Rollin' into Spring like our Dietitian Jamie, who found this amazing lunch spot by the lake while out and about supporting clients across the region! ☀️😎

One of the things our team loves about community-based Allied Health is the variety that comes with every day. From helping people achieve meaningful goals, to enjoying a coffee by the beach or lunch in the sun between visits, no two days are quite the same 🙌🏼

If you're looking for a career that combines clinical excellence, flexibility, autonomy and genuine work-life balance, we'd love to hear from you!

We're always on the lookout for great Allied Health professionals to join our growing team 👉🏼 https://loom.ly/etrBg5E

Can you guess where this is? 🤔

Curious about your bone health? 🦴

The primary method for assessing bone strength is through a Bone Mineral Density (BMD) scan, commonly known as a DEXA scan.

This non-invasive, low-radiation procedure accurately measures the calcium and mineral content within your bones, providing crucial insights into your bone health.

Understanding your bone density is a key step in proactive health management.

This is one of the many things we talk about in our SeniorStrong Program, an 8-week ONLINE program with weekly educational videos and exercises for seniors.

Today, Madi and Sam are representing our at the Disability & Aged Care Expo in Broadmeadow! 👋🏼

It’s a great opportunity to connect with people in our local community, meet other organisations and providers, and chat about how Allied Health can support people to achieve their goals and live more independently.

If you're at the Expo today, make sure you come and say hello to Madi and Sam at the Community Therapy stand! 😊

A big thank you to the organisers for bringing together such a fantastic range of services and organisations supporting people living with disability and older adults across our community. 💙

Exercise is important... but so is having something to look forward to each week 💙

Our senior exercise groups are about much more than improving strength and balance...

They're about staying connected, sharing a laugh, building confidence and being part of a supportive community where everyone encourages one another 🥰

Of course, there's plenty of movement too! Our classes are designed to help older adults:
💪🏼 Build strength
⚖️ Improve balance
🕺🏼 Move with greater confidence
🏡 Stay independent for longer

But one of our favourite parts is seeing the friendships that develop along the way. There's always time for a chat, a smile and a few laughs between exercises ✨

Whether you're looking to stay active, reduce your risk of falls or simply enjoy exercising with others, we'd love to welcome you!

One of the underrated perks of being a mobile Allied Health clinician?

Your lunch break can look like this! ☀️🥪

No fluorescent lunchrooms. Just some sunshine, fresh air and a chance to reset between supporting clients in the community 💙

Here are our Physios Jess and Kasey making the most of a beautiful day while out and about supporting clients across the region 😊

Colours of Courage 💜

This Wear It Purple Day, we're celebrating the courage shown by LGBTQIA+SB people — not only in the big moments, but in the everyday choices to live proudly, support one another and create spaces where everyone feels safe, accepted and included.

As allied health providers, we’re proud to support the wellbeing, participation and inclusion of LGBTQIA+SB people and their families. A few of our added a little purple to their CT uniforms to show their support! 💜

Because representation matters.

And so do the small, everyday actions that help create a community where people can be themselves, feel supported and know they belong.

Through compassionate, person-centred allied health support, we’re committed to helping create safe and inclusive spaces where every young person can feel empowered to thrive.

Thank you to everyone who joined us in showing a little extra colour and courage this Wear It Purple Day. 🌈💜

What if you could experience the taste of pizza... without actually eating it? 🍕👀

Our Dietetics and Speech Pathology teams recently got to try out something a little different...

Taste Safe oral dissolvable flavour strips!

These small strips dissolve in the mouth and provide a burst of flavour without requiring the person to eat or swallow food.

So why might something like this be useful?

For some people with significant swallowing difficulties, eating and drinking may not be safe or possible. But that doesn't mean they've stopped wanting to experience the taste, enjoyment and sensory experience of food. 💙

Flavour strips can provide an opportunity for taste stimulation and sensory experiences in situations where traditional food or drink isn't appropriate, under the guidance of the relevant health professionals.

And look at the flavours our team got to try... 👀

🍕 Pizza
🥩 Steak
🍫 Chocolate
🍛 Thai green curry
☕ Coffee

We love seeing our Dietetics and Speech Pathology teams exploring innovative ways to support the people we work with.

Because Allied Health isn't always about the things you might expect... sometimes it's about finding a way to help someone experience something as simple (and meaningful!) tasting flavours 💙

As we age, we naturally lose muscle mass, especially in our legs and core, which are crucial for maintaining stability.

This decline in strength directly impacts our ability to recover balance when we stumble.

Luckily, there is a lot we can do to prevent falls in the home and the community!

Prioritising strength and balance training can be significantly reduce the risk of accidents.

Are you wondering what the other 3 key factors are? 🤔 We cover all of this in our SeniorStrong Program, an 8-week ONLINE program with weekly educational videos and exercises for seniors.

Swallowing is something most of us never think about… until it becomes difficult.

For many older adults, changes to swallowing can make mealtimes stressful, uncomfortable or even unsafe. But with the right assessment and support, eating and drinking can become safer, more enjoyable and less worrying.

In this video, our Speech Pathologist Sophie is completing a swallowing assessment with Mary. As part of the assessment, Mary is trying a variety of food and drink textures, including toast with a spread, peaches in juice, and tea, to help assess how she manages different consistencies and identify the supports or strategies that may be beneficial for her.

Speech Pathologists don't just help with communication... they also play an important role in assessing and managing swallowing difficulties (also known as dysphagia).

Our goal is always to help people continue enjoying the everyday moments that matter most, whether that's sharing a meal with family, catching up over a cup of tea, or feeling more confident at mealtimes.

This Speech Pathology Week, we're highlighting one of the many ways Speech Pathologists support people across every stage of life, and celebrating the incredible work Speech Pathologists do to help people communicate, connect and enjoy life's everyday moments.

If you or someone you care about is experiencing coughing during meals, food sticking, frequent chest infections or changes to swallowing, a Speech Pathologist may be able to help.

A child’s first words. A confident conversation. A shared meal with loved ones. 💙

Behind these everyday moments are incredible Speech Pathologists helping make them possible.

This Speech Pathology Week, we're celebrating our incredible Speech Pathology teams who support people of all ages to communicate, connect and participate in everyday life.

Every person’s communication journey is unique, and we love seeing the creativity, compassion and expertise our Speechies bring to every session.
