What is Improved Daily Living?
Improved Daily Living covers a wide range of services that help with general life skills so you can live the life you want. This can include greater independence, improved resilience and wellbeing, stronger relationships, and a greater contribution to community life.
Occupational Therapy sits within the Improved Daily Living funding category, and our Occupational Therapists specialise in Functional Capacity Assessments. The purpose of an FCA is to make sure a participant’s needs are understood and the right supports are in place — by identifying a person’s abilities and limitations for everyday tasks. Support needs might include technology, equipment or modifications.
