Icaria Health

At Icaria Health, our discipline-specific team time happens monthly. It brings together Occupational Therapists, Physiotherapists, Exercise Physiotherapists, Speech Pathologists, and Allied Health Assistants from both paediatric and adult clinics. During these sessions, team members discuss specific topics, learn from each other, and share experiences. We’re committed to professional growth and supporting our team! 💪

✨️ Empowering the community through training! ✨️

In the last two days, Liana and Sarah from Liberator hosted a training session on the LAMP approach right here in the Albury Wodonga Community within our paediatric building! 🧠💡

WHAT'S LAMP, you ask ❔️❔️
It's a therapeutic method rooted in neurological and motor learning principles, designed to empower individuals who are non-verbal or have limited verbal abilities to express themselves independently and spontaneously in any setting. 🗣🌟

How exciting to have access to this training right in our community! 🚀

Berrigan's the ultimate fun hub! 🙌

Yesterday morning, we enjoyed some yummy breakfast at Cafe' Musette, sipped our coffees, and celebrated the admin team here at Icaria Health. Their cheerful demeanor and ability to juggle a thousand tasks make every day lovely. Here’s to the administrative professionals – the true magic behind the scenes! 🌟🥂

We are honoured to work with many children who are connected to the Royal Children’s Hospital (RCH).
Huxley’s story from his Mum Kelly is just one of the many stories of our participants that beautifully captures what RCH means to these families and even some of our own staff. The Good Friday Appeal holds a special place in our hearts, so please give generously today and help us to celebrate kids who deserve to be celebrated today, and every other day, for their bravery, patience and smiles.

“Huxley has spent 233 days of his 15 months of life (just over half) at Royal Children’s Hospital. He was born with complex congenital heart disease, Pierre Robin Sequence, and a few other complications. He has had three open heart surgeries, two jaw surgeries, and one ENT surgery, with more surgeries to follow. The nurses at RCH very quickly became our second family. They hugged us while we cried, they laughed and celebrated the wins, and made sure we looked after ourselves as much as we do Hux. Without their love and support there is no way we could have made it this far through our journey. They are an incredibly special team of people, and we will forever be thankful for them. Not to mention the other families we've met along the way, the volunteers, the therapy staff, and everyone in between. We are so incredibly blessed to have the RCH. We will forever be grateful for the exceptional care and support ourselves and Huxley have received, and will continue to receive, at the RCH.”

On 21 March, choose some socks that are going to get noticed!

They might be mismatched socks or your craziest and most colourful socks, whatever takes your fancy!

The idea is to start a conversation, so when people ask you about your socks you can tell them, “I’m wearing them to raise awareness of Down syndrome”.

And then you can tell them everything you want them to know about Down syndrome.

March 21st is World Down Syndrome Day. This years theme is End the Stereotypes. Check out this awesome ad for the campaign by Assume That I Can | Global World Down Syndrome Day Campaign 2024

Language Acquistion through Motor Planning (LAMP) is a therapeutic approach based on neurological and motor learning principles. The goal is to provide individuals a method of independently and spontaneously expressing themselves in any setting.

There are many reasons why babies, children and adults may require a feeding tube. Tube feeding, also called enteral nutrition, is a way food and drink can get into the body if a person is unable to eat/drink or unable to eat/drink enough.
Food in liquid form, formula, fluids and medicine can be delivered into the stomach or small intestine through a feeding tube.

Our Team of Speech Pathologists, Dietitians and Occupational Therapists are able to support tube feeding and inclusive mealtimes. If you would like more information about how we can help you, please don't hesitate to give us a call on 02 6021 5165 or place a referral via our website!

To find out more about tube feeding this Feeding Tube Awareness Week (4-10 February 2024) visit www.feedingtubeaware.com.au

The water tower in Woodland Grove will illuminate purple 💜 this week for Feeding Tube Awareness Week.

This campaign helps to raise vital awareness and understanding in the community about tube feeding.
