Can you help us raise the standard of disability care in Australia?
Ally Assist has a core team of 8 and a workforce of 300+ therapy assistants (and growing fast). Our vision is to make it simple and human for people and families to get more therapy hours to achieve their goals. Visit out website on www.allyassist.com.au.
It can be challenging coming up with a therapy plan for a client when it’s likely that in-between sessions the plan won’t be utilised. Many people with disabilities and their families do not have the time and resources to practice their therapy plans between sessions. Waitlists to find allied health professionals (AHPs) are reaching critical levels, and those that do eventually manage to find support struggle to manage the collaboration between team members.
We want you to help us develop a new way to empower people living with a disability to reach their goals. We are bringing new AHPs into the disability sector AND increasing the capability of each AHP by working with therapy assistants. In the same way a hospital Speechie or OT might have some university students helping with their caseload, we want to bring the same to the community setting.
By having short waitlists, intuitive tech, seamless collaboration and empowered users, we can raise the standard of disability care.
As well as building our team, we’re building technology that does two things:
We have developed an online system that helps you easily find and manage your clients, as well as stay up to date with sessions your therapy assistants have been doing. With your help, our aim is to continue building and refining this to add progress tracking, reporting, games and anything else we come up with!
You’ll be working directly with our founders to design the future of work for community Speechies and OTs.
You’ll be splitting up your time between the following:
Our ultimate goal is to create a workplace that supports our Speechies and OTs, and empowers them to empower our clients and their families.
We're looking for reliable, self-aware people who are keen to collaborate and grow themselves professionally and personally. The ability to champion our values matters to us; we care about our team culture and you'll be joining a group of compassionate individuals who want each other to be happy and successful.
We know that people with all of these skills do not exist! But hopefully you can help us with some of these. As long as you’re excited to build the best possible therapy experience for all our stakeholders, we’ll work together to develop your skills. In an ideal world you’ll have:
