Allied Health
Allied Health Assistants (AHAs) stand as pillars of support, dedicated to enhancing the wellbeing of individuals across diverse health domains. In collaboration with our allied health professionals, AHAs at Wildflowers contribute significantly to the delivery of patient-centred care.
AHAs work closely with clinicians, implementing tailored therapeutic goals for our clients. Engaging in one-on-one therapy, they offer hands-on professional support. Regular progress updates and reporting of challenges to supervising clinicians are key components of their role. Like all clinicians at Wildflowers, our AHAs participate in regular supervision from board-approved supervisors every fortnight, as well as in our fortnightly peer supervision. This ensures continuous learning and collaborative growth. Beyond the clinic setting, our AHAs extend their support into schools and homes, seamlessly translating therapeutic strategies into practical, everyday environments. This comprehensive approach enhances the integration of learned strategies within a client's natural environment.
