, individual therapy as you would in person
  • Less funds used on travel, so you can get the most sessions possible
  • If you live far away, you can see a therapist from anywhere – this means less time on a waiting list.

Lots of the face-to-face activities in a therapy session can happen over Telecare as well. Our therapy team can help work out if Telecare is right for you.

NDIS Funding for Telecare

  • Telecare can be funded in the same way as your regular Therapy service
