What is Allied Health Assistance?

Allied health assistance is a healthcare support role. Allied health assistants complete certificate-level training which enables them to work under the direction of a university-qualified allied health professional. They perform various duties that revolve around caring for people and helping allied health professionals. In neurological rehabilitation , AHAs often support people to complete their therapy programs.

Some allied health assistants have completed additional study, such as massage training. Our senior allied health assistant Tiffany has over 10 years’ experience as a registered nurse, so she brings a wide range of skills to her role.

Is Allied Health Assistance right for me?

For many people with neurological conditions, working with an allied health assistant is a cost-effective way to use your funding. Your AHA can see you regularly to assist you with your program. Your allied health professional can check in to update it or to deal with any concerns.

Here’s what working with an allied health assistant at CNRS can look like.

Getting to know each other

Your health journey is a partnership, and setting clear, achievable goals is a key part of our collaborative process. During our initial conversations, we will work together to identify short-term and long-term objectives. Whether it’s improving mobility, managing a chronic condition, or enhancing overall well-being, your goals will guide our approach to your care.

Building a roadmap for success

Your allied health professional will work with you to create a personalised plan for reaching your goals and pass your therapeutic program on to your allied health assistant. You might do some joint sessions together to begin with. Your sessions might be weekly, fortnightly or monthly, with the frequency changed as needed. Your AHA can see you in our Buderim clinic or at home, the pool, or gym. If our AHA has any concerns about your health or progress, they’ll let your therapist know.

Your goal is our purpose

Our allied health assistants will do all they can to help you reach your goals. They’ll work closely with you to make sure you work hard enough to get the benefit, without pushing you too hard.

As part of your therapy team, our AHAs will support you to achieve what matters – from staying steady on your feet at home to getting out into the Sunshine Coast’s beautiful bush and beaches.
