Some paw-sitive memories you never forget, like the time Frankie raised a paw to answer a question before anyone else in group could! ๐Ÿพ

A sweet memory from our 6-week memory group, that wrapped up a couple weeks ago, where this good girl showed up for support and was one of our star students! โญ๏ธ

Some memories just stick with you (and some paws do too). Thanks for being part of the group, Frankie ๐Ÿถ ๐Ÿ’•

Hands-on learning in action! ๐Ÿ™Œ

Our OT team took part in an Active Medical in-service, diving deep into equipment training and trialling hoists firsthand.

Understanding how this equipment works helps us ensure safer transfers, better clinical recommendations, and improved outcomes for our clients!!

When our clinicians know the equipment inside and out, our clients get the best possible care.

This Brain Injury Awareness Week, we want to share something powerful.

One of our clients created this incredible four-mask series with support during his OT sessions. Mind After Impact. a visual journey through what it can really feel like to live with a brain injury.

๐Ÿ”ด Fractured Signals: the physical reality of an injured body. Noise, light, and movement can feel like too much, and thereโ€™s a disconnect between what the brain wants and what the body can do.

๐ŸŸก Anchored Doubt: the heavy pull of worry and self-doubt, and the quiet strength it takes to keep holding on anyway.

๐ŸŸข Fractured Probability: the fear and uncertainty when plans stop working and things feel random and unfair.

๐Ÿ”ต Clouded Mechanisms: brain fog and cognitive fatigue, when thinking itself becomes hard work.

Each mask represents the face the world sees: calm, โ€œfine,โ€ unchanged, while so much can be happening underneath.

As the artist put it: โ€œBeing kind. Being patient. Being understanding. It can make a big difference.โ€

You never know what battle someone might be fighting behind the mask. ๐Ÿ’™

Huge thanks to our client and artist for so generously sharing his story and talent with us. Find more of his work: Ahensler Art

๐Ÿƒ One deck of cards. Four pre-driving skills ๐Ÿš˜

Driving requires much more than physical ability. Neuro OTs assess and develop a range of cognitive skills that support safe driving and community independence.

In this video, weโ€™re targeting:
๐Ÿš— Visual scanning
๐Ÿš— Processing speed
๐Ÿš— Divided attention
๐Ÿš— Reaction time & impulse control

Simple activities can provide valuable insight into real-world function, helping us identify strengths, challenges, and areas for intervention.

On Friday, our OTs swapped their home visits, sessions, and reports for clues, puzzles and a race against the clock!! ๐Ÿ‘ป๐Ÿ”

There were plenty of puzzles to solve, a few screams along the way, lots of laughter, and thankfully, a successful escape! As it turns out, the same skills we use every day (communication, teamwork, problem-solving and staying calm under pressure) come in pretty handy when youโ€™re trying to escape a haunted room!!

Weโ€™re lucky to have such an incredible team and we love opportunities like these to connect outside of work ๐Ÿ’™

Our team has had a great couple of days in Christchurch NZ attending the ASSBI - Australasian Society for the Study of Brain Impairment Conference for 2026!

Lots of valuable knowledge was gained and connections strengthened with our colleagues working in brain injury rehabilitation. ๐Ÿ’ช

Collaboration and shared learning is how we move forward as better clinicians and enables better service provision to our client cohort.

Thanks to our valued colleagues at and for the discussions, inspiration and good times. ๐Ÿง

Our 6-week group memory program wrapped up yesterday. Thank you to all our participants! ๐ŸŽ‰

This program focused on supporting people living with neurological conditions to better understand their memory and develop practical strategies to use in everyday life.

Across the 6 weeks, participants worked on building awareness, learning techniques to support memory and attention, and applying these strategies at home and in the community.

Itโ€™s always great to see the progress, confidence, and shared learning that comes from group-based rehabilitation. โญ๏ธ
