About the Role

Offering a stepped approach to care, the hubs provide tailored support, treatment, and intervention based on evidence and validated assessment tools.

  • System Development: Develop systems, processes, and tools for consistent engagement, referral, and transition. Manage an allied health service map to streamline services.
  • Project Work: Lead projects to develop information tools for diverse audiences, consult on a collaborative information portal, and create individualised referral pathways for neurodiverse individuals, including children under 12.

Care Environment: The role is based within the Head to Health Kids Hub, which offers a unique opportunity to work collaboratively with medical professionals, allied health staff, psychologists, and early childhood development experts to deliver bio-psycho-socio-cultural assessments and interventions that complement and enhance existing services for children and their families.
