• People living with complex disability-related needs in rural and regional communities often face significant barriers to accessing experienced clinicians — particularly where presentations involve behaviours of concern, justice involvement, forensic risk, severe mental illness or system complexity.

    Rural Focus Impact Group was established to bridge this gap, bringing mobile allied health services to communities where specialist capability is often limited or unavailable.

    We work with people experiencing:

    • Neurodevelopmental disability

    • Cognitive impairment

    • Psychosocial disability and severe mental illness

    • Justice involvement or offending-related vulnerability

    • Restrictive practice concerns

    • Multiple and intersecting systems involvement

    We offer:

    Complex Disability Assessment
    We regularly complete standalone Functional Capacity Assessment, Functional Behaviour Assessment and Sensory Assessment.

    We also collaborate with Griffith Psychology, to offer a regional multidisciplinary assessment pathway for individuals with complex support needs. This collaborative initiative brings together experienced clinicians across Clinical Psychology, Forensic Psychology, Neuropsychology, and Occupational Therapy to provide comprehensive, integrated assessment and planning.

    Our multidisciplinary model is designed to support complex presentations where a single-discipline perspective may not fully capture the individual’s needs, risks, strengths, and support requirements.

    Positive Behaviour Support Intervention
    Our approach to PBS practice is relational, neuroaffirming, and grounded in the understanding that behaviour is communication. We prioritise sensory modulation, co-regulation, and attachment-informed practice, recognising that people are more able to learn, participate, and develop adaptive skills to regulate themselves safely when they feel safe, supported, and are understood.

    By combining environmental modification with meaningful engagement, we create opportunities for clients to build functional skills, for self-regulation, across real-life contexts.

    We work collaboratively alongside a client and their multidisciplinary support teams to understand underlying needs, strengthen participation, decrease risk and support capacity building for lasting behaviour change.
