What is Allied Health?
In plain English
Health professionals other than doctors and nurses. Occupational therapists, physiotherapists, speech pathologists, psychologists and dietitians are all allied health professionals.
Allied health professionals deliver much of the therapy funded under the NDIS. Occupational therapists, physiotherapists, speech pathologists, psychologists, dietitians and exercise physiologists all sit under this banner. They assess your needs, write reports the NDIA relies on, and deliver hands on therapy. Many allied health professionals work as unregistered or independent providers, so self-managed and plan-managed participants have a wide choice.
