Low wages, high caseload and poor standard of therapy - Recensione dipendente - Speech Therapist presso AEIOU Foundation

Due to the ABA structure registered allied health professionals have to operate under their umbrella and deliver a very low standard of therapy. Therapist are expected to be babysitters and act as daycare staff. Families are told their children are receiving occupational therapy but OTs are not able to conduct any standardised assessments or client centred interventions. Huge turn over and usually only staffed by new graduates. It’s essentially a very expensive daycare centre. Wages are also very low.
