Why Families in Australia Choose Therapy Assistants Through MD Home Care

Choosing a therapy provider is a decision built on trust. Here’s how providers earn it.

A Team You Can Trust

Therapy Assistants hold a minimum of Certificate III or IV in Allied Health Assistance. They are rigorously vetted, fully insured, and receive ongoing training and supervision to ensure the highest standard of care.

Better Value from Your NDIS Plan

Using a Therapy Assistant for regular practice is more affordable than exclusively using a senior therapist. This allows you to get more support hours from your NDIS budget, leading to more consistent practice and better outcomes.

Seamless, Coordinated Care

Qualified therapy assistants work directly with your existing therapists or allied health professionals in the network. This team-based approach ensures everyone is aligned with your goals, providing consistent and coordinated support.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between a Support Worker and a Therapy Assistant? A Therapy Assistant has specific qualifications (like a Cert III or IV in Allied Health Assistance) and works under the supervision of a qualified therapist to deliver a specific, goal-oriented therapy plan. A support worker provides more general assistance with daily living tasks.

How do I know if the Therapy Assistant is qualified? MD Home Care connects you with qualified providers who provide full transparency on their qualifications and training. Every assistant in the network is supervised by a registered Allied Health Professional, ensuring quality and safety.

How is this funded in my NDIS plan? Therapy Assistant services are typically funded from your Capacity Building - Improved Daily Living budget. Providers through MD Home Care can help you understand your plan and how to best utilize your funds.
