Frequently Asked Questions

What does an Occupational Therapy session involve?

At your initial consultation, our skilled Occupational Therapist in Launceston will conduct a detailed assessment to gain a clear understanding of your personal goals, needs, and daily challenges. This essential first step allows us to develop a customised rehabilitation plan designed just for you. At Health First Group, we believe in a collaborative, client-focused approach—ensuring your therapy journey is aligned with your unique path to recovery.

How can I prepare for my first appointment?

To get the most out of your first Occupational Therapy session, we suggest bringing along any relevant medical history or documentation that offers insight into your condition. It’s also beneficial to prepare a list of any questions or concerns you’d like to discuss. Arriving well-prepared helps ensure a focused and informative consultation, setting a strong foundation for your personalised treatment plan.

Is Occupational Therapy covered by my insurance?

At Health First Group, we aim to make accessing Occupational Therapy simple and convenient. Our services are accepted by most major private health insurance providers, and we offer on-site HICAPS facilities for fast, hassle-free claims processing. To avoid surprises, we recommend confirming your Occupational Therapy coverage directly with your health insurer before your visit.

How can I make a referral to Health First OT?

Accessing Occupational Therapy at Health First Group is easy and straightforward—no referral is needed. You’re welcome to schedule an appointment directly at a time that suits you. If you prefer, your GP can also provide guidance or recommendations. Our priority is to ensure your rehabilitation journey is seamless, supportive, and tailored to your individual needs.
