Who we support Brain injury and stroke
Acquired Brain Injury and Stroke Support in the Sunshine Coast
Support after an acquired brain injury or stroke, built around what you want to get back to and what has changed.
Life after, not life before
An acquired brain injury or stroke changes things: memory, energy, mood, movement, how much a day can hold. Support that works starts from where you are now, not from where you were, and it is honest about both.
The rehabilitation itself sits with your medical and allied health team. What we do is the day to day alongside it: getting to appointments, keeping a routine, getting out again, and building back the things you want to get back.
Fatigue and overwhelm are part of most people’s picture, so sessions are paced, and a hard day changes the plan and does not count against you.

What support can look like
Practical, paced, and shaped around what matters to you.
Routines
Structure that holds when memory and energy are unreliable.
Getting to appointments
Rehab, specialists, therapy. Getting there, and remembering what was said.
Getting out again
Community access at a pace that suits, starting smaller than before.
Home
Personal care and household support where things have become hard.
Working with your team
We coordinate with your rehab and medical team when you want us to.
Social work
Assessment, reports and the case management a complex picture often needs.
Where we work
Across the Sunshine Coast and Moreton Bay
The same team and the same approach wherever you are. If you are just outside these areas, ask us. We will say yes or no.
Pacing
Fatigue is real, and we plan around it.
Shorter sessions, quieter places, and no schedule you are failing to keep. Progress happens at the pace your recovery allows.
- Sessions paced for fatigue
- The same worker, who knows what has changed
- Coordination with your rehab team at your say-so
- A plan that adapts on a bad day
Questions about brain injury and stroke support
Is this rehabilitation?
No. Rehabilitation is clinical and sits with your medical and allied health team. We provide the day-to-day support alongside it, and we coordinate with them when you want us to.
I get very tired. Will that be a problem?
No. Fatigue is part of most people’s picture after a brain injury or stroke. Sessions are paced, and a tired day changes the plan and does not count against you.
Can you help with memory?
Practically, yes: routines, reminders, written plans, and a worker who remembers what happened last time so you do not have to.
Can family be involved?
As much as you choose. Many people want family in the planning; some want the support to be theirs alone. Both are fine.
What do you want to get back to?
Start there. We will pace the rest.
