    About Recovery Partners

    Recovery Partners have been engaged to conduct an independent assessment of your current functional capacity and how your injury or condition impacts your ability to complete activities within your home.

    Our role is to assess and document your current abilities, identify any barriers affecting your independence, and provide recommendations to the referring organisation. We do not make decisions regarding claim liability, funding or treatment approval.

    What to Expect During the Assessment

    The assessment will typically take place in your home and take approximately 60–90 minutes. Before your assessment, you will be sent questionnaires to complete and return prior to the appointment.

    During the assessment, the consultant may:
    • Discuss your medical history and current symptoms.
    • Review how your injury or condition affects your daily activities.
    • Ask questions about your home environment and support systems.
    • Observe you completing selected daily tasks where appropriate and safe to do so.
    • Assess your functional abilities, including mobility, self-care and household tasks.
    • Discuss strategies, equipment, or supports that may assist you to maximise your independence.

    Your participation is voluntary; however, the assessment findings are based on the information provided.

    Photographs

    As part of the assessment, photographs may be taken of relevant areas of your home environment, equipment, or task set-ups to assist with documenting assessment findings and recommendations.
