Myalgic Encephalomyelitis Group Australia Ltd (ME Group Australia) is a registered Australian charity whose purpose is to advance health for people with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (pwME) by undertaking any of the following activities:

1. Creating and or facilitating a network for ME patients and communities.
2. Promoting the official diagnosis of ME for Disability Support Pension, NDIS Access Requ

est, and research participation.
4. Providing support for research into the causes, diagnosis, treatment and/or management of the disease.
5. Providing information for patients and medical professionals regarding the most recent developments in best practice for diagnosing, treating and/or managing ME.
6. Establishing and operating clinics for the diagnosis, management and treatment of ME, for research collaboration and the provision of support for sufferers.
7. Lobbying and facilitating the Application for the Recognition of Medical Specialty of ME under the Health Practitioner Regulation National Law.
* These activities may be undertaken on an Australia wide basis

We envisage the first ME Clinic as a small GP surgery style in Logan City, QLD which will provide “official ME diagnosis” and symptom management strategy until effective pharmaceutical treatment is introduced through research and trials. Until such time as better diagnostic criteria can be published, the company will adopt Myalgic Encephalomyelitis: International Consensus Criteria (ME (ICC)) for planning and operation of the company. The clinic will adopt International Consensus Primer for Medical Practitioners (ICP) as a guideline for diagnosis and management. Logan City is conveniently located between Brisbane and Gold Coast where participants of The National Centre for Neuroimmunology and Emerging Diseases (NCNED) is concentrated.

This is a very important survey and we are part of this project.

Please share your post code in the original post.

We would also encourage Queenslanders to add your postcode.

We say this again, this is important!

🙏🌻💙👊

Everyone deserves access to the care they need — no matter where they live.

Australians living with ME/CFS and Fibromyalgia need equal access to knowledgeable, appropriate and affordable care within their local communities.

Your postcode shouldn’t determine the quality of care you receive.

It’s time for equitable access, better services and meaningful action.

This is it! The special launch price for the Skills for OTs CPD Bundle officially ends tonight at midnight.

If you are on the fence, I want you to picture what it will feel like to move your practice from uncertainty to autopilot:
• Systematic Frameworks: No more guessing or second-guessing your decisions. Follow proven processes that build your personal efficiency.
• Targeted Supervision Prep: Bring highly specific questions to your supervision, making the absolute most of your mentoring time.
• Consolidation Through Repetition: With 2 years of access, you can quickly review a tutorial right before seeing a client to make the knowledge stick.
• Autopilot Flow: Eventually, these core processes will run automatically, saving you hours of mental fatigue and report-writing stress.

You don't have to just take my word for it. Here is what one OT recently shared about my teaching style:
"Clare has a way of breaking down complex clinical processes into bite-sized, practical steps. I walked away not just understanding the theory, but actually knowing exactly what to write in my report and what to do in my next session!"

You get 10 tutorials, 3 bonus workshops, 2 years of access, and all the clinical downloads for just $197.

Grab it before the clock runs out tonight!

If someone requires 24/7 support, do they automatically qualify for SIL?

It might sound like an obvious yes, but there’s more to consider.

For SIL, we need to understand what that support actually looks like across the full 24 hours.

How many hours of active disability support are required? What happens during the remaining hours? Is overnight support active or inactive? Could another model meet the participant’s needs more appropriately?

It’s not simply about establishing that support is needed around the clock. As OTs, we need to assess the nature, frequency and intensity of that support and clearly evidence why SIL is the most appropriate option.

I’ll be unpacking this, along with ILO and the OT’s role in assessing and reporting on different home and living pathways, live on Tuesday 15 September from 11.30am to 2.00pm AEST.

If home and living assessments are part of your practice, I’d love to have you join me!! Register via the Verve OT Learning website!
