Recreational Therapy and Support Options - Webinar replay
Recorded 8 March 2023
There are a variety of therapy options for NDIS participants outside of main stream clinical supports. Non clinical supports such as the ones featured in this webinar are growing in demand due to the benefits they are providing to many participants.
In this webinar we chat with our expert providers about recreational therapy options and the benefits it can bring, as well as discuss what qualifications someone should look for when accessing these kind of supports
KEY POINTS:
-Non clinical therapists require qualifications in their relevant fields and you should ask them for their credentials
-Recreational supports work closely with your existing support team so that you can achieve your NDIS goals
-The therapies we have discussed today whilst categorised as non clinical are evidence based and highly researched
