Why Choose ‘On The Go’ for Cannington Aged Care?

With over 55 years of combined clinical experience, our team understands that aged care is not “one size fits all.” By treating you in your own home, we can identify specific risks—like a loose rug or a steep bathroom step—that a clinic-based therapist would never see. Our goal is to keep you safe, active, and independent in the Cannington community for as long as possible.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Do I need a doctor’s referral for home-based aged care?

No, a referral is not strictly necessary for private or NDIS-funded sessions. However, if you wish to claim a Medicare rebate through a Chronic Disease Management (CDM) plan, you will need a referral from your GP.
