Occupational therapy · Limestone Coast, South Australia
Mobile occupational therapy for older Australians and people with disability — at your kitchen table, in your bathroom, out in your community. In person across the Limestone Coast, and by telehealth.
Why home
That's why we come to you — specialist occupational therapy, delivered where life actually happens.
Who we support
For older Australians with a Support at Home classification. We work within your funding to keep you safe, mobile and independent — from equipment and home modifications to reablement-focused capacity building.
We liaise directly with your Support at Home provider and care manager, so nothing falls through the cracks.
Functional capacity assessments, assistive technology and home modifications for NDIS participants who self-manage or use a plan manager. Reports written to NDIS evidence standards and aligned to your plan goals.
We invoice you or your plan manager directly — clear quotes, no surprises.
No referral or funding approval needed. Book directly for home and falls assessments, equipment advice, and therapy programs — for yourself or someone you're worried about.
Transparent fees, quoted in writing before we begin.
What we do
Every service starts the same way: with you, in your home, looking at real life. Then we build the plan — assessment, equipment, modification or therapy — around your goals and your funding.
Start a referralA complete picture of how you live — what you do, what you want to do, and what's getting in the way. Comprehensive FCA reports for NDIS plan reviews, Support at Home and other funding applications.
From grab rails and ramps to full bathroom redesigns. We assess, specify and work alongside builders and funding bodies to get modifications right the first time — measure-ups, drawings and specifications, builder liaison, funding justification.
The right equipment, properly prescribed. From daily living aids to complex seating, power mobility and custom scripting — trialled with you, justified to funders, and fitted to your life.
Prevention first. Seating and positioning assessments, pressure-care equipment, and skin-protection programs designed around your routine — working with your nursing and medical team.
A room-by-room look at your falls risk — balance, vision, footwear, hazards, medication-review prompts — with practical changes that people actually keep using.
The foundation service: a thorough audit of safety, access and function across your whole home, leaving you with clear, prioritised recommendations — not a report that gathers dust.
Therapy that builds you up: strength, balance, routines and skills for daily life, community access, and the goals that matter to you — reviewed and progressed as you do.

A thorough assessment, clear goals, and honest advice about what your funding can cover before any work begins.
Reports, equipment and modifications arranged and followed up. We stay involved until it's working in real life.

How telehealth worksAbout
Coastwise is Matt's practice — a clinician-owned occupational therapy service built for the Limestone Coast. When you call, you speak with Matt. When we visit, it's Matt at your door. And the report that lands with your funder is written by the same person who sat at your kitchen table.
Being mobile means we see the real picture — the step at the back door, the chair that's too low, the routine that matters to you. Face to face across the region, or by telehealth when that suits better. That's where good occupational therapy starts.
