We are now able to assess anywhere across Australia, at any time, with our complex evidence based protocol.

The telehealth assessment platform uses a  2 stage protocol, which allows scheduled appointments to proceed with minimal interruption, whilst still providing accurate clinical assessment data for formulation of opinion.

Clinical testing is facilitated by trained allied health professionals, either within the home or within a clinical setting, with Sanja assessing via AVL Zoom link.

Benefits:

  • Expert and client travel costs are dramatically reduced;
  • Higher client reach due to fewer location and travel barriers;
  • Improved efficiency in assessment times;
  • Improved allocation of physical resources for clinical assessment;
  • Clinical assessments are undertaken within the client’s accessible community by a local health care provider, under specialist guidance and supervision;
  • Clients are more relaxed and comfortable, allowing for better performance in clinical testing;
  • Two eyes are better than one – clinical assessment with an EP / Therapy Aid ensures a further layer of cross validation of clinical observations and results interpretation.

We provide objective, independent assessment of cognitive, emotional, and physical impairment resulting from injury disability management and illness.

Our approach is to review the case specific evidence against clinical assessment to identify the true gaps in function, in order to provide best practice, evidence based recommendations on care and assistance, environmental modification, and use of adaptive technologies.

Identification of capacity to engage in the broad spectrum of life tasks, relating to both Personal Activities of Daily Living and Instrumental Activities of Daily Living.

Discovery of gaps and associated costs in personal and domestic care, home modification requirements, and ongoing treatment.

Assessment of true needs for optimal participation in life, based on pre accident involvement. Includes Life Care Planning and cost analysis.

Identification of solutions to maximise participation in relation to vocational activities, education, parenting and other personal, social and community function requirements.

We specialise in assessment of catastrophic and major claims, with expert witness experience in local jurisdictions, the Supreme Court, and internationally.

Our extensive experience in the management of musculoskeletal injury has enabled the development of concise and accurate screening of plaintiff function in minor claims.
