About us

Quad Care’s mission is to support allied health practitioners to deliver truly meaningful and outcomes-based therapy to people and their families living with disability. We support our Allied Health team to value time, creative problem solving and communication over profits and punitive KPI’s.

At the heart of all decision making in the business is our clients, ALWAYS. We give our team the space and creative freedom to bring together their unique strengths, identifying new ways to deliver respectful and impactful services that are truly valuable to the individual client and their community.

If you are passionate about genuinely helping others, showing attention to detail in your therapy and working in a community-centred environment with exciting career prospects, then we want to help you make that happen. Because our clients are worth it, and you deserve to experience an organisation that shows gratitude for your contribution to the community.

The opportunity

Quad Care is a growing organisation specialising in community support services in the Moreton Bay Region. We’ve recently expanded our team to include allied health clinicians and are excited about the difference this multidisciplinary approach can make to our clients. Our goal is an integration of allied health and support work across the company, enhancing both the therapeutic outcomes and daily community supports.

Our clients and referrers come to us because they trust us and our values are aligned. Each client knows that we strive to understand and accommodate their needs and tailor our support to help them achieve their goals. They value and appreciate the difference our care makes.

We’re setting the standards for quality, ethical care and what people should expect and receive from their NDIS support providers, working toward best practices and being leaders in our community.

You’ll join an organisation built by people with lived experience of disability, ensuring that all decisions and processes are genuinely client-centered and quality-focused. Your role will include:

• Paediatric focus – the majority of your case load will be aged under 15 years
• Clinical, sensory and mental health assessments.
• Utilise objective assessment outcome measures tailored to your client’s self-care and occupational performance needs.

About you

To launch successfully into this role, you’ll have:

• 1-2+ years of paediatric occupational therapy practice experience, including working within the community and providing supports and services under the NDIS.
• A personal desire to work a paediatric cohort
• Current AHPRA registration and professional indemnity insurance.
• Current driver’s license and your own transport.

We’re passionate about supporting our team members’ professional and personal growth. So, we’re looking for a willingness and drive to learn and grow, plus to contribute your knowledge and skills to the rest of the team.

You will have the desire to bring fresh ideas to the community, working to educate and advocate for local people to improve their lives through integrated support networks. Your excellent communication skills, empathy and responsiveness, professionalism, attention to detail and ability to prioritise and successfully organise your time will make you an invaluable team member.
