The Certificate IV in Allied Health Assistance will train you to assist patients with their rehabilitation exercises that include physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and conduct group sessions.
You'll work alongside health professionals such as physiotherapists, and occupational therapists to facilitate rehabilitation and to empower clients with strategies for daily living.
Allied health workers assist patients in carrying out routine physiotherapy exercises in groups or individually. Other roles include helping to implement general care and assisting with ongoing therapy. You will also support the implementation of care plans for a diverse range of clients to care for themselves and develop independent living skills.
Work is not limited to hospitals. You can also find employment in community health, rehabilitation centres or via home and special needs school visits.
