13.01.2022 Repost from Indigo. survey to assess needs in service provision. Do you work with older people or people with disability? Are you an older person or person with disability? Or perhaps you care for an older person or someone with disability? If you said ‘Yes’ to any of these questions, then this survey is for you! We are currently researching how we can develop a retail approach for allied health products and services that includes assistive technology (devices and equipment) so that it enhances customer experience. Please follow this survey link https://bit.ly/3hzimE4 by the 10th of August to take part and make a difference to the services available for you and others. If you have any questions about the survey, or how to collaborate further, please email us at [email protected]. Thank you.

08.01.2022 In Western Australia alone, Over 7500 children cannot sit, stand, walk, talk or perform some basic aspect of self care without equipment or aid. These children and their families are often discharged from hospital without any information on what therapies, support, equipment and services are available. They are left practically alone with very little support and are expected to discover for themselves. Check out our website for support www.specialaussies.com.au
