Aged Care and Allied Health

Behind every aged care service is a workforce caring for some of the most vulnerable members of our community. We help providers build safer, more supported environments for the people delivering that care.

How we support

WHS Integration

We recognise that aged care organisations operate in complex environments where workforce risk, safety, and operational performance are closely connected.

Coastara partners with providers to strengthen practical WHS systems while supporting periods of growth, acquisition, and integration. We understand the challenges that come with acquiring facilities across Australia and ensuring WHS systems, teams, and operational practices are effectively aligned.

Our focus is on building safety frameworks that work in real environments, supporting continuity of care, workforce stability, and consistent standards across the organisation.

Our Support Includes

  • Manual handling and injury prevention programs

  • Return to work and injury management support

  • WHS systems development and implementation

  • Risk assessments and hazard identification

  • Incident review and continuous improvement

  • WHS alignment across multiple sites or services

  • Integration of safety systems during growth or acquisition

  • Workforce and operational risk alignment through change

Allied Health

Our foundation is in allied health, with deep experience in physiotherapy and its role within aged care. We understand the demands placed on providers to deliver consistent, high-quality care across complex environments, and support organisations in redesigning their allied health operating model to improve clinical outcomes, workforce sustainability, and financial performance.

Coastara provides experienced allied health professionals to support resident care, rehabilitation, and wellbeing outcomes.

With a strong foundation in physiotherapy, we understand the critical role movement, mobility, and functional recovery play in aged care settings. This clinical perspective shapes how we select and place allied health professionals who can genuinely improve resident outcomes and support multidisciplinary teams.

We focus on clinicians who are not only qualified, but experienced in aged care environments, with the ability to integrate quickly, deliver meaningful outcomes, and contribute to quality of life for residents.

Our Allied Health Services

  • Supporting mobility, rehabilitation, and functional independence across aged care settings. Physiotherapists work with residents to improve strength, reduce falls risk, and maintain movement, while also supporting staff through safe manual handling practices and injury prevention strategies.

  • Supporting residents to maintain independence and function in daily living. Occupational therapists provide functional assessments, equipment prescription, and practical strategies to enhance safety, comfort, and quality of life within aged care environments.

  • Supporting communication, swallowing, and safe mealtime practices within aged care environments. Speech pathologists assess and manage dysphagia, improve communication outcomes, and work with staff to support safe and effective care during meals.

  • Supporting strength, conditioning, and long-term health outcomes for aged care residents. Exercise physiologists deliver tailored programs focused on chronic disease management, mobility, and preventative health to maintain function and reduce decline.
