Occupational Therapists at Spendelove Private Hospital work with a variety of inpatient and outpatient groups. The aim of Occupational Therapy is to maximise patient’s function and independence in their daily activities.

Counselling Services
Counselling Services are also offered to provide care going beyond the physical, and provide wellness conditioning. We acknowledge that the impact of hospitalisation, diagnosis or treatment may challenge a person’s emotional well-being, thoughts and ideas, beliefs, values and sense of self.At such times patients or families may require the support of one of our counsellors. We embrace a duty of care that holds deep regard for the rights of patients and their relatives to be treated with respect, dignity and integrity and are deserving of care that is genuine, competent, non-judgmental and confidential.

Working in conjunction with medical specialists and other healthcare workers to achieve optimal health through good nutrition, our dietitians play an important role in the multi-disciplinary approach to healthcare.
