About Us

MC Occupational Therapy provide personalised client-centred approach to individuals and their support network by enabling active participation in assessment, problem solving and recommendations.

This collaborative approach is harnessed when addressing the client’s needs and goals holistically and realistically within the limitations of funding bodies and their criteria.

This would include supporting and accommodating changes for the client and their carers regarding independence impacted by age, medical conditions, disabilities, and other factors on occupational performance. In service delivery, we aim to perform critically, use evidence-based knowledge, and articulate beliefs and recommendations to real-world applications.

All employees of MC Occupational Therapy respect the diversity of individuals, and aim to generate empathetic and effective therapeutic relationships with clients and their support network.
