At Reverence Community Care, our Allied Health Assistants (AHAs) provide vital support in delivering Occupational Therapy and Speech Pathology services under the supervision of qualified therapists. They help reinforce therapy goals through real-life practice in homes, schools, and community settings—ensuring children have consistent opportunities to grow, practise, and succeed.
What Is an Allied Health Assistant?
An Allied Health Assistant is a trained professional who works alongside a certified Occupational Therapist or Speech Pathologist. While they don’t design therapy plans, AHAs assist in delivering and reinforcing those plans in everyday environments. They help bridge the gap between clinic-based therapy and daily life, supporting better outcomes for children and families.
