NDIS Stroke Rehabilitation at Home — Across Sydney

Multidisciplinary stroke rehabilitation delivered in your home.
Physio · OT · Exercise Physiology — working as one team.

Home-Based Stroke Rehabilitation That Actually Fits Your Life

After a stroke, recovery doesn’t end when you leave hospital. It continues in your home, your kitchen, your garden, your neighbourhood — and that’s where we come in.

Healthroos provides multidisciplinary stroke rehabilitation across Greater Sydney, combining NDIS physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and exercise physiology — all delivered at home, all coordinated as one team.

For NDIS participants, we work with support coordinators, plan-managers, and your treating team to continue rehab goals without the gaps that can happen after hospital discharge.

One Team. Three Disciplines. Coordinated Care.

Stroke recovery is most effective when physio, OT, and exercise physiology work together.

How We Support Each Stage of Recovery

Every stroke is different. Here’s what rehab typically looks like across recovery phases.

PHASE 01

Early Recovery (0–3 months post-discharge)

Clinical focus: Regaining functional movement, preventing secondary complications, safe mobility at home.

Example interventions: Bed/chair transfers, early gait retraining, home safety assessment, carer education, upper-limb stimulation, swallowing/communication referrals where needed.

PHASE 02

Consolidation (3–12 months)

Clinical focus: Building strength and endurance, expanding daily independence, community re-engagement.

Example interventions: Progressive strengthening, task-specific practice, cognitive rehabilitation, AT prescriptions, graded community outings, driving assessment referrals.

PHASE 03

Long-term Maintenance (12+ months)

Clinical focus: Preventing decline, optimising function, supporting meaningful participation.

Example interventions: Ongoing exercise programming, secondary prevention, annual FCAs, plan-review reports, transition to community gym or sport.

Stroke Rehabilitation FAQs

How soon after a stroke can rehab start at home?

Home-based rehab can start as soon as your treating team clears discharge from hospital or inpatient rehab. We respond to referrals within 4 business hours and can often begin assessments within 1–2 weeks.

Do you work alongside hospital rehab teams?

Yes. We coordinate with treating specialists, hospital discharge planners, and support coordinators to continue rehab goals at home without gaps. We can receive handover notes and share progress reports back with the broader team.

Is stroke rehabilitation covered under NDIS?

For NDIS participants with stroke listed as a primary or secondary disability, rehabilitation may be funded under Improved Daily Living or Improved Health and Wellbeing budget categories. Your support coordinator can help confirm which budget applies.

Can you support early-stage stroke recovery?

Yes. Our multidisciplinary team is experienced with all stages of stroke recovery — from early subacute rehab through to long-term maintenance and community reintegration.

What if I'm not an NDIS participant?

We also see clients through private pay, HCP/Support at Home, DVA, and WorkCover. Contact us to discuss your specific situation.
