The Support at Home price caps that were due to start on 1 July 2026 have been deferred (with no new date confirmed at this time.)

If that sentence landed somewhere between frustration and a laugh, that makes sense, and we understand.

A lot of people in aged care have spent months preparing for that date. And now it has been pushed, again, with more uncertainty to absorb and more questions to field from clients who are already trying to make sense of a system that has been in transition since November.

We are not going to pretend that it is not exhausting. It is.

What we can say is that the clinical work we do for your clients has not changed and will not change based on what is happening with pricing frameworks.

When we assess someone for home modifications, falls prevention, or assistive technology under Support at Home, we are focused on what will actually keep that person safe and independent at home, within the funding that is available to them.

That is the job, regardless of what the policy environment is doing around it.

If you have a client who needs OT input and you want to work with a provider who has seen enough reform cycles to stay steady through this one, we are here.

Experience matters more than ever in the current NDIS environment, where reports need to be defensible, recommendations need to link clearly to function and risk, and the margin for rework is essentially zero.

When you refer to Momentum OT, you're not getting a junior clinician finding their feet.

You're getting someone who has seen complex cases, knows how to navigate the funding environment, and will produce work that holds up.

Dust diseases occupy a very specific corner of occupational therapy. It's one we know well.

Workers who have spent years in industries like mining, construction, or manufacturing, and who are now living with conditions like silicosis, asbestosis, or coal workers' pneumoconiosis, have needs that sit well outside a standard OT assessment.

The clinical picture is complex. The functional decline can be rapid and unpredictable. And the people navigating these cases on behalf of clients need a provider who understands the specific demands of this work, not someone who is figuring it out as they go.

Momentum OT works in this space. We carry out functional assessments, home modification recommendations, and assistive technology evaluations for dust disease clients, with the clinical rigour and documentation standards that this cohort requires.

For the case managers and insurers working in this area, we understand what a referral to us actually needs to achieve. A clear functional picture. Recommendations that reflect the progressive nature of the condition. Documentation that will hold up.

If you work in the dust diseases space and you're looking for an OT provider who knows this territory, we'd welcome a conversation.

We work with a lot of people who are doing their best to stay independent…

But their home is working against them.

We’re talking about things like:
Bathrooms that aren’t safe to use
Entryways that limit mobility
Layouts that increase fatigue or risk of falls
Equipment that isn’t fitted properly (or not there at all)

And over time, this doesn’t just impact safety... It impacts confidence, independence, and quality of life.

At Momentum, a big part of our work is identifying:
👉 What’s getting in the way
👉 What can be adapted
👉 What will actually make daily life easier

That might be:
Simple modifications
Assistive technology
Or more complex home changes

Because the goal isn’t just to cope at home.
It’s to feel safe, capable, and in control within it.

Something has shifted in the NDIS referral landscape, and most Support Coordinators already know it.

The straightforward cases aren't landing on your desk anymore. Budget constraints have changed what gets referred, which means the cases that do come through tend to be the ones that need real clinical thinking, careful documentation, and someone who can step into a complicated situation and make sense of it.

That's the work that gets us out of bed in the morning.

At Momentum OT, we're experienced clinicians who work with complexity as a matter of course. Complex home modifications. Functional capacity assessments that need to be defensible under scrutiny.

Situations where previous OT work hasn't quite landed and someone needs to come in with fresh eyes and a clear plan.

If you've got a case that's been sitting with you because you're not sure what the right next step is, that's exactly the kind of conversation we welcome.

Not all occupational therapy is the same, especially when needs are complex.

In sectors like NDIS, and aged care the level of complexity can be high.

We’re often working with:
Multiple diagnoses
Changing conditions
High-risk environments

Multiple stakeholders involved in decision-making.

In these situations, experience isn’t a “nice to have”... it’s critical.

At Momentum, every clinician brings 5+ years of experience into their work.

Which means:
Assessments are more thorough
Recommendations are more practical
Risks are identified earlier

And plans are built with the bigger picture in mind.

It also means we understand how to navigate systems - not just deliver therapy within them.

Because when needs are complex, you need more than support - you need informed, experienced guidance.

After 21 years, we’re still proudly the flamingo.

Standing tall.
Bold.
A little different.
And not afraid to do things our own way.

At Momentum OT, being different has always been intentional. We’ve built a remote team that values quality over chaos, sustainability over burnout, and trust over micromanagement. A place where experienced Occupational Therapists can do meaningful work and have a life outside of it.

As we move through 2026, our flamingo is still standing strong and we’re ready to welcome a few more into the flock.

We’re looking for experienced OTs (5+ years) who:
• Care deeply about quality outcomes
• Value professionalism and integrity
• Want flexibility without losing connection
• Are done with burnout being treated as “part of the job”

Here, you’re not just another contractor.
You’re part of a team that respects your experience, supports your work-life blend, trusts you to do what you do best and values connection and collaboration, despite being remote.

If you’re ready to stand tall, work differently, and be part of something steady, supportive and proven, we’d love to hear from you.

🦩 Momentum OT – because being different is the point.

One of the biggest gaps we see in occupational therapy is this: progress happens in the appointment - but doesn’t carry over into real life.

At Momentum, our work doesn’t centre around the session.
It centres around how someone is actually living day-to-day.

That means we’re looking at things like:
Can they safely move around their home?
Are daily tasks manageable or exhausting?
Is their environment helping… or making things harder?
Are the supports practical enough to use consistently?

Because real progress isn’t:
✔ Completing an activity once in a session

It’s:
✔ Being able to do it again tomorrow
✔ And the day after that
✔ In your own space, on your own terms

That’s why we work in real environments, not just controlled ones.
Because that’s where life actually happens.
