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 combinations of:
Neurodevelopmental disability
Cognitive impairment
Severe mental illness
Experiences of trauma
Justice involvement
Multiple and intersecting systems involvement
We offer:
Complex Disability Assessment
We regularly complete standalone Functional Capacity Assessment, Functional Behaviour Assessment and Sensory Assessment.We occasionally 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.
Positive Behaviour Support Intervention
Our approach to Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) practice is relational, trauma-informed, and neuroaffirming. -
