Welcome to Hamers Edge

Social work is a university-qualified Allied Health profession that promotes social change, development, cohesion and the empowerment of people and communities. Social workers have knowledge of human behaviour & development, life cycle stages, families & social networks and disability & health, including mental health.

In the NDIS, Social Work Therapeutic Support sits under CB Daily Living.

Hamers Edge's Social Workers are accredited members of the Australian Association of Social Workers (AASW).

Social workers provide a holistic, socio-environmental approach to assessing the functional capacity and support needs of NDIS participants.

At Hamers Edge, we offer complete Functional Capacity Assessments for participants diagnosed with Autism, FASD, Intellectual Disability and certain Psycho-Social Disabilities.

For NDIS Participants with other disabilities, we can work closely together with their Occupational Therapist or Physiotherapist to create a joint, holistic report or provide a socio-environmental report to accompany an existing Functional Capacity Assessment.

The NDIS is a world-class scheme created to assist eligible people with disability to gain an improved quality of life through spending more time with family and friends, obtaining greater independence and new skills, and connection with their community. Having an NDIS Plan is great, but it can also be quite daunting, confusing or stressful at times to know exactly how to use it.

Support Coordination is there to guide you and help you get the best use out of your or your loved one’s plan.
