Celebrating Tim: Winner of Consultant of the Year at the 2023 Altius Awards

Tim, NDIS Consultant and Senior Occupational Therapist has been named NDIS Consultant of the Year at the 2023 Altius Awards. This award speaks to Tim’s dedication, exceptional skills, and remarkable contributions to our organisation and the clients we serve. 

Impact on Clients

Throughout 2023, Tim has made a profound difference in the lives of many participants. One standout success story involved a participant who had previously been denied Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) housing funding after being assessed by another occupational therapist. Thanks to Tim's thorough assessment in December 2023 and his detailed reporting on the participant’s needs, the funding decision was overturned, allowing the participant to access SDA housing. This success showcases Tim's perseverance and commitment to achieving the best outcomes for his clients.

Holistic Approach

Tim looks at his clients with a holistic approach to ensure they have access to multidisciplinary services to address their unique needs. He collaborates with colleagues to provide tailored solutions that could help clients achieve their goals quickly.

A Team Player

Tim’s contributions extend beyond individual client work—he is an invaluable team player. He has worked closely with Exercise Physiologists in both the Central Coast and Newcastle areas, strengthening relationships with support coordinators and facilitating introductions to EPs across the Tuggerah and Newcastle offices. His collaborative efforts have helped create a supportive and productive environment for the entire National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) team. Additionally, Tim has taken on a mentorship role, guiding three Therapy Assistants as they develop their skills and enhance their ability to deliver effective therapy to participants.

Building Strong Relationships

Since relocating to the Central Coast in May 2023 and initiating NDIS services at the Tuggerah office, he has been a sought-after Occupational Therapist and well recognised as a NDIS consultant in the community. His ability to cultivate and maintain strong relationships with all stakeholders has been instrumental in making services accessible to NDIS participants and improving client outcomes. 

We extend our warmest congratulations to Tim for this well-deserved recognition. His dedication, innovation, teamwork, and exceptional relationship-building skills embody the core values of Altius Group. We are proud to have him as part of our team and are excited to see what he achieves in the future.
