  • The Joy and Benefits of Music Therapy 16 May 2022 In 2021, Allied Health ran a fundraising effort through the Charlies Research Foundation “Be a Champ for Charlies” Giving Day. The Allied Health vision was “Returning Quality to Your Life” and one of the projects that was supported through these funds was a Music Therapy program for Geriatric inpatients at SCGH and outpatients in the Parkinson’s Disease Clinic at OPH. Run by Music Therapist Hayley Antipas of Attuned Health, and facilitated by staff at the Clinic, the program recently concluded at OPH with rave reviews. OPH Parkinson's Clinic is a multi-disciplinary outpatient service which provides specialist care to people with Parkinson's Disease and their carers. The Clinic offered the Music Therapy program as an opportunity for patients to add quality to their lives and increase wellbeing alongside their current treatments. Music therapy has a range of b...

  • Care Opinion Australia logo
    Care Opinion - Above and beyond service at OPH 20 April 2020 Care Opinion (external site) is an online platform that enables members of the public to tell us about their experience with our services. This information is used to improve services and to recognise staff and teams who may go above and beyond our patient's expectations. OPH's Occupational Therapy and Physiotherapy staff recently received some wonderful feedback from a grateful senior patient via Care Opinion. "I am a senior who has a disability and am reliant on heavy-duty crutches to enable me to be mobile within my home. One broke and a frantic call to CAEP (Community Aids and Equipment Program) OT, Debbie at Osborne Park Hospital started this rescue mission. I believe she sent an urgent email to Dean, Senior Physio, who located another pair of crutches. He asked his staff if anyone could drop them off to me on their way home. Anita then drove, I believe an extra 40 minutes after wo...
