Does this sound like you?
Are you an Allied Health Assistant or Therapy Assistant working with children?
We get what it’s like to be new to this work, we’ve been there. Becoming part of a new team and staying on top of everything can feel overwhelming.
Ever feel like this?
1
You are starting work as a Therapy Assistant. But not sure where to start, what to do or how best to support your clients. You need guided support on how to make the best use of your time and resources.
2
You are not sure where to start for training, and building up your skills in working with children. You need a course that fills you with confidence that you will find the content useful every single day.
3
You are feeling out of your depth, managing a caseload, developing fun sessions, managing behaviour and participation. What you need is a course that gives you the confidence, foundations and skills to move forward with plans you can put into practice.
I learnt vital skills around my role as an OTA!
“Coming from working as a OT assistant in the past, I struggled within an environment with little support and direction throughout my job. By completing the Therapy Assistant seminar, I learnt vital skills around my role as an OTA, the business structures that allow me to work as an OTA while studying, levels of support that are necessary for me, as well as understanding developmental milestones and clinical skills that bettered me as a clinician. Ultimately, the seminar allowed me to understand who I am and who I strive to be as a therapy assistant.”
