About this template

The NDIS Initial template is a comprehensive documentation tool designed for occupational therapists to assess and document the needs of individuals with disabilities. This template covers a wide range of areas including medical history, medication management, social supports, education, cognition, communication, mobility, and daily living activities. It is particularly useful for creating detailed initial assessments for clients under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS).
