Managing new referrals and enquiries, including CHSP clients

Completing initial clinical and risk screening, including falls history, medical history, living arrangements and relevant risk factors

Identifying client needs and supporting appropriate therapy planning and care coordination

Liaising with clients, families, carers and members of the allied health team

Maintaining accurate and timely client records using Splose and internal systems

You’ll also use your physiotherapy experience to assess clients remotely and guide physiotherapy programs delivered in the community. This will include:

Conducting person-centred physiotherapy assessments and reviews via telehealth

Supporting clients with mobility, strength, balance, falls prevention, pain management, rehabilitation and functional independence

Developing individualised exercise and therapy programs aligned with each client’s goals and clinical needs

Providing clinical direction and support to designated Allied Health Assistants delivering programs in the community

Monitoring client progress and adapting programs, precautions, progressions or regressions where required

Providing practical education and guidance to clients, families, carers and Allied Health Assistants

Why Talk Health Therapy?

At Talk Health Therapy, we care about delivering quality therapy while creating a workplace where clinicians feel trusted, supported and connected.

We’re a privately owned, clinician-led allied health practice, and we value good people, open communication, strong clinical reasoning and genuinely collaborative care.

This role is a little different from the traditional community physiotherapy position. You won’t simply be moving from appointment to appointment. Instead, you’ll have the opportunity to use your experience across triage, telehealth, clinical decision-making and Allied Health Assistant support, helping make sure clients receive safe, individualised and effective care within their own communities.

If you’re an experienced Physiotherapist looking for greater flexibility while still doing clinically meaningful work, we’d love to hear from you.

Please note: We are unable to offer employer sponsorship for this position at this time.
