Community Forum: Allied health services for people with disability & developmental delay

National Disability Services are looking at the allied health workforce. We’ve heard that people with disability and developmental delay in rural and remote areas of Tasmania can wait too long to see an allied health therapist.

• What are your recommendations that you think might help you solve issues?

Who should attend?

• People with disability
• Carers and family members
• Allied health therapists
• Advocates
• Support workers and allied health assistants
• Disability Service providers
