Functional Capacity Assessments

Functional Capacity Assessments or “FCA’s” 

​

We provide detailed assessments to support independence at home, in the community, at work, or in school. 

 

 

 

What does an FCA Involve?

​

The FCA evaluates several critical areas of daily life, including: 

  • Physical and cognitive abilities 

  • Communication and social needs 

  • Daily living skills 

  • Assistive technology 

  • Mental health and wellbeing 

  • Sensory preferences 

  • Work, study, and leisure 

​

Our goal is to understand your needs and help create practical strategies for everyday life 

Person-centred

Why get an FCA?

​Think of an FCA as a roadmap for life skills and independence. It shows what someone can do, where they need a hand, and how supports can help them thrive.

 

An FCA helps to: â€‹

  • Spot strengths and challenges in everyday life.

  • Recommend or plan supports that actually make a difference.

  • Guide funding and therapeutic decisions, including NDIS planning.

  • Set goals and track progress over time.

  • Boost confidence, independence, and participation in school, work, or the community.

  • Give families and carers a clear picture of what may be needed.

​

In short, an FCA provides clear, practical direction. It helps align supports with functional needs and provides evidence to inform funding and planning decisions.
