From the moment I began my journey with PRS Support Services, I was met with nothing but the highest level of integrity and professionalism. My occupational therapist, Hayley, demonstrated an exceptional duty of care that truly exceeded my expectations.

PRS have been wonderful to work with. Their OT’s demonstrate a person centred and trauma-informed approach to their work. They are wonderful to work with and have achieved great outcomes for our mutual clients. They are approachable, timely and dedicated. The admin team are also on it! A testament to great management 😊.

Ala AParent
Aaron is a great OT - Providers who do as an amazing Job and are as responsive as you are, are super hard to come by – it was an honest observation based off my experiences! Credit where credit is due!
Tory MSupport Coordinator
Valentina - Thanks for the effort you have put into this document - it is comprehensive, well thought through and a good balance of David's history, and more recent developments in terms of declining health and mobility and his moving to a new residence, with new housemates.
Mark RRepresentative
Michelle, as with Marissa, has also been incredible to provide a report for the same client Marissa assisted with on very short notice, and also helped me to better understand the client and her condition, which I was not familiar with. This has helped me not only understand the clients needs, but to also communicate better with them.
Dennis RSupport Coordinator
I just want to thank you so very much for what you did today… Leading that meeting, bringing up all the concerns, and just being so in tune to mine and Harley’s needs… Mean so much.
Carmen SCarer
I just wanted to share some feedback about Aaron. He has just been exceptional! From when he first took on the participants at Sunnyfield SIL homes he has been phenomenal. Always willing to take on one more from one of the homes that needs something, sharing information and communicating what has happened, the plan moving forward.
Sarah MSupport Coordinator
Isabel, myself, and the team at St Anne’s, would like to thank you very much for your support and understanding as Maria’s psychologist.  Please know that over the years, I don’t recall Maria feeling as comfortable with an allied health professional as she did with you - much appreciated.
