Benefact Occupational Therapy is not currently accepting new referrals.
We understand this can be frustrating. Thank you for your interest in working with us.
What are your options?
1. You may be able to access specialist OT support through Connected Health Alliance (CHA)
Some people may be eligible to work with Isabella (OT) through CHA’s occupational therapy branch.
CHA is a multidisciplinary service that supports people with:
Complex chronic health conditions
Hypermobility and connective tissue disorders (e.g. EDS)
Chronic pain and fatigue
Psychosocial and invisible disabilities
What this means:
You may still be able to access occupational therapy support
Services may look a bit different to Benefact
Telehealth and in-clinic (University of Wollongong Innovation Campus) options are available
If you would like to explore OT support via CHA, we encourage you to contact CHA directly:
2. Finding another Occupational Therapist
If CHA is not the right fit, you can search for another occupational therapist using:
Occupational Therapy Australia’s “Find an OT” directory: https://otaus.com.au/find-an-ot
This tool can help you find OTs based on:
Location
Area of practice
Telehealth availability
Not sure what to do?
If you’re unsure which option is right for you, that’s okay.
You can:
Take your time to explore services
Reach out to providers and ask questions
Choose what feels like the best fit for your needs
Important
Benefact is currently not maintaining an active waitlist
Submitting a referral via Benefact communication channels will not be reviewed or held for future intake
If you have previously worked with Benefact and need support, please follow the instructions provided in your last communication or contact us via your existing channels.
