How We Work

Scope works in partnership with people with a disability, families and support people to: 

  • identify and meet the goals of the person with a disability and/or those who support them
  • work collaboratively with the community to support the inclusion of people with a disability
  • develop flexible approaches to meeting those goals  

We measure the effectiveness of our services in a range of ways, including using a tool that allows the people we work with to rate the outcomes of our support.

Services are offered to all people with a disability. Many of our services are funded and others can be purchased on a fee-for-service basis.

Our team

Scope’s team includes physiotherapists, speech pathologists, occupational therapists and psychologists.
