A typical client caseload at CPA includes working with people living with Cerebral palsy and similar conditions in the majority with >70% being 0-18. Working in a regional area provides opportunity for rapid career development; therapists will have the opportunity to work with a breadth of diagnoses, ages, and disability types, as well as custom moulded seating, high-tech AAC, early intervention and complex mealtime management.
The Port Macquarie clinic is exceptionally well-resourced with 4 specialist treatment rooms, pool cars, ceiling hoists, eye-gaze technology, magic carpet, huge selection of toys, full switch kit (environmental access), wheelchair scale etc. Whilst the majority of your clients will be seen in the clinic (about 70%) we also visit some clients in their homes or community settings. We work on a ‘regional outreach’ model, meaning we service large community hubs in clustered blocks. The frequency of our visits varies, but we will service clients across Port Macquarie/Wauchope, Taree, Forster, Kempsey, and Coffs Harbour.
Port Macquarie is a major regional hub, you can get the flavour of a rural environment whilst still having with access to all necessary resources, lower property costs compared to other coastal towns, and almost no traffic/commute challenges.
